i mentioned this in another subthread, but this is why i think a kofi would work better if money is involved in some way. it's just a tip jar/thank you for hard work, nothing more and nothing less. patreon, though, is set up to provide special goodies depending on how much cash you send their way.
Is Kofi anonymous? An anon tip jar might work, but if names are attached then it would inevitably lead to accusations of mod favoritism.
I think it would lead to wank no matter what, really. There's already been a lot of wank over the personal financial choices of players who beg for money on Plurk or sell commissions/possessions to cover their rent.

that's exactly why i'm uncomfortable with this idea as a mod. i don't want to be put in a situation where i feel like i can't give a player or character any sort of role in the plot or something like that without worrying about whether the rest of the game is going to think i did it just because they gave me money.
