If ever the server need money, a good way to get some without affecting this one at all, is to open another server with a shop and openly labeled as "fun" server.

That's crazy how much money a fun sever can make, even with "only" 100-200 players on it.

End o' story.

That sort of statement is just invalid if you don't propose how we can finance the server. Just like reality does, your escape from reality runs on money aswell.

Monetise nothing, add a donation button for those who want to.

If down the line things need to be monetised for the server to survive, give the original donors a forum flair or something and then add smaller things for money.

Nothing should be monetized, people who donate to the server should donate because they support the server and what it stands for, not for perks. I actually believe this is possible to pull off.

Anyway, they will need money soon or later.

I think that it they don't receive the needed amount, they should put TCG items in a Marketstore.

PD: When TCG items came for first time? I think they didn't come until TBC by the way

TCG = Trading Card Game.

Those are the items that you get buying Wow game cards in real life. Some of these cards have a code that you can use to get a Vanity item. (For example the famous Spectral Tiger)

Make a donation button, and those that want to support the server will just donate. Simple as that.

I'd gladly donate 5 euros every month...so donation button idea is the best. I'm not for buying mounts or vanity items even though I understand the concept behind it. But in my opinion players will donate if the server really proves as I hope it would. Gogo Nostalrius!
