We have a few **NON-P2W** perks, as a thanks for donating. ### **Why Donate?** > Whilst ChillZone has a great, dedicated staff team- it has always been a one man project. The whole network, from the countless linux machines to the Discord server, are maintained and updated by myself only. Previously ChillZone has been funded solely out of my own pocket - we've been lucky enough to have lovely supporters covering a large portion of the month bill this season, however I am a fairly broke student with limited resources, therefore donations are greatly appreciated to both support the future of ChillZone & also fund future updates. > > ChillZone is, and has always been, a passion project. Donations go entirely to the server and the expansion of it. This server will never be for-profit, and will never give a competitive advantage to donators, as long as I control it. > > With the insane peak counts we've seen recently, our monthly costs in turn have grown tremendously. We currently pay over £100/m for our dedicated server, and far more in general for the rest of the services we run! We have 3 patron rank tiers if you donate via Patreon. You keep your rank as long as you are subbed. For one time donators, or expired multi-month patreon subs, you will get a Donator rank. This still has a cool title and some perks, like /nick, but just less than Patrons. * * (patreon alternative, some people have had success with this when patreon wouldnt work for them) * (One time donations to qualify for Donator rank must be atleast $5). --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter: ``` GET https://guide.chillzone.cc/getting-started/donating/info.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
