Now, I've read alot of the post about taking away donor abilities and such but i have also read a Very well explained post about why that would ruin everything, anyway i'm going to take a different approach. The donors can keep thier powers but the first say 5 to 10 people who join are immune from donor kicks. I just had the experiance of refreshing my page until a server said cleanup, being the first to join but still being kicked . It's really just so disheartening to have very long gaps between playtime due to this (plus it's sorta rare for me to find an open game)

If you don't want to get kicked I would recommend joining higher number servers. Or you can also try joining Canadian servers only the last 10ish people to join actually get kicked there. As for your idea I don't really think that would work considering it would still be limiting donor's abilities to join a server.

Again I say try joining Canadian servers. The last time I got kicked on one of them was when I was only getting 50kbps and I was something like the 5th to last person to join.

But what would happen if there were say, 5 non-donors who got on first, and everyone else is a donor. When more donors joined would they have to kick other donors instead of non-donors? I understand where you're coming from, but I don't think this would be added.

Glad my thread helped <3 and I'm also glad your handling this calming. You wouldn't believe how many rage treads there are about this.

Unfortunately, there isn't much you can do. Like others mentioned, join higher servers is a good way to do it, watching the server list for servers in DM and starting to join while in DM (spam clicking :p) as well as playing during the later hours, or on CA or AU servers, which usually have less traffic.
If you'd like a possible chance to win donor at a giveaway, follow this thread: http://www.minecraftsurvivalgames.com/threads/a-mcsg-fundraiser-giving-back-to-the-community.32323/
Otherwise, there isn't too much to do.

I believe a thread was created earlier detailing a similar, yet rather more involved idea that, in my opinion, would solve the problem of donor kicks, while still not completely destroying their privileges.

The idea went like this:

Iron donors would have the ability to kick 50% (or last 12 players) of the lobby

Gold donors would have the ability to kick 75% of the lobby (including iron donors if there were no non-donors in the last 18 players).

And finally, diamond donors would have the ability to kick anyone in the lobby besides VIP's and Mods+

It's a rather creative solution that I rather like, but, in the end, it's up to the Devs, not us.

Zeno this idea that you've stated is what i started thinking about later when i wanted to go more into detail, but i was just so frustarted that no matter what server i joined a donor would come and kick out everyone in the lobby, but i guess the one true soloution to this is to just become a donor, it's really only 10$. but for now i'll take all the suggestions stated

When other donors try to join, it will say server is full.
But what would happen if there were say, 5 non-donors who got on first, and everyone else is a donor. When more donors joined would they have to kick other donors instead of non-donors? I understand where you're coming from, but I don't think this would be added.
