Tonight we will be removing all store black market packages & ancient/legendary/perk keys from the webstore for Factions, to remove the "Pay2Win" from the gamemode. All of these packages/perks are now instead available through Kilton's Soul Shop in-game.
I have also lowered all the soul prices in Kilton's shop and made the Elite Crate cosmetic only.
There are 2 main reasons behind this decision
Will payouts stay the same?
Yes, we will still continue doing paypal payouts at the current amounts or more.
How will the server be funded?
Factions itself won't make enough revenue to cover it's costs of hosting/payouts/developers/management/etc. Luckily we have many other profitable gamemodes that new players can spill into to make up for this.
Will I lose any of the items I bought this season?
No
I hope everyone is understanding of this change. It is good for the continued longevity and growth of ManaCube

- To comply with Mojang's updated EULA agreement for servers
The updated EULA for servers is more lenient. All of our gamemodes are compliant except Factions, due to it's competitive nature & payouts. - Attract new players who are seeking a no p2w established factions server
100+ player faction servers with no p2w is extremely rare, and we hope this change will attract many new players each season.
