donators have the advantage... well probably...

If the Donation is not like 7 Tao Gunka's in one equip or something like it that can help the donators to fire more lazers than Dr.Octagonopus, then Players have a chance winning. It does not happen too much times, but the donators usually get too overconfident because of the equips, and die for normals a lot of times.
Buuuuuut, it depends heavily on class.
You can't get a Donator Gunslinger agaisn't a Champion and expect the gunslinger to win, because even with some donators gunslingers are obsolete(Again, if donators aren't strong enough).

The Advantages changes accordingly to the people and the items, so you can never know it.

Skill should > donates. Average player < donates.

Then again, if they have a god item/s along with custom all stats +10000...then yeah. Donators usually win only cause of their gear.
Title: Re: normal players vs. donators?
Post by: Guest on Jun 08, 2008, 09:43 PM
mainly it depends on what the items are

but over all a donator would get the advantage....

absolutely right.i forgot to specify the server
but i am playing mid high rate that has only TGK,MP,GR
mvp cards to choose from.(donators only)
below are donator's items.

Lord Kaho's Horn
Tiger Mask
Alice Doll
Magic Eyes
Crescent Helm
Kabuki Mask
Silver Tiara
Note Headphone
Helm of Darkness
Captain's Hat
Custom LKH Flu Mask - STR + 5 , INT + 5 VIT + 10 , AGI + 10 LUK + 20 , MDEF + 10
Custom LKH Angel Wing - STR + 5 , INT + 5 VIT + 10 , AGI + 10 LUK + 20 , MDEF + 10
Custom LKH Crunchy Toast - STR + 5 , INT + 5 VIT + 10 , AGI + 10 LUK + 20 , MDEF + 10

if donators have 2-4 of these items especially the custom ones
im pretty sure they will become godly :o :D :o
:'(dang...can't wait to be a donator... :'(

Title: Re: normal players vs. donators?
Post by: Pandora on Jun 09, 2008, 08:53 AM
Yeah, then with those items for sure donator are getting an edge, specially Lord Kaho's Horn and the Custom LKH. Doesn't mean they will be unbeatable, in many occasions skills (not the ones you invest points into, your personal skills at playing the game) will beat donation gears, but if you're up against a skillful donator with better gear than you're doomed XD

I could see someone leaving a server where donates were that overpowered. can't say I'd want to stay. pvp would be beyond a joke if a NOVICE can kill you, never mind a skilled sinx or sniper with those gears.

Title: Re: normal players vs. donators?
Post by: Loki on Jun 10, 2008, 08:50 AM
It depends on the items that they give out if a player donates. I would've vote for normal players because some players knows that they're good enough to obtain donates later on. But a donator will still own early on.

Well, another good move I'll take is to talk to the donor, and explain the meaning of donation, and it's not to scare off the players, but to support the server. I'll make him aware that anything he do stupid will be his consequence - no playmate.

i mean MOST servers only ask for donations to help pay for their server
and the items they give are only ment to be a thank you gift


but the problem only arises when the "thank you gift" is too powerful and gives someone an advantage over the other

Haha...I've always wonder. Why not just change the word 'donate' to 'buy'.

But I guess there's something in the law stating that you can't gain profit for hosting RO, they changed the word 'buy' to 'donate'. Player's buy their items to lvl, hunt and PvP better. Only a few donate honestly.

All of the donors just want themselves to be treated specially, and likewise most of them are immune to punishments..

in some server,selling items/zeny for real money is strictly probihited.
but ive seen that some donors violated this rules and did that
freely without worrying about facing the consenquences...  >:(
ksing/looting and being harassed by donors is a common problem too...
if an average player guilty on any of these rules,they get baned instantly...

That just means, the server owner have a business of their own and is profiting from it. A server with expensive dedicated host. Is there a server with this type of owner? Filthy rich and wasting money on random  people?

Uh, donators will win against the normal players.

This question is tough and similar to this:

Who will win?  Super powered humans with the ability to do things that you can't do OR your normal average friend across the street?

Either way, just like someone stated earlier, it depends on the GMs first, then skills, then it depends on what kinds of donation powers you get and then it's donators, then players, then noobs.

Nah better it would be this way:

Lickers > Donors > Normal Players

Lickers are people who are good enough in licking the admin's a** to become a GM or beg donation items to a GM. Therefore they are far superior than donors and players.

Without premiums, no donation. So private servers keep on improving their "premiums"

You do realize that most donators have less skills?

It's not a rule that either 1 of those will own anything.

You need to think that:

- There's more normal players than donators.
- Therefore most likely the best skilled will be among the no donators.
- A donator can or not get stuff.
- A donator can or not be a nooblet.

Said that, we never know :o

Its up to the mods if that post is a spam or not.

Donates should be there to support the server. The thank you gives must be reasonable as well, like Santa Suit or Summer Suit etc. Donates should mean that the person who donates gain nothing while the person who gets the donate use it for something good.

Admins tend to seduce people with godly equips. That's why people 'buy' the items for their advantage and the admin gains money.

It happens. Some people believe that donating is the same as buying rare items, instead of wanting to help the server. It's really up to the GMs and Admin not to make donate items so unbalanced. Many servers suffer this way..... like Anthem whose players are split ingame with tenson between donators and normal players.

Okay..? Either way, it's still a donation.

If a big server wiped after recieving $4000+ in donations, the players couldn't sue them.

It depends on what type of server you're playing. Trying PvP in RebirthRO against donors. They have 2 +30 all stat headgear(Upper and Lower) with 4 slots and a +15 headgear(mid) with 4 slots too.

Post by: Descent on Oct 09, 2008, 05:52 PM
There's nothing wrong with donating to a server. However, donating for items that are mostly broken is hilarious and makes me laugh, especially on certain servers.

When I got back into RO in 2005, I was playing on EShadowRO, which was a completely donator-only server.

Some of the issues with it:

- ONLY Donators could be Level 255. You can't be 254 if you haven't donated.
- "Donation" Lord Kaho Horns - 4 slots and double the stats of the original version.
- Donation wings came in two flavours - broken and even more broken. First set of wings was +10 to all stats, and 3 slots. Second set was +20 to all, and 4 slotted.
- "Styx Dragon Card" - The new name for Detale, or at least there...it was apparently a test card that the admin's friend thought up. Unfortunately, it became a donation.

"Random Chance to cause "Dragon Breathe", which deals 9999 damage to the enemy upon physical damage."

Only Bathory Card could stop it, thankfully. It was an Armour card, to boot, so a non-donator that didn't know if its presence would get chewed up.

- You could donate a certain amount to get 255 on any stat you want. People who donated in excess would walk around with practically a GM build, all 255s.
- God Items - Megjingard, Sleipnir, and Brisingamen were donation only. So unless you wanted to fork over 1B to an already rich donator, kiss your chances at Megs goodbye.

Needless to say, I didn't care much for that, so I made sure to make non-donation characters that could stomp the living hell out of the donators. After a few months I made enough Zeny to buy two Megs and a Moonlight Flower Card, and made my way into PVP, where my guildmates and I destroyed the donate kids left and right.

Also, because you could donate for MVP Cards, one of the donators spread a rumor that Incantation Samurai/Samurai Specter Card's effect didn't work unless if you donate for it. I was lucky enough to get the card from one of my hunts, and was doing 8K mainhand damage on a non-EDP, double dagger Sin X.

Fun times. Even with all of its faults, I still loved that server and miss it to this day.

Donators have the advantage if we were to have both players with the same amount of skill in RO.
