    So if you weren't already thinking this staff, I recommend a St.Patricks day sale, something like 50% off, this would be great as I have seen that there were no donations this month and that the server costs 300 a month :O . So anyway this would be great for people to buy something and if this is a thing, I promise I will buy 2 people contributoror get myself a pet pack.

    Ugggh, I really hope there isn't a new rank. This is just because I want the top rank, and I'm not aloud to buy another ranks for any server :( >;3

    The new rank that they are talking about is just mainly extras; like all the pet packs and trails. There won't be that much of a difference between MVP and whatever they decide to call this possible rank. All in all, there are many people who would end up getting this rank, and that would give lots of money to the server. It boils down to one question; would you rather be the highest rank and the server possibly run out of funding, or have an additional rank added and the server to get more money?

    One of the main reasons that Matty suggested the new rank is because of last months donations. It was around 10% out of 100.
    That is very heart breaking and thats why we wanted to introduce a new rank, so we can have more options and rank opportunities for people who are willing to donate.

    Also, top rank is really something you shouldn't worry about being, We are just happy that you contributed to the server and put your money into improving it :)

    probably the biggest problem about donations right now is...
    everyone who could donate has already donated.
    Which is why we need new players = we need to advertise.
    While a Legend rank may solve this problem, it is only a temporary solution.

    I'm sure Zach is working on expanding the playerbase, (i.e, the new landing page, and GoogleAdwords)

    Anyway, some people don't celebrate St. Patrick's Day, it might be odd. On the other hand, some people don't celebrate Christmas yet we got a sale.

    I am now questioning how 2.67 years ago, there were always at least 30 players on, yet now there are whole hours where not one even joins.

    I know but where did BCSN really advertise other than one time on YouTube and on Planet Minecraft?

    We just were popular lol. Advertising can be really a waste of money and we have to do it correctly when we do advertise on websites that may cost a lot.

    We are already trying to bring as many players in as possible, but the problem is less and less people vote for us. We WERE in the top 500 on http://minecraftservers.org/ however our rank has been steadily decreasing, same with the other websites.
