LevelledMobs Continued Development
LevelledMobs development is fueled by user support: we aren't paid, we aren't sponsored, it's just pure voluntary contribution.
Thanks to the generous people out there who have supported the project over the years - be it code contributors, testers, donors, and so on.
We only usually receive ~2 small contributions per month. If LevelledMobs has improved your server, we'd greatly appreciate if you would support the project back in some manner.
Below is a list of ways that you can contribute to LevelledMobs - most of them are super easy.

• We currently desire testers, especially for LM4 dev builds. This requires zero special skills, just a little bit of your time. It is greatly appreciated.
  • Grab the 'Volunteer Testers' role on our Discord guild, near the bottom of the #readme channel. [takes under 10s]
  • You'll get a ping as soon as we have a dev build ready for testing. You can remove the role at any time.
  • A brief test takes ~10 minutes, which just makes sure the default config works (seemingly) perfectly on your server. An extensive test takes ~25+ minutes, where you change things in the config and make sure those work too.
• Easy methods
  • Submit a review on our resource page with a general comment or constructive feedback. [takes under 1m]
  • Star our GitHub repository. [takes under 5s]
  • Donate to a teammember (see section below). [takes under 30s]
• Content contribution
  • Create translations of the configuration files
  • Improve our Wiki
  • Add/improve code
  • Publish a video demonstration of the plugin
• Other
  • Become a volunteer helper on our Discord guild
