The community uses the proprietary software "Prometheus" found on the Garry's Mod store for collecting donations. It acts as a backend connecting a database to 1 or many Garry's Mod servers while simultaneously providing a front-end for customers to make purchases.[4][5]

Purchasable items are separated by gamemode. There are presently 4 categories: Trouble in Terrorist Town, Murder, Prop Hunt, and Death Run.[6] Each category allows the customer to purchase PointShop[b] points, Premium[c] points, and/or the in-game rank of "Donor" (which includes PointShop and Premium points). All purchases are 1-time. The rank of Donor notably grants access to the commands gag, mute,[d] and kick in-game.[7] The use of these commands are subject to guidelines set-forth by the management team in-charge of each game mode, with players capable of reporting violations to a dedicated forum board.[8][9]
