    As we all know, donating to WarZ is essential to being successful. In light of the event, this issue has been proven more than ever. What basically happened was a giant team battle of nondonors (staff) and donors (members). The staff resembled nondonors because they could not tp after they died. However, they had guns that were much stronger than the donors, which is very uncommon. After 30 minutes of fighting, the donors managed to kill the nondonor staff. Only 30 minutes. These donors that killed the staff used tp, their Ender chest for loot, and had a major advantage. If a regular nondonor player died durring the fight, they wouldn't have time to even return to the site with gear. It really isn't fair to non donors. With the new map, donors can save 5-10 minutes of walking time by just teleporting. Once they teleport they can save countless hours of looting by opening their Ender chest.

    I hope you understand my view of this. Basically, donors need a nerf to make this game more fair. I'm all on favor of removing tpa compeltely, but that will never happen. Please give feed back.

    Also, do not start a flame war about this. I don't know who booted who in the event, ect. Your comments will be removed.

    Finally, don't just comment things such as, if you remove these no one will donate! Make suggestions on what else could be added/nerfed.

    Although I do think that donors have a big advantage over other players, especially if they're in a team. I feel like removing the TP feature completely would result in people not wanting to buy donor ranks, or a significant drop in interest.

    I don't think they should remove the tp command completely. But as Gigga said, they might make editations to the command in the future so it won't be so op.

    It's fine really. If you can afford a PC that can run MC good enough to play WarZ ($650+) and an MC Account ($27) then you can afford VIP or MVP.

    I think the issue with a lot of people (me included) is that parents don't always want their kids to spend real money on a video game. Especially if it only lasts for a month/s.

    But it is quite annoying when you kill someone and they instantly TP back to their friend, grab their loot and continue the fight. And although you may not be able to do it more than every 2-4 minutes, some people can TP back as soon as they die because they have no time left to wait to TP.

    You pay $10 a month and you get a /tpa every 2 minutes AND 7 seconds of a zombie / player being able to hit you thus canceling the TP

    Yea I get that. I just tell my parents it's my money and they let me spend it.

    Whilst all of that is true. You have to admit that you have been killed at least once by people TPing back to their team and resuming the fight. And whilst I am all for the idea of donating and TPing; I just think that they should nerf the TP rate a tiny bit to make it more fair for none donors.

    $10/month
    $120/year

    I think it should stay

    I agree with the donors keeping the TP and enderchest abilities. I just think that the TP should be nerfed slightly - something such as the timer starts after you die, instead of after the time you last TPed.

    That would require custom coding.

    They have the tp delay set to '120' in the essentials.config.yml

    And the custom message in the essentials.locale.properties

    They should have "tp" once a life, but having to wait 5 min after respawn to tp. and for VIP 7-10mins after they respawn. It would help out with this problem a ton! It would make it so you can kill a donor and not worry for them to tp for a while. Constructive criticism to this idea is welcome, it may need to be changed a bit. I'm saying this even though I'm a MVP, that says something!

    People payed to have those tp's, they do what they want with it although I admit that playing against a team that does not have access to TP is quite unfair.

    I think this idea is exactly what we need to nerf the TP cooldown.

    Buying MVP and buying a MC/computer are different things. MVP expires, while the computer and account do not. My biggest problem for donating was the fact my donation would expire. This would solve op problems though.

    My idea is not to remove donating from this server. My idea is to change/nerf the server's donation perks.

    Well tpa's might eventually get removed with the Minecraft EULA thing, as people who donate wont have access to /tpa commands.

    You have to use paypal. I tried putting $50 into mine with MoneyPak and it asked for my SS number. the only way to get money into that is to be paid or give up SS.

    I think that ender chests should spawn randomly as items like tents! They disappear after the server resets and everyone can use them. There was a plugin called "Better Enderchests" that gave more slots to the players.
