Heya!
Today I’ve been thinking quite a bit about perks that can be added to ranked players. One those that came to mind would be a coin boost for ranked players.

Why?
It’d be a useful perk for ranked players, possibly give new player a little motivation to donate to the network. Of course as new games are implemented, this would be as well.

What are coins boosts?
Coins boosts is when ranked players receive a higher coin count than default players. The higher the rank, the more your coins (x) would be multiplied.

Example:
Say a regular game of murder gave you about 300 coins
VIP’s would receive a x1.5 coin boost every game; this meaning they’d receive 450 coins.
VIP+s would receive a x2.0 coin boost every game; this scenario would give them 600 coins
Elite’s would receive x2.5; 750 coins for this scenario.
Finally Elite+, would receive a x3.0; 900 coins for this scenario.

Please keep in mind these are just examples.

Feel free to leave feedback/your thoughts!

Thank you for reading!​
 
I'm not sure about this, it seems like a good idea; but what would they spend it on besides Murder? Most players spend time in Creative or Murder.

I’m sorry what? This would apply to all games beides creative because there are no coins in the creative network.

Ah, sorry. I forgot that you can spend coins in any game (excluding Creative) without having to be in a current game. Whoops!
 
I do quite like this idea, it would add a new perk to donors and would hopefully encourage players to play different games rather than just creative.
I don’t really have much to say about this, but I do like the idea of this.
 
Thanks for the suggestion! A lot of large networks used to do this, and eventually, Mojang put out their new EULA, saying that purchasable ranks could no longer give players a competitive advantage (i.e. to prevent the game from becoming pay-to-win).

However, some servers have gotten around this by giving everyone the ability to level up on the network and progress toward obtaining a currency boost. Other servers give everyone in a specific lobby extra currency based on the number of ranked players present.

I know for sure that part of the EULA problem was that some servers gave ranked players unique kits in competitive PvP minigames that were unobtainable to those who didn't donate.

Anyway, I don't know whether this would violate EULA. I think it would, because we'd be allowing donors to progress faster (buying upgrades in games that give them an advantage), but nothing we'd give them would be unobtainable (except for cosmetics, and Mojang made it clear that those are OK for donor-only rewards because they don't affect gameplay).

^ thanks I though this would possibly violate the Eula but wasn't sure.

Anyways there really isn't much need to have this as many players have already gotten all the upgrades. I started my alt a couple days ago Interestingly enough I got to a good rank easily as well upgrading upgrades was too easy until you get higher. Besides murder there really isn't many other games besides downgrade that needs massive amount of coin.

As well It took about 6 mounths for someone to completely get everything. There was a coin booster given in murder yet was taken away for what ever reason. Anyways I rather not have everyone be able to have 50 reload speed as with 1 its hard but 10 is even harder.

Still salty about the removal of the coin booster. I upgraded that thing like crazy.
