EULA Update

First, commander, seargent, black uruk and longbeard should get slightly nerfed, because there are no armored trolls anymore *Except black uruk*
Second, they become expensive point classes. (Lets say, 5K points or more)
Third: The Hero and Lord donators will have access to this classes. because they already paid for them. (Also encourages people to donate)
Note: This should only be for these classes, because they balance the map on each map they are in. Without these classes, you just major unbalances. (Minas tirith for example) Also, the fact that the Lord Donators lost almost everything from the EULA. This will incourage people to donate for these kinda weak but yet better then the average class.

??? None of those classes will exist anymore! All donor classes are being removed, did you not read the post at all?
Color chat?
This is gonna backfire on mojang now the majority of donor kid parents are gonna be pissed off. instead of just the stupid ones. Mojang will have like 10 million emails in their inbox complaining about lost perks.
This is angering me. I get that Eula is stupid, but why can't you do what you did with naz rig and berzerker for at least one class per side per map. Us higher donors kept some good stuff, but,Man, the lower ones...they just lost everything. No unite, and no classes. And that means it's harder for them to get points he normal way and get Rog or naz the normal way. And no free points daily...they just got completely and utterly screwed over. Please consider this
This is nothing compared to the men of the Volga. Imagine going up that River.

Idea:
Hero gets 50 pts a day
Lord gets 100 pts a day
Legend gets 250 pts a day
Veteran gets 500 pts a day
Sage gets 800 pts a day
King gets 1000 pts a day.
Considering the fact that the classes people mostly donated for are nazgul, balrog, and berserker are now point classes, it only seems fair to up the points per day for each rank.
Another idea is for a donation process in which a one dollar donation equals x points, so people donate little amounts for points.
Hope this helps.
Oh sorry just looked this over and noticed no daily point bonuses...... anyway how does point bonuses affect gameplay, i dont get it.

Not allowed by Eula because you can buy stuff with the points that affects the game e.g. Point classes or flamethrower
I can't find the source,and tell me if I am wrong, but I think I remember Tim saying the main reason he needed donations was for the anti-lag stuff. So if that was, not completetly removed but, reduced then it would be easier to keep the server up while times are going bad?
For cosmetics you could have pets in the lobbies in lms, ls and siege. I don't know about anyone else but I would probably donate a bit more for a bat as a pet

Tim, how much money do we really need for this server per month? Cause honestly *nudges people next to him, kicks shins from under the table and flails elbows around hitting people, all discretely of course* there are a lot of us who are willing to donate if the server really needs help. I was thinking about donating for hero and I still might, idk, but if the server needs that 5$ then I'll do it in a heartbeat. Won't you guys too? *repeats his nudging, kicking shins and elbowing*
Server takes about 300$ a month at least, but sometimes we have extra expenses like for anti-DDOS, for banners we let people draw and advertising.
Also I work over 50 hours a week on the server, and if I don't earn any money from it myself I'll have to spend less time on it and instead spend time on a job.

Classes like NazGul, etc are only free for Sages and Kings who donated BEFORE the EULA.
If we'd do this with some hero/lord classes new donators still wouldn't get them and thus it wouldn't encourage donating more at all.
We will be trying to add more cosmetics for even the lower ranks, but this will take some time and suggestions.
The reason we kept NazGul, Balrog and Beserker is that they are very important classes, NazGul being a main gameplay mechanic on Minas (which'd be a shame to disappear), Beserker being the only way to properly take the wall, and Balrog just adding a lot more fun to the Great Halls map.
You can expect me adding more point classes to replace some donor classes, but they'd have to be paid for by you like everybody else.
Mojang disallows giving points or other ingame currency for donating, so I can't give you the daily donator bonus.

So... you work seven hours a day...
How much do you build? I not more than one or two hours. Hardly even that, as of late...
You've got like no bug reports atm...
And to my knowledge you aren't coding anything new.
What do you do when you're working?

The past week I've been on holiday, at other times I consistently add new features, new maps, build new maps, work on Erebor and other projects, manage EpicQuestz projects, manage website, reply to stuff on the forums, talk with staff on skype about server cases and much more.

Rofl.
Point is I work on this server a lot, all of my spare time is spent on it, so it's fair I keep a bit of money myself as well.
