Skycastlefish Posted September 11, 2010 Posted September 11, 2010 You got kicked to a higher level of Donator. It's transparent to everyone, since we aren't dividing donators by "who gives how much", but should have given you more PM space plus a couple other increases.Thanks Sidewinder. Hey, a few people have mentioned the opening of a charity fund for mumbles but I'm getting tired of waiting for someone else to do it. I don't have much experience setting up paypal accounts and I don't know what other options I have. It seems paypay will collect something like 2.4% of all donations. Can we just donate to this account?!? Would everyone feel comfortable donating any stockpiled funds in this account to helping mumbles? Financial help is one of the few ways we can help.
Gunzway Posted September 11, 2010 Posted September 11, 2010 Yeah, definitely. I'm keen to help him out as well. There would be a considerable amount of expenses due to the accident and I'm sure there's many people here and at other places who would be eager to help a fellow pyro/friend.
dagabu Posted September 11, 2010 Posted September 11, 2010 (edited) If the account is set up as and is donated to using send a gift, there is no charge. PayPal can be sent directly to (EDITED OUT) Give me a day to make sure Chris is OK with this before sending the money please. EDIT: I removed the email link, since Mumbles said the account is closed. See the next page, please! Edited September 13, 2010 by TheSidewinder corrected
TheSidewinder Posted September 11, 2010 Author Posted September 11, 2010 Sounds good, Dave. While I *could* accept money through the board donation account, and would be happy to do so, I agree it might be best to send direct. Keep me posted as to what he says, please. M
Skycastlefish Posted September 11, 2010 Posted September 11, 2010 Great. I didn't know sending direct was an option. Thanks guys.
Mumbles Posted September 13, 2010 Posted September 13, 2010 I will hopefully be able to let you guys know more when everything is figured out, but another pyro might be setting something up for me. Please don't send anything to the account Dave mentioned. It was mysteriously closed a while back, so I would not get ANYTHING sent there. I appreciate the gestures though. You guys truely are wonderful human beings, and it is an honor to consider many of you friends..

TheSidewinder Posted September 20, 2011 Author Posted September 20, 2011 Hiya folks. Someone made a donation, but didn't leave a note as to their forum name. And their paypal account isn't using the same email address as here on the forum. So... would whoever sent the donation please send me a PM with your paypal email address, so I can get you set as a donator? Thanks!
dagabu Posted September 21, 2011 Posted September 21, 2011 Side, when are we up for the chatroom payment? -dag
Bonny Posted September 21, 2011 Posted September 21, 2011 Side, when are we up for the chatroom payment? -dag WTF is a chatroom payment? I've donated in the past, but not recently... I have done so before when there was a "cash call", which I don't recall seeing in awhile. Does the forum need another boost?
dagabu Posted September 22, 2011 Posted September 22, 2011 (edited) The chat room function was $20.00 a year and I like to pay for it but I lost track of the due date. I( actually was thinking I was sending a PM, looks like I just responded to the post instead... Edited September 22, 2011 by dagabu
Mumbles Posted September 22, 2011 Posted September 22, 2011 The last I checked we were doing fairly well monetarily. Enough to continue running things for the foreseeable future. The members here have been more than generous. I really don't see having to put out a request for donations for quite some time, hopefully ever. Enough trickles in throughout the year to pay the bills, plus this really is quite inexpensive to run.
TheSidewinder Posted September 22, 2011 Author Posted September 22, 2011 Yeah, we're in great shape money-wise. No worries there. Chat renewal is due in November, and that's $19.99 which I'll just pay out of the donations. Also, thanks go out to our newest donor, nater. And I still have one donation I can't match, however. Someone with a gmail address that doesn't match the address they're using here. I need them to speak up. Thanks!
TheSidewinder Posted September 29, 2011 Author Posted September 29, 2011 Good news, the person alerted me. A hearty thanks to oldguy for his repeat donation! We greatly appreciate it.
