I'm in the same boat as a lot of other people. High School student. Jobless. My family is in a tight situation financially (just bought a house, need a third car, sister's in college, I'm heading off next year ect.).
I think the big thing is people are kinda sketchy about pure donating. Obviously if you were allowed to (which I believe you're not) and did start charging to play Layonara, people would fork it over. Layonara is something worth paying for, but since it's free already people (including me, even though I don't play any more) have a hard time forking out money for something they don't technically need to pay for.
For me, I plan on taking a dollar out of my wallet every now and again and hiding it away. I'll come back to it in a month or so and see what's accumulated and donate it or buy something from the Layo store. It's just one of those things. "Do I really need that Vault? No. Hide the dollar before I change my mind!"
As for the shop, I would totally buy a stick figure t-shirt (like those ones that Milo used to make) with a funny quote attached. Or a shirt with the quote, "heh: let the world know you're slightly amused." People like funny stuff... make funny stuff, people will buy it. That is all.
...I just saw all of the shirts... I'm in heaven... (Still, stick figures would be schweet as well... but yeah...)
