Interesting. Although I'm not a big fan of the banning perk. That seems like it'd be easily abused...

Although, on the flip side, these servers must be damn expensive, so there's gotta be a big incentive to draw a lot more people to donate and stop being so cheap.

People can easily complain on the forums if they got banned and besides... It's a Voteban so everyone is forced to choose Yes (1) or No (2).

That's true, I just still imagine most players are immature snot rags, but as I age, most other gamers age with me (and also mature).

Just curious, what sort of donation (money wise) are we looking at in order to get these privileges?

Wow, this seems easy to donate. I really hate paypal and refuse to use it... so it's nice that I can just set this shit up on my credit card. Set it and forget it.

Cool stuff, I'll be donating for sure. I trust this is good news for you Mana!

You don't need an account though . You can just pay on the spot.

Curious about the 'reserved slot' aspect of the package. Ive tried to join a full server but it just gives the usual full message.

Is there a 'hard' limit to how many players can be on if the game is already running 32-33 people? Or does the player need to be defined on that server so that it allows them in beyond the population cap?

[Pavement 0]

You can't join a full game. But once a server hits 32/33 players, only reserved slot holders can join.

Ah ok, that makes sense. Thanks

Which server was that?

No, anyone can join when the server is at 32/33. Only reserves can join at 33/33 and 34/33 is when a reserver has joined.

Thats strange.. Before I donated, it would tell me at 32/33 "kicked: reserved slot" and at 33/33 "server full"

That was probably the server with the broken reserves:

It's been fixed for a while now.

2fort West Coast 76.74.154.156:27015 gives me 'could not connect - full' at 33/33 despite a reserve slot (just checked, was the same yesterday). Not a big deal, always someone that leaves under five minutes and Im in with the steam auto-try.
