If it got off the ground i might give it a go. Do not make it pay To win.
 
I dont consider p2p enchants as pay to win really .. they will be in as event rewards to so non donors can get it , but if the server grows i will need a good host and i need donations for that , i hope u understand

Find another way or you defeat the purpose of it being a F2P server.

Cross-posting isn't allowed on these forums, just so you know.
 
I'd definently join =P.
 
You guys don't seem to understand. You cannot get anything off the ground without money. And paying out of your own pocket would be way too expensive. OP, it's a good idea, but one of the reasons people pay F2P is because we don't have to pay for anything. So of course, you wouldn't find one person here to give you any money. And me? Well I'm jobless atm haha, otherwise I'd help you out. I'll kinda sorta miss F2P Cata, but unfortunately, going back is as easy as having every F2P move over to a 4.3.4 server. It's a nice idea though, and I hope you CAN find another way to make it work from less stingy and/or broke people :p

At least half of those ideas are terrible.

P2P enchants are not part of the F2P twink bracket hence, "P2P" which makes your F2P server not a F2P server.

No cosmetic items? They don't impact gameplay at all. They're fun to use, add an additional time sink to farm for and in general are a nice feature to have.

Between your terrible ideas and lack of funding and manpower you sound just like every other owner in the past 2 years that have made their fail twink servers.

This is strictly my opinion albeit brutally honest.

I'd recommend keeping mounts at 60%, it was fine in cata and promoted good positioning.

Instead of offering p2p chants as a reward for donating, make name/race/faction changing be a reward for this.

Costume items can be fun. As long as they are not beneficial to a player's stats, it can produce something really cool. :)

Rewards for rated arenas

Some nerfs...Ex: Explosive Shot damage reduction, Crippling Poison brought to 50% movement speed reduction

​keep it f2p

Someone is willing to produce something that you probably wouldn't think of doing on your own. The initial ideas aren't the best, so help think of better ones instead of degrading the OP.
 
Take away p2p chants. if you want to reward people for donating give them a tabard or title instead. If people enjoy the server there will most likely be people donating either way to keep it going / help it grow. Guilds and skirmishes would be cool too. You could add some vanity stuff aswell, like mogable High lvl gear, tabards, and mounts that you could all buy for honor.
