1. Don't allow people to donate for staff

Explanation: All this will do is make people come to the server and think it's ****ty and that you're just doing it for the money (which it's okay if you are) but you want the regular players to donate but they might quit due to bad staff if you let people donate for staff. So overall if you want people to donate for donator and you have to make it appealing to them, which I think you did pretty well last time with the donar island and making it so only donars can dice. You don't want a lot of bad staff members nor a lot of staff members.

2. Make an incentive for players that contribute to the community

Explanation: Whether it's just voting or making guides for the server make sure you make that person feel like they are doing well. Make a rank for the forums like "respected" and "Guide Maker" or something. This will not only make people act less toxic in a community it will discourage trolls from joining the community. Also I can't remember but add a vote shop if there isn't one, and make it worthwhile to vote, but not to the point where the vote system is like soulsplit's.

3. Make money making even to both skillers and pvmers.

Explanation: A way to make it even for skillers and pvmers is to make skillers go to a npc to get a task that requires them to cut yews or magics and mine runite or make a certain amount of each rune (make sure they can't just buy the runes and turn those in). Whenever they complete the task they can turn in the ore, logs, et c. for a random item (make it like a clue scroll) and make it so that they can choose if they want an easy, medium, hard, or elite task. Make it so to get an elite task they need to have all 99's except for: PK skill, dungeonerring, slayer, Hp, str, def, att, and prayer [Edit: and summoning]. Also don't let your admins/co-owners/owners trade items to their other acc's. That's abuse of power and adds unearned gp into the economy even if you don't sell them to other players or use them in pvp.

4. Create a new forums layout

Explanation: I like this forum but make it so it fits our banner. Blue and red don't fit and also add more forum sections, like off topic, and a runescape section. Also make the forums background black so the sections  pop out more and are more appealing. Red and black are pretty appealing same with blue and black so we could change that.

5. Don't let people donate to become rich

Explanation: You cannot let people donate for every item in-game. If you do this then it will also screw our economy. If you make it so only people that donate get rares then the economy will be run by donars and regular players won't be able to get ahead by grinding for their money. This makes people feel like the only way to be good is to donate which has happened in a couple servers before and it turns them off from the server so they will quit. Donars should get an incentive for donating but not such a huge advantage that regular players are just getting the crumbs of the wealth in the economy.

What you should be able to donate for:
Bandos armor
Staff of light
Amulet of fury
Royal Attire
Gilded armor
Dice
1 Custom Partyhat
Custom Items (donar cape, katana, et c.)
et c.

DO NOT ADD:
Regular Partyhats +
Scythes or holiday items (make them spawn randomly around rs or have hns events. Note: only during their specific holidays)
Godswords
Nex Armor
Rare pvm armor or items
Dungeonerring items
et c.

6. Make minigames worth doing

Explanation: Whenever players do minigames together they usually make friends and it brings people together. More people are likely to quit a server they have no friends on than a server they have friends on. Also it would be a really fun way to make money and it would be kinda unique as most servers don't make minigames that important and they become dead content.
