All you're saying is "well but I'll just make it expensive so people don't buy it!". But they can still buy it. It doesn't matter if it's $10 or $1000, a rich kid can still get the best equipment and be better than everyone else just because he has money. That doesn't really seem fair at all, even for an open tibia server. You say that you think "donations destroyed open tibia" then you go ahead and do the same thing? Pretty hypocritical, isn't it?Well if you read the entire server advertisement, you wont be able to actually even get the best equipment by donating because of how much it would cost. The most I'd ever think someone would donate for is a Tier 4 set which is 125$ for the entire set, or you can obtain is in game by building towards it. Also, the power to donate ratio isn't very high because you can spend 125$ on a Tier 4 set, or someone can work towards a Tier 3 set which would probably take a week to get, and it wouldn't be that much weaker than a Tier 4.
That's cool and all but how does that have anything to do with what I said? People will play when they're using the computer and just leave the bot on every time they're away or AFK since there's no punishment for botting. There's literally no benefit to not leaving the bot on while sleeping, for example. Meanwhile legit players will have to play much more than botters to catch up. You're just encouraging botting by not punishing them at all.Also, there is a lot of systems I have in store for dealing with people who play the game fairly, such as; Experience creature raids, events, NPC killing quests etc.. I also have an advanced system that won't allow botters to loot unique drops from killing monsters. My goal is to make sure everyone is happy on the server regardless of how they play it. You'll have to wait and see.
Therefore, if you're set on the "no punishing botters" rule, what I propose is: if players are gonna bot while they're away, why not just make it simple and introduce something like trainers that give EXP instead of weapon skills? That way at least every player will have the same opportunities and the spawns won't get flooded with botters.
