And to go back to topic, i may add something like this soon, and have thought about doing something like this before. i have logs of all donations but they are in a text format seperated by each donation. Although it does now ( for just over a month ) it never added up the total donation for a single account. so i would need to do some 'paperwork' adding each donations to thier Steam_ID in the database so i could see who and how much people have donated as a 'whole'.

ok maybe less than a few weeks, skrill is back up as a test ( you will see the donation part twice, scroll down ) il keep my eye on it as im not sure if it will work. but you will get the rewards regardless. it just may take a little longer than the paypal option

The phone payment ive looked at in the past, and indeed, the company used to deal with SMS payments take a large chunk out of the money donated/paid. Also the skrill option i will be looking into again over the new few weeks and get that back up and running hopefully

I'm not convinced

looks like rabbit hole

Yeah i agree more admins are needed, But unfortunately i have a strict policy on who receives it, yes, Admins are almost always chosen from active and regular donators as its fair for those helping the server costs to be a bigger part of the community and have the control. And like a post i previously had and need to remake on these new forums is how admins are chosen and what i look in players who should have a chance at becoming one. Active, Mature attitude, Sensible and also knows how to have fun with players and handle situations well.

Level 1 admins, to be honest, are just a test to make sure they definitely can be trusted in the little commands they have and to monitor their behavior and attitude towards other players and the rules of Sammys-ZPS, and in all honesty it should only be a couple of weeks at most a level 1 admin is in power until they are either removed or promoted, and i have been letting the levels glide longer than they should have. But i will take a good look tomorrow into the active players and donation list to see if their are any eligible players that can be added, and a fix to the admin/member power issue, the !vkick !vban plugin was only briefly made and I've not done much with it to resolve issues like the ones stated.

But in all honestly, i am on throughout the day as my job allows me to change and assist the server with issues like this, just a simple message and chance are i can deal with it, any 60 min ban can be easily changed to Permanent bans if i am told, and any other higher level admin who has the power.

Well thanks a ton all for the help on this, the ad's are now running and seem to be working for the language set on the users STEAM account i do appreciate it!. Danke, Dank, спасибо, obrigado, merci !

Also, there are a few more languages that could be added which would be nice at some point, so any further help would be appreciated!

Well C4 drop has been increased x3 as of yesterday, and yes the weapon mods are low ive noticed that although they have a decent spawn rate. we may keep it a C4 Drop server only, no explosives which should be fun. and the server will require less wipes. Keeping Decay on bases at a higher rate to decay aswell.

hmm only thing i can suggest is making sure you use "

so;

/ban "joux" "0" "speedhack" "1"
/ban "joux" "30" "Flaming"

You can also now ban via SteamID if they have no name or a 'difficult' name to target.

/bansid "STEAM_0:0:86688800" "0" "Speedhack" "1"

Admin bans should be fine.. it would have only affected the community ban command.

It was banning on name and if people had some weird characters or no name it wouldn't ban, switched to STEAM ID. so it should all be working now properly! ( as of next map from this post )

A Little more this time the \x01 and \x04 are colour codes so keeping them in would be helpfull for me. ( \x04 = green , \x01 = default)

But translate away !

"\x04Welcome to Sammys Balanced EXP Upgrades!"

Yeah lex a big error.. ooooo

Skins given out! WC on !vip Menu

Donations packs sent out !vip in game to recieve!

As new servers and updates are flavor of the month. I have configured a 7 Days to Die Server as well!

I will configure admins when required and needed. But the server is a 16 man Server at the moment and can be found on IP; 178.32.57.35:25000

Enjoy!

Thanks for all the help so far guys! Very good knowing new players regardless of thier first language will get the basic idea of how to use the upgrade systems
