Not pay to win. Just the server rent.
Nothing on this server is pay to win. No amount of money buys stats, resources, tames, gear, structures, or any edge in a fight, a raid or a race to progression. A player who never gives a cent plays exactly the same game as everyone else, with the same chances.
Giving is entirely optional and never expected. Nobody is asked, nobody is ranked by what they gave, and nothing in the game is closed to those who give nothing.
Donations pay the bill, and nothing else: the monthly rent of the three servers, and what it costs to keep them online, updated and backed up. When the month is covered, the servers stay up. That is the whole point.
What a donor gets back stays cosmetic or symbolic: a coloured tag on the Discord, a thank you, and the monthly rate boost that applies to everyone once the goal is reached - never to the donor alone.
To give, or simply to ask where the money goes, open a ticket on the Discord. A donation is final and is never refunded, whatever happens next - the terms say it in full.
