peasepud 59 Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 As you know a lot of work has gone on lately to get this forum into a better state, as a result we now have a much more responsive, user friendly and much faster site. This has however come at a cost, we now have hosting bills of over £40 per month and have had to upgrade the software. between the 4 of the fulltime admins (Me, Craig, Tom and now Ant) we will ensure that it never goes down and the bills are paid however many of you have offered to chip in on numerous occasions, usually when its been running like a pissed Heather MIlls. Now that its like a whippet on speed will you be so generous? Any amount will be gratefully received and all monies raised will go on the running of this place, we've agreed that Toms penchant for hookers in custard will no longer be subsidised by toontastic, those days are long gone. Anyone donating a tenner or more will be added to an Investors group, with a new badge to show that you are along with a toontastic.net email address. Just PM one of us if you'd rather not promote the fact you're flush. Please note however, a donation does not make you immune from any moderation required, likewise you'll be treat no differently if you dont donate, you will simply have it imprinted on your conscience that my child shall go hungry once in a while There is a donate button on the main page, please think of the children Thank You Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
south_cheshire_toon 0 Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 It would be better, if, say, at the start of every new season, a PM was sent to everyone asking for a donation. This way you'll get a good lump of donations and people will remember to cough up as it's a yearly thing (I donate to Wiki at Xmas). Also as well, without revealing the true amount there could be a 'graph' or icon showing what the finances are like as in Very Good to scraping the bottom of the barrel, and then that might jerk people into making a donation.

Gemmill 34176 Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 I'll do something once I've moved house. Every penny is accounted for at the minute. Yeah that's right, I mentioned my house move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monroe Transfer 0 Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 £30 donated. If I put another £10 towards the site can I be an admin for a day and allowed to do as I wish? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, but that's incredibly generous of you - thank you. Although you've got Michaelangelo as your avatar, so fuck it, why not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howmanheyman 26606 Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 I donated £10 the other day. Can an admin or mod nip round to mine to explain to the kids why there's no food on the table and no pocket money this week. Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
