Donating for =.KoG.= servers bills

Current amount donated for 2024: 327.26 out of 580 euros

Last update: 12th of October 2023.

Why donating?

As you all know, servers are not free. So far since =.KoG.= creation, I've been handling the bills of all servers. Since 2021, we are running all our servers on a single dedicated server. This allows us to not pay an insane amount as if we were using Gameservers.com That being said, VAT included, servers costs are at 555 euros/year from now on.

If you enjoy playing on =.KoG.= servers, and want to give us a hand with the bills, you are more than welcome to do so! Please note that helping with the bills won't give you any special treatment if you break our rules.

This is where you'll be able to donate: https://donating.kog-clan.com

We are now on PATREON[www.patreon.com]

After donating, you can post your transaction ID bellow, or DISCORD[discord.kog-clan.com] via PM.
If some people don't want to let others know they have donated, they should still at least send me a private message or an email at: kosmos@kog-clan.com
so that i can report the donations here too in the target.

Regarding some players who approched me saying "dude why are you asking for donations? If you can't pay for the bills, don't start hosting servers in the first place!"
My answer to this? I DO NOT beg for donations, I started this community so that i can play with fellow gamers who share a similar way of thinking regardless of origin, sex, religion, politic and so on.
I struggled hard to find a good compromise regarding cost/efficiency so that despite not being rich, it won't impact my daily life, and i think that in terms of cost compared to games you pay for some even a hundred for only few hours of actual playtime, it's still worth it! This also means that yes I will obviously be gratefull whenever someone help me with the bills (even few bucks, it's always welcome, imagine 1euros / month even half of the members of this group page would mean for our hosting capacity a huge improvement and new heavy games to host too), but it's NOT mandatory, and exept if something happens to me, the servers for our community will keep on running regardless of donations.
