They play and it's typically under their main names, but it's not 24/7 like most of us. Flameless likes this Link to comment

I haven't been playing recently due to my CPU dying. I can't speak for the other servers, but sever one has been having memory leaks that pop up randomly for everyone. Not 100% sure as to the cause, since it's mostly speculation and theories. Edited October 26, 2016 by KrazyKnight Link to comment

Asylum is something Paratus does in his free time. Therefore Asylum is not associated with the business. If you're not capable of understanding something that simple, you're going to have a pretty difficult time going through life. I own a business myself - not having too much of a difficult time in life. I can GUARANTEE you that Asylum is part of the business. Because he accepts payments through a business Paypal account associated with the business name. He would be FOOLISH to not claim this as income for his corporation. Taxes are much higher if he claims as self employment income on his own income return. Regardless, I REALLY DON'T CARE. I'm not sure why it continues to be brought up. It's pretty much irrelevant. I was just saying we'd like an update if we could get one. Edited October 27, 2016 by ₴avagє bigjohn561 likes this Link to comment

Regardless, all I'm saying is it would be nice to hear from the developers from time to time when there are issues as severe as there have been the last few days. Does that make me a bad person? For caring about what's going on with the servers? Many people have a ton of time and money invested in their hobby and care about what's going on. While they may not OWE us anything, it would be good to hear what's going on. 2 hours ago, ₴avagє said: I own a business myself - not having too much of a difficult time in life.

How will I handle such a horrid attack on the internet? 17 minutes ago, william said: they are DONATIONS to keep the server running so he doesn't have to pay for it out of his own pocket. Am i right? @Gnashes DONATIONS are TAXABLE as INCOME. Anything over $20,000 a year automatically generates a 1099 at Paypal (though you are technically responsible for every dollar you receive if you receive less than that in a year). Example: if you receive $5000 on Paypal, they do not generate a tax form or report to the IRS, but if you are found not reporting to the IRS you will be committing tax fraud. And yes, if he does report his income, he can then write off the cost of the servers so that he does not pay taxes on that income.Example: He receives 35,000 in donations a year. Servers cost $10,000 a year to run. His taxable income is now $25,000 a year for his business (this business line). Because he is a corporation he receives better tax rates than someone who is a sole proprietor (basically self employment tax rate). Yes I am aware he is in Canada but I assume the benefits are similar in paying as a corporation vs sole proprietor.

You can accept donations whether you are on that list or not, it doesn't effect donations what so ever. Once you start giving items alongside Donations it no longer classifies as a donation but rather a sale of items (monetising your server), and thats when the approved list comes into place. You need to be on the list to give 'perks' and 'items' to users that are paying money. Google™, Frizzy and Professor Pericles like this Link to comment
