So here is my opinion....

1. You already get 60 gold a day for free, I believe it's 20 x3 every 24 hours.
2. I never had an issue with ads, if you mean the website, I have not had an issue. If you mean the vote rewards website, that is the way it works. You cannot change that. That is out of our power anyways.
3. Although I get what you mean about the "VIP" section of the forum, it's necessarily needed. I think the system that is in place works great the way it is.
4. As far as In-game or forum name color changes, I wouldn't see why that would be an issue. My opinion, I think it's a cool feature to have as far as "Donor" but nothing more. It would just be a title, not incentives. *Title maybe but not color change*
5. There should be no reason why anyone would be able to see "content" before others. When the owners release the patch, everyone sees it together.
6. There is no problem with donating to the server. The better and more people willing to donate, the better the server.
-Hope everything helps as far as opinion, if there is anything else on your mind, please feel free to express and ask. No hard feelings, just telling you what I think.
