Naw, 'cause it's still effectively paying for VIP so.
i like the ranks but dont like the rep.
Well if it does you can scrap that idea and still do ranks and get rep?
The whole point of 'donating' is you get nothing 'subscription-wise' from it, just a username that tells people you have, so the ranking idea would make it akin to a subscription by giving features for payment.
As for rep... It would be a pain for Administrators to do it - and would require a sub-forum for donators only to claim their rep, which, in turn, would be a 'subscription-esque' feature...
They removed buying rep for a reason...
If we do that then it's technically still buying premium services, it sucks.
Yeah, climbing up the ranks and getting something like rep in exchange for money would be considered charging for a premium service like a lot of others have said. Who needs rep anyway! You should be earning it rather than paying for it :P Plus you don't necessarily need lots of green blocks to have a good reputation around here!
I wouldn't be surprised that if we did offer rep as a token of our appreciation, people who previously wouldn't have donated, would just for the rep. There are limits on what we could do to recognise people who have donated or how donators can be distinguished, and coloured names is pretty much the only acceptable thing. You cant distinguish someone as a donator from their rep, so it would be classed as an extra feature in exchange for money.
Well you dont need to give everyone rep, Only very very good donators like ones that dont get into trouble, etc
