We should be able to send donations trough PayPal as a "gift", that way the person will not be able to dispute and reclaim the money.
Gifts can be reversed just as any other payment can.
Just a note though...
If whoever gets the money finds themselves in a dispute, and then they win the claim and get the money back, PayPal will automatically fight any further dispute for them, and will take the side of the seller.
So if Matthew won a dispute, then started accepting paypal, he would be safe.

There's always some, "if you do this, they can't charge back" scheme - and then they get proven wrong.
If a seller amicably resolves a PayPal dispute or wins a claim, is the seller covered against chargebacks?
Yes, if you amicably resolve a dispute through the Resolution Center, Paypal will protect you 100% against any future claim, chargeback or bank reversal the buyer may file for that transaction.
To be covered, however, the seller must honor agreements made with the buyer during the dispute resolution process. And, if the chargeback comes in before the dispute or claim is resolved, the seller will not be covered.
It looks to me like they mean future claims from that one buyer.And then winning one, PayPal will side with you in future claims. ^^^
Donations are closed anyway aren't they?
Well what you can do is once someone pays you through paypal you just transfer the money to a bank account which will take a couple days and once that happens they can't get money back.
Im assuming people charge back with donations so they get the cool pictures under their name or whatever. So you could say once they donate you will contact them within a week and by then the money will be in a bank account and irreversible.
Paypal accounts can go into negative credit...
