It not really dumb for donors to pay to get their ranks, if they truly wanted to help staff then they should apply, the requirement for each server of dinks shows the requirements but also the devotion players have for the game mode they love to play on.

By having a "new" role that test all regulars to see if they have the capabilities to become staff would have many more problem popping up as well as abuse thread after abuse thread of the new role being over ruled and new players seeing that rank as privilege people who are associated to all staff members of the community.

Donors are just ranks with perks, sure they have the mute, gag and kick commands but those are just the basics since other commands that staff have are mostly for serious business and not a tool to fool around.

Before I became staff, I was just a regular rank that applied since I thought I could contribute to the community more than just be a regular player and help staff at time by messaging them about players that like to bend and break server rules and for recording of those actions.

The time itself is not contribute by the time you play in a single day but a record of all the days you played on the server since you joined and continuously come back to. Sure people have real life stuff to do that more important, however in their free time they come to dinks to have fun and enjoy the game mode.
