realm members can pay subscription

I own a realm and I switch between 2 and 10 players by the month depending on who wants to play. But some months I cant pay and other members can. (All family) so some months I have to give them my account info so they can pay the on my account or they give me bank info and pay with there card on my account... you can see where this makes us all uncomfortable. Also we shouldn't have to cancel subscription and wait to change the number of people who can join. We should be able to select number of players in middle of month and next month it charges proper amount, or be able to upgrade in middle of month. Also I think there should be a 5 player option, 2 seems unreasonable.

    This would solve so many problems, in example my friend is owner of the server, but another friend and myself have paid 3 out of every 4 months.. I feel like it needs multiple owners or multiple paying sources.

    This should be like a donation system where people can donate to pay for it and it can go over and pre pay a few charges and also do add five player realms

    I agree this should be looked into. I hosted a realm for over two years and closed it for the lack of protections. As the host of a realm I feel it is my obligation to give players the best environmet for comfortable gameplay. Being able to donate to your favorite realm would ensure its longevity. This is something I attempted to do via a paypal money pool and a discord community to no avail. If it was a direct payment to the realm itself without involving a third party that could potentially be misuesd I think most people would feel more confident in donating. It would also be very cool to customize names in chat with colors so you can display you are a donator. No in game items or such that violate the EULA, just a visual thing to show everyone your a supporter of the realm you are currently in. As far as player cap otions, I feel like it should be more along these lines, 5 replacing the 2 player option), 10 as it is now, 20 for about twice the amount as the 10 player option and then beyond that have it be more of an incremental scale going up by 2 slots for a fixed amount of money. this would be amazing for those larger realms who get a ton of traffic.

    Yes, this would be a great donation system to only the realm subscription and not used for profit.
