For say $80+ donation you can be able to race change within your own faction (ex. Horde can't change to a alliance race, ally can't go horde. Orc --> Undead, Human--> Night elf). Just a idea.

Even if you're new here you can still use the search forum function.

Yeah I saw that. This is just keeping it on the same faction so people aren't jumping ship on alliance or horde. I just wanted to see if this could have a place in the future.

Any sort of money-gaining from a server drives blizz to shut a server down, and they have had great success doing so. In court, they can reference these transactions as lost profits and not only shut down the server but ruin the financial lives of the owners or those affiliated.

In the end, it would be a neat convenience but potentially catastrophic consequences.

Eh, legalities aren't really the problem. Server is located in France so there would be a bunch of stuff they would have to do. Even still, better safe than sorry. You never know how desperate Blizzard is after how badly WoW has been crashing.

I'd like to point out that for Blizzard to shut down a server they'd had to go through an aweful lot of trouble since the server is located in France. It's just messy to go through different countries.

And even if the server would shut down, they would simply relocate the server to a different country with all data. Then it would take years for Blizzard to shut that one down. That's the way it works.

Nope. This might make sense if this were a Wrath server or beyond.

Would be nice, but...probably won't happen. If I recall all the donations they've done has been straight up donations with maybe "thank you" post on the forums.

Though.

If the Nost team would like options...there's always the instant 60, but done 'my' way. Which is you must have a lvl 60 (either faction), you do not get gear, gold, bags...literally the only change to your character is the number next to your name and the number of talent points you have.

--It's really just so people don't have to grind out levels on alts playing the same content and can just jump right into the action. Guild need a Warrior Tank to OT? Level Boost and carry him through BRD, Scholo, Strat, DM.

*NOTE: I am currently lvl 35, and have no lvl 60 on this server. So I would not be eligible for it.
