We appreciate the sentiment, but accepting donations would make our legal situation worse.

I've done some research on the legalities and history of game cloning and to my understanding no one has yet to be actually sued and in the vast majority of cases the original owners just ask the cloners to stop and then they stop. RA1 and CNC1 are not financially supporting EA so you are not stealing from their profits by cloning them. It would be a lose of money for them to even bother paying someone to email you and follow up with the email to see if you will stop cloning the game.
You really should accept donations if you can manage to figure out how to split it amongst the developers. It can be used to pay for servers etc.

They are allowed to accept donations / payments for the use of their server. This would be allowed if they were running the original ra / cnc so how is it different now?
From my understanding the game with a simple graphics replacement does not escape you from copyright infringement anyways.
I just hope the developers don't hold back anything because of copyright, take the remake to the max and accept donations if people offer!
