Inno could give us some Diamonds per server upgrade. Just like in Forge of Empires. They give 500 Diamonds per upgrade to all active players on Beta server.
That's a fair trade to the hard work for players who always play here, finding and reporting bugs.
And this is not complicated to implement, is only writing the code line by saying that every major update, players over 15 days of monthly activity will get 500 diamonds.

Long story short: we would rather spend our "extra" time here on more testing than on preparing contests, especially now that we have so many language servers up and running already, offering you a wide variety of Elvenar-related contests worldwide.
there's a catch. Many players who play here, do not play the "live servers." And they spent money buying diamond here to Beta server. So let's not be selfish as to think that we, players, should be grateful for the chance to play in the beta server and that we should not charge anything. Would it be so hard to create a command line like in the Forge of Empires(another InnoGames game), to give the active players a way to play more in the beta? If not, what are we doing here?

In conclusion.
Doesn't Need to be specifically diamonds as a way to "pay" the players.
Daily bonuses for login every day could be a very good solution for this.
But do not get me wrong. Would have to be bonuses according to the level of each player.
There's no point to give 500, 1000, 1500 supplies for players who produce more in less time.
And, don't do anything, will only increase the unhappiness of the players as well as disloyalty to their game.
