Title: Trukz Donations
admin - January 12, 2008 01:10 AM (GMT)
Donations are used to help support the site including hosting fees, software licensing, maintenance, administration and employee fees, bandwidth fees, and upgrades for the game as well as other expenses as determined by administration. You are not entitled to a record of how your donation is spent. Only one donation bonus per calendar month is allowed. (If you donate on the last day of the month you can donate again on the first day of the next month and receive the bonus again.)
To donate for your driver or for another driver in the game click on the

icon next to the drivers name in the driver display page and then follow the instructions from there. Once a donation is received and cleared the bonus will be provided towards the recipient driver within 24 hours.
Once the bonus is processed the donation amount and date will appear on your driver display page for your records. For privacy reasons this information is only available to the driver who actually received the donation. Because of this privacy setting, if you want to donate for another driver in the game make sure to contact them beforehand to ensure that they have not already donated for the current calendar month. Donations are completely voluntary and any in game benefits are awarded purely at our discretion. The current rewards for donating are as follows:
$20.00 Donation - $5,000 Driver Cash
$15.00 Donation - $3,500 Driver Cash
$10.00 Donation - $2,250 Driver Cash
$5.00 Donation - $1,000 Driver Cash
Donating any of the above amounts to Trukz also removes the ads that display throughout the game for the rest of the calendar month in which the donation was received.

I just want to say that i like the donation idea. i am more than willing to donate money to keep this site up (which is an awsome game by the way admin) even if you don't offer in game money ( which you are) i would still donate. just want to say great job admin and i hope this site sticks around for ahile.

Excellent. I plan to make a donation, and would be happy just to support the game but it is nice to get a bonus.

I just made a donation but I don't know if I listed any more info such as my driver name... anything we can do about it?
Edit: everything is ok

Since you haven't set a cap on your own monthly donations received from players, I would suggest that you post up the monthly total donations received. Under the auction idea, players would have seen the monthly results at the end of the auction. In your current donation plan, we don't know if you're breaking even, or making a killing.

what difference does it make the grocery store does not post how much it makes off bread and milk so why should this be any different
donate if u want to and dont donate if u dont want to simple as that it is really none of our business how much they make or if it is a profit
kudos to them if they do make a profit

If you'd read my other posts, you'd know that I was enthusiastically supportive of Admin getting rich. What I meant was that the stated purpose of "donations" was to support the costs of running the game. An auction such as I had suggested, would be readily transparent. The way the sale of play money is now set up there is no monthly quota to fulfill, no goal to reach or attain in helping out. Either way it is voluntary participation. But, the method selected is less transparent in its results.
If Admin sells play money for real money, more power to him. It's a good game, and the real money should be an incentive to keep improving it.

To: RADanny From: admin 1/12/2008 11:59:00 AM Subject: Gift For $20.00 Trukz Donation
Your driver RADanny has been credited with $5,000 extra cash for providing at least a $20.00 donation to Trukz. Tell your friends about this offer and thanks for your Trukz donation.
I spend more on Wii and Xbox games that collect dust.
And on pretty girls ;)

I made a donation, but there was no commet tab available to put my name. Just consider it money well spent.
mr. magoo - January 13, 2008 05:28 AM (GMT)
If you clicked the dollar sign on your driver page, it will automatically go to you.
zax_was_here - January 13, 2008 08:50 PM (GMT)
any way this can be set up to work like CN donation deals, where i pay "nationnamegoeshere" 3mil/50 tech and the nation donates to my driver?
LogisticsKing - January 24, 2008 07:04 PM (GMT)
I made a donation, through PayPal, it had my username and everything. It was debited from my bank account etc. I got the e-mail from PayPal saying it went through, yet it still shows "No donations on record" in my driver profile. Perhaps it just takes time for admin to register all of the donations and pay the game money out?
I'm not trying to be impatient, it's just that I need a new truck badly and could use that game money
:D

its probably like the link bonus it will show up when they give you the bonus and it's not going to be immediately because it's got to process .
SolarCat - January 24, 2008 08:26 PM (GMT)
The message says "Within 24 hours" the bonus will be credited, although in my case it only took about 2 hours. Just be patient, it's coming.
LogisticsKing - January 25, 2008 03:32 AM (GMT)
I received the donation money. Thanks :D
Low Gear07 - January 28, 2008 12:31 AM (GMT)
I was curious what kind of link do we have to use in order to get the referral bonus. Everytime I have submitted a link it has been rejected. Any suggestions.
Thoughts?
wilbert smacksley - February 2, 2008 01:15 PM (GMT)
I like Mardans idea. I would be more willing to pay a higher donaction if i knew you were not making enough money to keep the site going. Awesome site. thanks to everybody invovled in it.
Low Gear07 - February 3, 2008 07:25 PM (GMT)
I like that idea of the donation icon. But if it is possible we try something like this. Lets say for instance you donate $40. You get $10,000 in game cash. It helps the site, plus it also benefits the person(s) that is playing the game the more you donate to the game the more you get in return. How is that?
Any comments. Thanks.

radarguy99 - March 30, 2008 06:10 PM (GMT)
You can count on my $20 per month for as long as I play this game.
I also have a suggestion which I will post in the suggestion area.
Admin and Mod team, keep up the excellent work and I do you you make money in the end.
doo rider - March 30, 2008 06:39 PM (GMT)

Shoot, I don't care if "my Paypal" goes negative, positive, or inside out, I'll make a donation whenever I can

Donations are processed automatically, it is not necessary to include a note for your driver ID.
JustSlick - October 20, 2008 05:58 AM (GMT)
