We have discounted all the EULA Violating items from the donator shop by 50%.
I'd like to remind you that starting August 1st these items will be removed from the server.
To make it easier to you to realize which items will be released, I have moved them all in the "Will be removed in august 1st" category.

No the rank packs are only changing. You will still be able to get donator ranks but packages contain different things.

Quote from Buycraft:
You can purchase rank packs here.
The rank packs will have Cosmetic perks.
Any rank you buy from this category will be yours for an undetermined period of time (as long as you play on our Server)

No. If you check, there are new donor ranks, not to mention, old ones which players donated for will remain.

^ Ranks were already re-added they just contain different perks. Due to the new EULA, we are not allowed to have any perks but cosmetic perks for the rank packs.

No, we already added the new ranks which look the same but have different perks. Instead of items / empbucks , the new perks are decorative (particle effects, hats, etc)

That's your opinion and you are entitled to it.
But I did post a feedback thread before making these ranks and everyone appreciated them.

I think the EULA will be changed anyway, you can never stop the power of the people

It will not, the EULA has never changed, it has only been taken loosely in the past. Though people may have power...

1. They are not as strong as their entertainment provider - Mojang
2. A portion of them already started playing Realms

Mojang owns the game, they are going for the money, they barely care about their fans. Even if we were to go against it, at the end of the day, they control the game.

This is reality, and in reality, most people are selfish, power-hungry, craving for money. They do not even care if you hold some protest... Mojang was DDoSed because of this EULA, nothing happened, the EULA was not changed, but the people wasted a ton of their efforts. Notch made a clear point, we cannot charge for their game. Though this may sound harsh, he's got the right to say so. Reality is harsh, and truth hurts.

Though, alike all the players, I wish for SFT to be able to remain, but reality is reality, and no one can change it. If one day, Towelie does not have the power to continue supporting this community, there's nothing to be done, we cannot beg Mojang or anything. But that day won't come soon, because I believe in SFT, and I believe in Towelie. You may say that Mojang is being very mean, but all companies crave for money, do you really think your iPhone, Louis Vuitton, or Gucci are worth all that money? The truth is, everyone looks to gain more money, because with money, comes power, and with power, comes respect.

Bright, it is not quite like that. If you buy Autocad you can charge for the result of using it.
In my opinion this is a service providing server and the end users all paid already for the software.
Server is not just hosting a map.

I never said a server cannot charge players for going on... Mojang is doing this to promote Realms and Realms bring them money. I also never said a server was just a map.

All I said was Mojang is doing this out of money... And that the EULA won't change.

Sorry for being rude, but please read what I said.

You didn't get me mate.
Read it again.
What I was saying is that technically SFT is not charging for the game (we have to treat it like a software because that's what it is), SFT is generating a service with a software and is charging for various options.
To use the same example would be like Autocad not letting their customers to charge for the straight lines made in their projects because the straight line was already implemented by Autocad developers.

So basically SFT is not charging for their game (Mojang's Notch, whatever) but for some optional services.

Legally speaking it should work their way only if SFT would use the software as a franchise.
