Maybe I redirected my spat at the wrong person Russell, but as you can
tell, I am slowly getting attacked because I use an ad to keep my
servers up.
The reason I made my servers was because of lotus which I have repeated
way too many times already, but I did it is because the donator system
at lotus gave donators a semi-admin powers which is why I also went more
and more to ads instead of donators. Pretty much any donator if they
wanted a friend in the server immediately started a vote to kick a
player. They also muted people simply because the person was young. So
when asked "can I buy admin" for my servers I have repeatedly stated
"No" because I know it will lead to abuse, which I don't want.

Oh that's sweet Russel :)
I didn't either. The more you get caught in the more you end up like
just another McDonalds. Iv seen a lot since I started running servers
6 years ago, these types of ads are new and are being abused.

Sorry, I didn't mean to seem like I was attacking you. I am just
curious what would bring you to the decision of setting up ads in the
motd. Is your goal to try and grow your community to the size of
Lotus?
Before I set up my servers I played on DWN's servers and modeled
mine after his. I didn't even know ads in the motd were a thing until
this thread.

Im going off on your topic since you seem to be attacking me. Lets
talk about donations then. I used to play on lotusclan which had
heavy
amounts of donators. These donators were pretty much given semi
admin
rights on the servers where they could do what ever the hell they
wanted and no one could do anything about it. I left and built my
own
servers because of lotusclan and the fact that donators were
harming
players that were fun, and enjoyable to have on the server.
A successful [Owner]: provide an enviorment where any player, can
join and have fun without fearing segregation because of age, race,
location, or ethnicity.

How do you define being a successful admin?

Actually I don't. The way I have come to slowly realize is that
people weren't going to donate in my bracket of players. i.e. the
Free
to Play Generation.
For me to be successful I need servers with MOTDs.
