The reason the people will not donate is because there are not enough people playing the server and the reason there aren't enough people playing on the server is because it is under advertised when it is online.
(Basically people are afraid they're going to donate and the server is going to be up for 1 month, and then shut off after that month when there are no more donations)
I propose.
-We get the server up for a month. (I'm going to donate as soon as i get in touch w/ tagz)
-Every second that the server is on we have it advertised on all possible sites
-We offer other methods of donation such as through mailing to a P.O box
-We offer different rewards for donating other than staff, such as a cool weapon are Armour that is not obtainable unless you donate.
- I know that this is a lot to do, but if every player makes an effort to get the server name out there, word will start to spread and people will donate to obtain the rewards
