Honestly doing the backdoor route of payments will work, a lot of people i know will pay to keep the server alive by monthly. I'm not sure if they care for donations rewards or not, but i'd think they would be down if it meant to keep NA pk alive a little longer.

Currently, NA is dead since school started, may be for another monthish. Clarky could hold the server up with more donations currently, or we could wait and have it back up in a months time, save a month, and/or see how many people would like to donate, to see if there would be enough to keep the server going. I honestly would be able to donate probably $30 (or more) a month myself, after I am promoted at work in about a months time.

Personally I think that letting it go down a month for everyone to get readjusted with school would be a better option. Everyone is burnt out of PK rn or can't because school just started. However in about a month or twos time people are gonna miss it again like they always do and talk of clans reforming will get them excited, then the server goes back up with clans already formed and waiting for it.

We're giving the fact that school started too much weight when it comes to PK dying. PK didn't die because school started, it died because the clans either got bored/died or disbanded. If there are no clans to play on the server, any amount of donations would be a complete waste. Some people also still seem to think that donating to maintain the server would "keep" PK alive, when in actuality the mod has been dead for at least a week and a half now.

170$ a month is pretty steep. Maybe down grade the server? The lag isn't going to leave regardless if you have the best server box we've already established that.

Had to upgrade because the community complained and stopped getting on "because it lags". It runs on a shitty engine and is quite an old game....if the community stops complaining on lag, then it would be a lot cheaper . Get the community behind you first, then it may be downgraded to help lol.

That was before the server could barley get 40 people on tonight and before everybody realized lag can't be eradicated on this old ass game so to deal with it, I mean the way I see it, down grade a little bit until the server is in actual full use and when it's back just so it's affordable in the mean time instead of paying a ridiculous amount of money for something that won't be used to it's potential. It's like paying for a Xtra large pizza then only eating 2 slices and it's just you, and now your just going to have depressing cold pizza and the crust will never be the same again.

I get your point, but reheated pizza is better then normal/cold pizza anyday.
