Casio Posted July 1, 2009 Report Posted July 1, 2009 It seems to me, that a lot of the reason I don't donate is because I am impatient, and would rather not wait for my donations. Theres a fairly new CP called FluxCP that is both opensource and skinnable. It also has a donation CP built in that utilizes the Paypal API. It is my suggestion that we start using FluxCP, because people tend to donate more, if they know their donations are coming instantly. Also this would reduce the time spent handling donations, and could be used for relaxing or other things <3
Ophelia Posted July 1, 2009 Report Posted July 1, 2009 What happens when someone wants to donate for one of the 100's of unreleased headgears? I like the way it is now.
Casio Posted July 1, 2009 Author Report Posted July 1, 2009 What happens when someone wants to donate for one of the 100's of unreleased headgears? I like the way it is now. You only list in the CP, what is available for donation. You like the way it is now, but do you ever donate? If you don't donate, then your vote in this really wouldn't matter now would it? Also, thats 500 dollars toward the server. And nothing different happens, they get 100s of unreleased headgears, like they would anyway.
prrti kwl guy Posted July 1, 2009 Report Posted July 1, 2009 I've donated a lot and I'd prefer the current system where I actually get to communicate with an intelligent person rather than an error-prone paypal reading interface, which would probably not be self-coded (because I sure as hell am not coding it, FluxCP is probably a piece of shit and I doubt Genesis has ever done work with socket API). The current system provides me with a lot more flexibility, and if you can't wait the few hours it usually takes for my donations to arrive, you are either American, an asshole or an impatient kid; In your case all 3.

I have donated once before so obviously my opinion counts, if you want to play it that way.
Casio Posted July 1, 2009 Author Report Posted July 1, 2009 FluxCP was coded by Paradox and company. And is by far the best free CP available to date. Its amazingly easy to customize, and if i donate when i get home from work at 1 am. How long does it take? There would still be room for the email system if you really want to. But the internet is about instant satisfaction, not a "look how cool i am for waiting because i live in the Philippines" contest. Talking about how i must be American just shows how ignorant you are. I am indeed an asshole, but that is because people like you are still allowed to connect to the internet, despite my tireless efforts. Also, most donators, never TALK to the "person" of which you speak. And even if we do, we end up being told to send it in an email anyway.
Genesis Posted July 1, 2009 Report Posted July 1, 2009 If we ever decide to do this, it would be a custom coded donation module. For now, no. Thank you for your suggestion though.
