Hey Guys I have recently made a server and people are offering to donate and I was just wondering is this ethical and is this taking advantage of people? FYI My server donation ranks are very cheap such as around 12$ for moderator, 8$ for Donator + and 4$ for Donator and a few more.... 4$ For 4000 and 10$ for gamemode 1. P.S I don't need any help with the technical side of things im pretty sure im got that covered. P.P.S I would like to hear both sides. Thank you so so much for your time
Use Buycraft to set up donations. I wouldn't give Donor's Moderator or GameMode try giving them commands like (/hat) (/fly) Or even a certain amount of locked chests?

Taking donations for your server is not taking advantage of the people. You pay for your server out of your own pocket, and if they wish to support it then you should let them. I would navigate away from selling Administrator/Moderator ranks, as this usually causes problems.
Then there is the "moral" side, where you see your Minecraft server as a goldmine that generators your own pocket change for Slurpees at the 7-11 . I wouldn't say there is anything wrong with that either (Depending on how you go about it), but then again that's my own opinion. That, however, would be considered payments instead of donations.
Buycraft is an excellent plugin for your server, I've made over £350 since the beginning of December 2012. But I also agree with the other guys that you do NOT want to give players:
-Ranks
-Gamemode
-Fly
-Kick or any other moderative commands.
What's the IP for your server? I'd love to join
