personally i think maybe u should cut the clan down to those who actually properly lay as darkmonkey said many dont contribute at all. Crying or Very sad

Everyone in the clan has played at one point or another. The clan was created to be a 'mess-about' clan, that's why anyone is allowed in - there are no tryouts or anything. If you think they don't play a lot, well, there isn't any harm in their names being on a list is there? Razz

. And we aren't making this a pay clan Wink

. However, people who did help pay for the clan server will get some advantages in it.

i suppose

but i still think its slightly unfair

There might be a slight problem - i looked at one host and you need to buy the server for atleast 3 months (and £20 per month). Would everyone be able to pay for 3 months.

A lot of advantages. I'm not sure if the three month thing happens with all hosts, or if it's that we pay all the money at the beginning or £20 every month. I'll find out.

apparently a 20 person server is the same as a 16 person server in price (£25)

You get a discount, the bigger the discount for the longer the contract. I doubt a 20 person server is the same price as a 16 person one, unless someone is trying to compete with someone else in prices.

That would be cool, but one-off fees aren't too good in the long run. What will happen is that we will be able to afford a server for the first month, but after that, be completely screwed. I also think it would be wise to buy a server near the beginning of the month, so that anyone who gets an allowance has some money left. Thinking about it, now would be a good time Wink

Well, if you really wanted i could cut it down into 5 payments of £1... but that wouldn't help very much. Why not start a bank account for the clan, and every time anyone has a little money they give it to james, who puts it in the bank accout, and we try and keep that topped up?
