Sadly, this "contract" of which you speak does not exist and therefore your argument is invalid. This has been going back and forth for the several months I have been here and undoubtedly long before that. Plain and simple, this is a donation. Paypal lists it as a donation. There is a defined, legal term for donation. The staff does not profit from these donations. Many, MANY services have improved in the last few months as a result of these donations and the game would suffer if this system was not in place.
PWO reserves the right to stop gifting tokens any time they please and they are not legally obligated to return donation funds. Do you know why? They are DONATIONS. Your misunderstanding of this system and how it works does not mean you are right.
You can call a rose a weed, that does not make it true.

yes the paypal list this as donation, but the contract still exist, i've already explained
and don't tell me they don't get profit from donations, because they do,
and it's different story if they decide to use their profit to make games better,
but you can't say that they don't make profit out of it.
let's just put it this way, if you bring this case to court, the judge will rule the PWO give promised token to the player, or the money back
that simple, because the agreement both party agree upon, and the law will not allow any unfair transactions
in this case, PWO got the money, but did not give tokens like what they agreed upon.
therefore it's unfair for the person who donate.
you can not simply created a payment called donation and just do anything with it,
people who sell drugs and other illegal items can call it donation from others
but they will still get charged by selling illegal items,
and another example, if this is truly a donation, why are people can still getting their money back?
and once again i'm not suggesting PWO is wrong, or this impatience player is right
i'm just point out a fact from the law book,
and about that rose and weed,
what would you call something if it looks like a rose,
it smell like a rose, and function like a rose but has a name tag weed?

They don't receive any sort of profit. all money gained from DONATIONS gets spent on server upkeep and miscellaneous things to the game.
No staff profit from it at all.
>"and another example, if this is truly a donation, why are people can still getting their money back?"
Because they contact paypal to get them back.
