I think because they don't want to activly take donations themselves as that would mean they would "earn" money from the server and put themselves in Blizzards ban visor.

Most of my knowledge about this is from my interaction with them as a member of a non-profit organisation which has benefited from a couple of specific ones.
In Sweden we have a term called "Stiftelse" it's close to a trust but i dont know enough about trusts to really compare, from a legal standpoint a "Stiftelse" owns it self and all money in care of it may only be transfered/used according to the legal document drafted at its creation.
Also every "Stiftelse" is under supervision of the state.
Some are exempt from tax though I'm not clear on what is required to be exempt.
My knowledge of the specific type of "Stiftelse" that our endeavour would be is very limited as its not the type i have had interactions with.

There should be similar things elsewhere (as the concept of a trust or trust-like organisation is an old one). Is there something like this in France? Seems like a logical place (for us) to have such a thing if it exists.

Could this be something worth looking into? (obviously I think so :P)

I made a donation for 3 months for this:

"Hardware #4 - 10€ / month - 16th March 2017"

But I can't PM the admins, I get a message I need to participate more before I can have access to this feature :)

The community could set up a crowdfund and fund the 260 with different members paying a small number.

We have to find a reliable way to do this so somebody can't just run off with all the money.

I can understand not wanting to get in Blizzards bad book by asking for money, but cant they just label it as a server maintenance cost and ask everyone seeking to play, to pay a small fee for maintenance, surely they cant get sued for non profit?

Id happily donate if it meant keeping the server going without lag. :)

I think this discussion on it's own already put us in Blizzards bad book :(
