    Out of curiosity I would like to know if it is allowed to sell your in-game money for real money.
    This transaction can be done through Paypal and nobody can get scammed because of Paypal buyer protection.
    I would love to know if this is allowed because I have 3 Million on Skyblock 3 and I would like to use the money I make to get a rank.

    Probably won't happen. Let's say some kid is in the top 5 for /baltop, that's easy money for him/her. You expect a 10 year old with a PayPal account?

    Then what would be the point in donating?

    Think about it.

    J&H need real-life money to run the server.

    If you were able to buy the same ranks from in-game money, everyone would start doing that instead of donating real money.

    Then, since J&H don't get real-life money, they won't be able to run the server.

    So no, you're not able to donate with in-game money.

    To add on on what Wiki said, Let's put Skyblock money as credits.

    3 million credits won't get you much since they literally have no value in reality. 3 million would probably be around 2-5 dollars.

    That's from IRL money to Skyblock $

    Skyblock $ to IRL money is much higher since skyblock money doesn't have any value IRL.

    3 million skyblock bucks ain't 3 million IRL.

    Most people in skyblock have 10k+ in money. Just because you can buy money in BuyCraft doesn't mean you can reverse it. If this was added, where do you think the money would come from?

    All their money comes in from donating. If everyone uses this method and earns money, then J&H will be broke.
    Think of the value your Skyblock money is to J&H. What can they do with that money?? Use that stuff to improve the server? No.

    Edit: Just because the store says 100k for $45 bucks doesn't mean you can sell 100k to earn back $45. It's basically stealing from them

    Look :L
    Skyblock Minecraft Plugin Money is NOT the same as real money mkay?
    If everyone started making a HUGE Farm and got like 450K perday...people would maybe be able to afford [Premium] within 1-2 Months.
    But once again...
    Jerry and Harry use REAL (R-e-a-l) life money.
    Not imaginary Skyblock Minecraft Plugin Money.

    They need. Real life. Money
