Martin said:A lot of people say they don't feel like donating since they don't have a Credit Card, or they don't trust or want to use PayPal. In that case, send me a private message and I'll give you my address, so that you can send me a money order.
Im glad to see that you got my E-Mail
{Edit}
Just sent ya a Money order for $50 CND (~$35USD) should be there by the end of the week

paypal is a pain to sign up for i can't stand passwords over 6 digits long.... i'll never remember my new one.... oh yeah, and here's $10....whenever i get this stupid paypal confirm letter....
btw. there's gotta be 16 people on here that can pay $10 and if there isn't then the other of you all suck!
sorry, but my industry (drug traficking) has been hit badly by the crap economy instigated (in a typical fashion) by our latest republican moron. otherwise i pitch in more!
i apologize again, i voted nader!

Well, contrary to the claims of eBay and quite a few other places, paypal does not accept my type of card (bastards...)
I`ll try convince my brother to throw a donation on his card. Probably just $10-20 (paid less than expected - bastards...), but hopefully it`ll be worthwhile.:emutalk:

Help me with the math, this can't be correct. :!!!:
Emutalk has on average about 3000 unique visitors per day; 3000 different people browse it every day (well, even more if you count in that some might have multiple personalities.). 4 of these care enough to keep vBulletin (so far anyway). Roughly, 99,867% of our visitors would rather use some other board software, or they don't care enough to keep vBulletin or don't have any money to donate.
That's interesting. Let's go with WWWThreads, shall we? It would mean a lot less server load and it would save a lot of bandwidth. And it's free! Excellent! :colgate:
I did some more calculating and discovered that I have paid $1400 in server fees since August last year when I got the server. That might be peanuts to you, but I'm a college student and don't have a ton of green, so it's a huge amount to me. Advertising has paid some of that money, but far from all. Maybe half of it, a little less probably. But I'm not complaining, I love this hobby and I'm glad to pay for it.
My point is that I have never begged you for money until now. And when I do, 0,133% of you care enough to do something about it.lain2:

I'm quite let down by the results of this donation.
Thanks to those of you who obviously care though - the few of you who donated. My respect goes out to you.
I'm closing this thread as we're evidently heading nowhere. I will unstick it and remove my announcement as well.
In case you missed it already, I ordered the "own license" for $160 the other day, here's a link in case you doubt that I used the donations for the license:
