Not likely to. It would be giving a better start to people who donated, and the last thing we want is more elitism.
I know people who donated for 1mil or more. It'd be incredibly unfair to start off with 1 mil. On the other hand, If I had donated for 1 mil, i'd feel angry and cheated like hell.

Please, take the time to read this:
     OCRP IS all about making money and buying fancy cars to drive around and look cool. But that doesn't mean it has to. If there were other ways of earning money other than just GROWING stuff, like being a businessman, investing money in stocks, playing in a casino, being cop(who are incredibly underpaid), being a medic, being mayor, w/e you want to be. NO. You can only earn good amounts of money GROWING.
     And new ways to SPEND your money. I understand there must be new expensive things, such as cars and shit. But what people seem to enjoy as well is STATUS. So a few additions to the player's model, like  sunglasses, a hat, a tie, a pair of shoes, things the other players can see and talk about. "Wow, nice hat, how much was it?" Same way people talk about fancy cars. And that gives them purpose.

    The reason why people don't RP that much is mostly because growing weed and shit is not something quite RP-able. Or lets say, it doesn't promote it. /me waters the weed plant as he amazes himself with the speed it grows. "Damn, I'll be able to buy a car soon.", he says. Now some things that do promote RP are jobs, games, events, and those "accessories" I mentioned. /me touches his fancy hat as he counts the money he's going to invest. Looks again to the monitor, realising his stocks are dropping really fast. "Damn!", he yells, and gets up in a hurry, to talk with the sales girl. His hat falls off his head. "I wanna sell my stocks, right now!".

   I know he'd probably sell his stocks before typing it all, xD. But hey, I think you got the main idea. Lots of new stuff, lots of new RP-able ways to earn and spend money. That's what I hope to see, and that's what would overcome my anger of getting reset.

Sorry for the long post.

I think he means the gold member/vip donation, if I'm not mistaken. If the server resets, I'm pretty sure you would keep your gold/vip member

I heard it could get reset.. not sure if true.. but some peoples responses to it were not good.
hello my name is Ryan Fournier. I am known on the internet as autism, and I like to pretend I am a little boy named Jamie Laou, a Justin Bieber look alike. I am not 18, so don't listen to me when I say I am. I'm roughly 13 years old.

Regarding a reset. Only listen to myself an Rolf. Thank you.
Please do not add me on Steam because you have in-game problems. Make a thread in the correct board on the forum and i will respond to that whenever i have time.

OCRP isn't about growing weed and whoring money and buying cars. If any of you guys where around in Orange Cosmos you'd know that was like a "side objective" - everyone still had time to passive RP, set up shops, run mayor events, run events with their org and just have fun. I haven't been on OCRP in ages but I doubt someone's set up a party at the pool "just for fun" recently....

It's because people (well most likely) got bored of doing PassiveRP. There isn't a "long lasting goal" in it. For example: You can grow weed and buy a car, that you will be able to spawn everyday, drive it around, show it off, ect. PassiveRP you have to (depending on what you do, but lets say you're doing a party or something like that) set up props for the party, have some fun, then it's over. If there was a long lasting benefit to PassiveRP, then I think more people would do it. You also have to keep in mind that this is OCRP, and most of the player base are young people (aka kids).

I would say if a wipe is to happen, that whatever cash we donated for is returned to us, not the cash we earned by growing etc. People have donated for a lot of OCRP cash and it will cause a lot of rage and mad if you decide not to return that cash to them on the next gamemode.

If there was to be a reset then the best possible reason to do so is probably to fix the economy. Returning the cash again would be pointless and remember, A donation is a charitable purpose where you don't necessarily require a gift for doing so.

When you donate, you're not donating for money. You're donating to keep our servers running and we're giving you a gift as a thanks for that.

That's just a front to avoid some laws and shit. If you sell in-game money, if you reset, people can go to Justice. If you donate and get in-game money as reward, you can't go to Justice in case of a reset.

Everyone knows we are purchasing in-game money/gold/vip, not just "donating for the server". Though there are a few people that actually donate.

Yeah, it's a motive to get people to donate as no one really would if you didn't gain anything out of it.

Do you really think most of the people here would go out of their way to sue a gaming community that isn't even a registered entity? Also, if we wanted to get around laws, we could say you donated for OCRP cash, not OCRP2.

Please think things through before posting them.

You may notice I wasn't talking about the OCRP situation in particular when I talked about the front thing. Anyway, lets stop posting about this, shall we?
I wanna hear newz...
