Donator Zone Features
As it's not extremely clear for newer/non-donor players what the Donator Zone has, hopefully this'll clear some of that up.
I'll make an effort to keep this updated as things are changed, as it's still a work-in-progress.

Donator Zone
For those of you who have the Emerald rank or above, you'll have access to the Donator Zone by typing ;;dz in-game!
Below are a collection of screenshots and close-ups of each area, which features it has and a brief description of what it may include or be used for.
Spiritual Fairy Tree
For the most convenient access to a Spirit tree or Fairy ring, this is a must-have for clue hunters, as some clue steps are unreachable without fairy rings, such as Miscellania steps.
Thieving Area
One of the most competitive thieving training and money-making methods for the early stages can be found here, as the shop to sell thieved items is directly beside the highest level stall.
You can easily train thieving from 1-99 and make a couple bones while you're at it!
Mining Area
The convenience of having most mid-to-high level ores available in a single area. Despite not having a bank right beside it, it's still a bonus for low-level ironmen in particular (maybe there should be a bank?).
Combat Training Area
A convenient, AFK-friendly option with low defence and high hitpoints for training all combat skills without disruption. Also very competitive in XP rates due to the increased XP within the area.
Woodcutting
A great place gain the fastest woodcutting XP in-game if you're paying attention. Alternatively, it's the best source of logs to make planks for filthy skillers, due to the proximity of the bank.
Fishing & Cooking
A bank, fire and all of the fishing spots you'd ever need have been consolidated into one area. This includes Karambwans, Sharks, Anglerfish and more!
Runecrafting
The Ourania/ZMI Altar is available within this area, this is the best Runecrafting experience in the game, due to the proximity of the bank. That works for me!
Construction
Despite not having many uses, this is at the very least useful for closer and easier access to the POH portal.
Hunter
For safe, competitive Hunter experience, this place takes the cake. A generous mix of Crimson Swifts and Red Chinchompas to satisfy those training arguably the worst/most boring skill in the game.
Donator Store
The donator store, of which can be accessed by speaking with Jiminua. The contents of the shop can be found near the top of this thread.
