DayzRP administrator collects 120k~ in donations for his Dayz private server over a 2 year period. Spends half of that on himself and then doesn't pay any taxes. Now Sweden wants a healthy chunk of that money and so hes asking for help and crowdfunding from his players (who have already donated 120k).

Gonna be some pretty funny comments in that thread I'm thinking.

I'm really glad UOSA's Ultima online server never gave any special treatment to paying users, so they could avoid all this.

I know with this I've let a lot of you down, but I promise you all on everything I care about that I've never used the DayZRP money to buy myself luxurious or stuff or wasted the money on drugs, partying or other stupid things. Sure, I've bought a quite a few Steam games for myself and staff members, but otherwise if I ever used DayZRP funds for any personal expenses it was always rent, invoices, living costs or car that I needed for my job. I know that isn't much of help now, but I just want to come clean with everyone.

I did not use donation money to buy myself stuff, except when I did.

Americans cant fellate the scandinavian socialist paradises hard or fast enough and yet nobody ends up moving there; why is that when they're so overwhelmingly superior in every way and there is no conceivable reason to remain in the lovely country of your birth?

It's because they won't give us a visa or citizenship. I would have expatriated a decade ago to take advantage of European social programs if it were feasible.

The best thing about this is that because the people who gave money received a service in return, in this case colored text and skins, the money didn't count as a donation and was taxable haha

I found this bit most interesting:

quote:

because the donors on DayZRP receive special ranks and perks due to their donations and received skins in game in the past, the donations cannot be considered gifts, but instead payments for a service that DayZRP provides and therefore should be considered a taxable income - that's how it is defined by the Swedish law.

I guess it makes sense in a way, but drat, that's pretty hosed up to find out after the fact.

There's a ton of Americans living in Sweden. Usually it's because they got married and their spouses didn't want to leave.

Yeah, I'm starting to think that Norway and Denmark are the best Nordic countries. I don't know who the swedish vikings kidnapped, but it sure messed up their descendants.

Can't afford to move to Europe, nor do I speak the language or have any cultural ties to the region. Canada's much closer and would work fine. If things ever get too bad, I'm jumping the border.
