    Would it be possible if we already have one of the older donor tiers to upgrade it to a higher old donor tier? (Ex. if im tier 2 can i go to tier 3,4, etc) I think it would be nice if people who have older tiers can upgrade that instead of starting fresh with patron.

    Have a look here:

    Let's talk server monetisation!

    >
    You are allowed to accept donations

    You are allowed to accept donations from players. You can thank them publicly or in-game, but can’t give preferential treatment for donating. You are not allowed to restrict gameplay features in an attempt to make money.
    >


    As far as i know, the old ranks have commands unlocked, which means that no, they are not allowed to do this.

    Someone from the staff probably knows more about this than me.

    As someone who is a T4 donor and would love to upgrade to T5, like Willshaper said, this is something we are not allowed to do anymore in accordance with the EULA.

    We don't want to do anything that could break the eula. Even allowing upgrades like this would break it. I would very much not want to go through this process again

    They didn't notice it until recently, plus they would get into more trouble if they did it again.

    This link will provide more information. We have to comply with the terms they have set forth. Otherwise, as Bluu said, we can get in a lot of serious trouble, some of it on the legal side of things.

    This was decided as a way to personally say thank you to those who do purchase it. Your telling me, I have t4 and the only things I can use out of it are /fly and my homes.

    I believe we still can, we just can no longer give you more than what you have already paid for.

    Unfortunately they did care about "1 small server", cause the first time we were lucky and were approached informally and they asked us to change our donations perks, and we had to completely revamp it, as you can tell.
    But if we were to break the EULA again, they would take this on a legal level, involving lawyers and all that kind of stuff.
