Re: my dream, your nightmare
The saving thing I think people have misconceptions about. This isn't the concept of storing your playerfile to disk or something else like that, yes a moo is configurable in when and how often it checkpoints, this isn't that though. The saving is akin to Hellmoo's clones where you update your data at the clone banks. SO, the donator item just takes care of that for you automatically. This is what happens if you die, if you're a newbie, you're immune from the system, past that point, you need to type save at important points in your char's career. You can do that as often as you wish unless that was changed since I've last played, so there's no strategy to it. When you die, you're restored to life with the stats of your last save. It's not as though your complete existence is rolled back, things like money will remain with you, vehicles you own, stuff of that nature, you will still have all your weapons, items, vehicle phobs, things like that, just your physical stats will be reverted, as well as your level and some other things.
This therefore isn't a scam, or a distasteful thing of that nature since you're not being forced to pay for the moo's checkpoints. Actually its quite possible to get your hands on donator items without ever having given a cent. Just submitting a profile will net you 500RP, and if not, well, bug someone about it, not all hosts do that, but its in the help file so it should be honored. There are also events and stuff every once in a while where you can win donator cash. Also, if you input your birthday IRL, you can get a donator item of up to 15 pounds on your birthday if you put in a ticket for it.
