Donators get their own servers

After all of the donator spam tonight, I came up with an idea. Donators getting their own servers.

I don't mean like 40 servers, but maybe 4-5 servers for each country that are restricted to donators only. Now, this doesn't mean the kick feature is removed, but it will lower the heat on normal players. These servers could have their own advantages, maybe more specific voting, and better item spawns (just off the top top my head).

This will resolve the kicking issue (mostly), and also give donators another thing for their money. Therefore, giving something a little extra to both parties.

Its an interesting idea, but by doing this, you are also taking away 4-5 servers that non donors can join. Adding 4-5 extra servers costs a lot of money. Especially doing it for every area. Plus, donators tend to be better than the normal noob. So the donors will still go joining other servers. I highly doubt this will be accepted for multiple reasons, probably some I'm not including.

Even though it will take 4-5 servers, long term wise it is letting more non-donators join. If they are better than they'd probably prefer more of a challange.

You would think that, but really, they like easy matches. They aren't scared of fighting challenging matches but they prefer the ones full of noobs.

Well most donators i know are friends with some other ones so they can meet up there in a basically private server.

Awkward moment when AU only has 8 servers.

Also, I say no.

Another option would be a randomization system, this way if people have slow computers or just bad luck, they don't have to always worry.

I am certain that this has been suggested before. There are always posts saying "I can't find a free server to play on". This would make matters worse by culling some servers off for donors.

Also, the majority of the donators have friends who are regular. This would make us go onto a normal server to play with them, and therefore kicking other players anyway. You go back to where you started.
The only people who complain on the fourms are the 8 year olds with 0 wins and 4 points, and them, in my opinion, are dirt.

It's a no from me.
