I am sorry but you guys are pathetic. 18000+ users, 196 online now, the 28th day of the month and still $300 left to go out of $400 monthly goal??????

You gotta be kidding me!

Raven, you should start charging for this starting with 2.30.00, in my opinion.

I see you're not commercialy intended.
Why should i provide fun and support and pay to do so?

You go program a PHP mod for phpBB that allows the admin to set a support board on "pay per topic"
This is very effective!
1. People think before they post a support request
2. Because they have brains they search first
3. If they can't find the question they start a "paid topic" (topic stays public)
4. Reduces multiple topics about the same question
5. Raven gets money

I apologize if I have offended anyone who has or does support this worth cause, that was not my intent.

It looks like the "Land of Plenty" has changed.
Maybe Obama is able to change it again.
Didn´t understand this ? Doesn´t matter. ..
"I will donate" is for the most regular users here just a phrase.
Show me the opposite if I´m wrong with my opinion.

"Where there's a will there's a way." Smile

Maybe the financial status is not good but I think everybody who runs a website with all costs is able to donate a few Dollars.

Humm, didn't know the US was the only country coming here Susann? Nice slam any how....... Rolling Eyes

Well there aren´t any statistics available from which country are the users with the most support questions and the most donations.
But Paypal is international and therefore it shouldn´t be a problem for this international community to help to keep this server online.

We could discuss this again and again but this will not change the facts which Doulos posted above.
