    Hey guys, I have a question

    Just an idea: is it possible for you to create slots on the servers for donors?For example, out of 20 slots for players on a PR server have 5-6 for donors? For example, the USA PR vs server is full so now whoever wants to play has to wait for a slot to open...

    just my 2 cents, :)

    Weve had this discussion before.

    Here marvel on the original discussion:

    You can do it but a donor will only join as spec then and still have to wait for someone to leave. Even that is fixable, you could create slot 19 and 20 reserved and have only 18 slots for non-donors but that is just too annoying because if you join slot 19 and 20 as non-donor you get kicked all the time and if no donors are around these slots will be left empty (wasted).

    So just use openserverbrowser on autoretry, that works fine for me

    To tell you the truth, I've always hated the idea of having reserved slots for Donors or MG Members.
    Some servers, such as SimianCage, thought it a 'great idea' to do just that.
    So, when a donor or member would join a full server, a non-member/non-donor would get kicked.

    The best thing you could do is join another MG server, and use Auto-retry on the
    PR server you're looking to join. Once a slot opens up, then you'll get connected to that server.
