    Server Wide Farming Boost: extra unprocessed drugs and ores when you gather them.

    Server Wide Processing Speed Boost: faster processing for drugs and ores.

    These would last for a set amount of time (ex: 1hour).
    These would, I believe, fit EULA.
    Once Donor farming/processing advantages go away, these would be nice options.

    During a Farming Boost, people are more likely to go mining, possibly creating a new dynamic where people care more about mines. And during a Processing Speed Boost, we would expect to see fierce competition for the bases.

    Its nice and all, but then you get @randomcitizen1 over here looking at it as "The sheriff signal is calling me! I must arrest the bandits!" when he sees the processing speed boost and such.

    @Mario
    Overall I think its a good idea and I really think it would help the server. I think a reasonable price should be set up for it to. That and there should be a menu like /booster that would bring up all the boosters you still have left.

    My ideas with the pricing would be like this
    1 booster - 2$
    5 boosters - 8$
    10 boosters 18$

    So on and so forth. Like I stated above the /booster menu would allow you to use them if you got multiples at a later time.

    Well thank you for taking your time to read this!

    Seems good. Only problem is if there's a sheriff online when you activate it, and you can't process any drugs because of it, you'd feel like its a waste of money and wouldn't buy it again, but that's just part of the game.

    I mean that would kind of suck if you did a boost and you were never able to process the drugs yourself due to like bandits hording them. What if you could make a tip system (I know it's not original, but if you look at it, it's a really good way to approach it), so the player would see it worth the boost. Or perhaps, you have to pay a small fee for the boost (this would only work if you have to pay a large fee for a solo boost, in game currency of course). That fee will go to the player who activated the boost, and it will go in his/her bank.

    I actually think buying things go to the whole server and for other players to activate it, they need to pay in game currency. Or pay in vote points.

    You buy with IRL money a bomb for a global xp boost. This would give the whole server the xp boost. Plus doing currency/vote points = less money to keep the server alive. I can only think of one server that does this and its quite helpful to the "not rich" players.

    I am pretty sure this is against the EULA in minecraft.
    Don't know if they will be able to do this, since boosters still give an advantage.

    If this server dies, I'll open a small one for a little while so brawl players can still connect for a little bit. Let's hope it doesn't come to that

    Nope, It gives all a advantage. Not just a single person which is against EULA.

    What about people offline? People that were not on the time when the gkit was given have less of an advantage than the ones that recieved the gkit since they were on.

    "Can users purchase something that affects the entire server, such as a temporary XP boost?
    Yes, but everyone who can access the server must be able to use the feature, regardless of whether they purchased it or not."

    These type of boosts fit EULA, and there are EULA compliant servers that use Server-wide boosts.
