I am looking for a stand alone Item mall for use on my WoW server. I need it to put the items eaither directly into thier inventory or into the bank. I would like it to be set up on a donation point system like they donate $2 and get 10 points to spend. That you in advance for the help :)
What a great way to make money off other peoples work! Good job there!Quote:

i think if you wanted to create this yourself you would have to:
1. set up a paypal account that they can send the money to
2. create custom items for them to buy
3. create custom tokens that they will get when they donate money
4. edit the custom items and set it so you need the tokens to buy it.
i would be able to help you with this with the editing the items ect.

If you're using ascent, taking donations while using ascent server is NOT ALLOWED. wowscape got owned this way.
What happend to WOWScape? Its still up but just keeps D/C every like 10 mins lol.
Speaking of Ascent and donations. Is there anywhere that one could make donations to the Ascent team? I greatly support their work, and would love to give back to them.
On their site: ascentemu.com
I accept donations but before they hit complete I strongly urge them to consider also donating to the ascent team.
i might occasionally get donations but what im thinking of doing is when i raised enough to get a dedicated server or something everything that i get after that is donated to the ascent team...would that be ok?
Ask them, not me, all I know is that they don't like people making money off their work.
Makes perfect sense to meQuote:

And as for the custom items they are in the works as well as well as a donators only area where they can relax, and use NPCs that no one else can, nothing too good just like ore vendors, possibley some text based mini games, things like that. And as started above I am not trying to make a profit, so there for I will not make any money off other peoples work. Altho any server out there that recives donations are in a sence making money off other peoples work, well unless they happen to be the sole creator of world of warcraft, or happen to have fully made their sever emulator from sctartch, witch I know no one in this world is, seeing as how both the above ways required teams of programers to make :)
And no I am not running Acent. The server is a mangos base with, multiple databases linked together. I have found that some datbases have probles that others dont, so spent a whil going though and finding what bugs each had then loking at the others to see if they had fixed it, then splicing them together.
They stole WoW's work, and they request donations, i think thats democracy.Quote:
