Absolute "no" from me.
First of all - implement this and you'll get every donor flamed in each topic. This will happend since it is usual community reaction to any kind of "by-polarity". Do you want to be flamed the hell out just for being donor? If you ansered positive - continue pushing this.
Second - i will think about donating to this site as soon as "scammer accusation" concept will work as it should be and not as it looks now. I'm not intrested in saying "thanks" to administration, who does not apply enough effort to protect traders
I dont care if people want to flame me, to seriously have your feelings hurt by a flame off of someone on jsp, they need to be some kind of master of Insults, or youre being a baby.
The scammer accusations concept does work, but its people not using Mediators as often that causes this.

I think this might ruin the spirit of donation. This makes it so either way, you're buying something. As of now, a donation is a donation, pure and simple. If you add these benefits to it, it's just like buying FG - you're purchasing extra rights or features.
it would if you made them very significant, but he wouldnt have to (though he may want to, who knows whats in Njags head o.O)
With such small benefits they wouldnt be worth "buying" so they would just come with the donation, much like donor forums already do.

Ditto
You shouldnt get anything extra because you have money
Same point i make with liviam, everyone can afford donations.

Seperating people who can afford, and those who can't is just another step of categorizing people into classes. The stars are what you get, and that is benefit enough. I don't think money should be a factor which determines status in a community; what matters, is honesty, kindness, helpfullness and being an overall good member.
I really dislike this idea.
im afraid, you are wrong sir. Its not a matter of if one can afford, its a matter of Priorities.
i doubt very highly there are people that are very active on D2jsp, that can NOT spend ANY many other than to pay for their living quarters, Food, and gas.
If anyone fits that criteria, well they need to stop being active on D2jsp. There is nobody who "cant" afford it. It is a matter as who would want to. This increases that want to, even if it was just to show appreciation to begin with.
