Default Donaters should not see ads

I believe people who donate should not have to see ads still. ^^

Donators donated because they wanted to support the site, not because they want the benefits of it.

Though its not a completely bad idea to give donators recognition, things begin to fall apart when people who have paid begin to find too many advantages.

This makes us no better than those pesky corporations that separate "free" users from "premium" users. Also, if this were to happen, donator users will begin to get egotistical, and the community falls apart.

Well, thats just my input.

By having ads up I think people are already supporting the site that way..

Yeah That would be a bit discriminatory. I had to experience it in RS (Runescape) and in AQ(Adventure Quest). There was all this stuff that "members" could do that non-members couldn't. It made me feel left out, along with all of the other-nonmembers...

The business life was never a fair one.

Though it wouldn't be a bad idea...I kinda see what kit's saying. Donations are just that, 'Donations'. They're not 'Premium Membership'.

Just can't see it happening. You can always opt to install an ad-blocking program, or get an extension for Firefox.

You should go the sleepywood.net-way. I am also a donator there and you should block adds for donators (and aswell hold donator auction for forum perks). It's quite fun and it's supportive.

I dont see any ads on my screen so I dont really care for it :P but I'm gonna have to say that donatee's should still see ads :P like kitaek said its because they want to, not because theres something in it for them, I love fair games and sites because you KNOW your getting the full experience and theres still a cash shop which enhances your gaming personally, not by a freaking huge gap but only for personal satisfaction(referring to clothes available in the cs for maplestory)
