So what do Donors have that they did in 1.0, what is so much more generous? Please, enlighten me.

I'm not so sure thats a straight answer to the question.
From playing 1.0, and then into 2.0, I will agree, that some things where taken away and some given in.
If, I did still play Kiwike, I would feel like a lot is taken away from. I was an active player among Kiwike, and not a donor, and others where to. But I didn't have a choice wether or not to donate, As money is thin among my family. Paying Twice the amount I payed to get Minecraft, just to fly a ship around, is quite the asking price. The whole point of Donating back then was to get added benefits to the game that where not needed would be nice. Such as /sneak, and so on. But adding such a feature like this and making it, Sponsor only, is far from user friendly.
Again, I understand the no junk in the air thing. But like Asdf said, getting the wool, the gold, and so on, is already a pain enough. Most player who just wan't to make trash would not spend the time into getting the resources to let alone make it.
This is another disadvantage to all us Non-donors. I have to walk to Maven. You can teleport.
I have to walk home. You can teleport.
I have to carry a load of trading items one at a time across the continent, you have a flying ship with chest on it.
Its another unfair advantage that will be implemented to make our lives harder, and yours easier.

Well then you tell us how you would do the donor perks, would you?

Thats not my job Smiley
All i'm saying is, It was annoying with the teleporting and all. But I could put up with it, You payed money, you outta get something in return.
But this is to much of an advantage to have to pay twice the amount of the game just to get.


RE: Kiwiships for sponsors only? - andy66252 - 08-01-2011

maybe sponsors could build more than one ship and make ships under other peoples names so they could edit the ship and have it. this would be a fairly good solution but that's just my 2 cents

We get to fly a ship around the map and transport goods, people, and explore. Just as easy as walking, but the only difference is you can hold more things and you are in the air. And like Yotta said, if everyone could do this, the first thing people would do is run around looking for supplies to make their airship and thus the lagging of the server would begin. We can't do that, so he limited it to Sponser's only. Sure, I understand why you are a bit angry at the fact that you can't fly an airship, but in the long run its going to be a good decision.


RE: Kiwiships for sponsors only? - asdfasdflkjty911 - 08-01-2011

I agree with Cell. 100%

First, suprise, suprise, your the one to counter my argument.
Second, I agree with restrictions on Airship building and such, but making it Donor only is to much of a restriction. If you where in the situation of most Kiwike-ians, you would know how we feel. But you are not, your a Donor, either way you win and you can fly one.
I just want a reasonable solution to minimize the amount of junk, and lag on the server. Not, $30 or you can't fly. I don't have the answer to what i'm putting out there, but there are many solutions. The license system. And so on and so forth.



RE: Kiwiships for sponsors only? - Android - 08-02-2011

Well we've got our license system, a fee of 50G, and to be eligible for the license you must be a donor, of any rank.

How's that?


RE: Kiwiships for sponsors only? - asdfasdflkjty911 - 08-02-2011

Yeah I think it should be available for all who donated, because they will not be leaving the server right after building a ship, and if they do its for more reasons than "im bored" and it probably wont be a permanent time. Then, making a system that lets non donors use them, such as buying a license, 50g.
