No problem here. I would be more than willing to donate to the betterment
of the site. Credit card would be easy, but I ubnderstand that it costs to recieve the payments that way. So a money order would be the best bet. For those outside the US you can get International Money Orders, these would be safer than sending cash. Not to mention Zman wouldn't have to get it exchanged. Perhaps you could even buy a new 60gig HD Z! http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...es/biggrin.gif http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...iles/hippy.gif ------------------ http://home.online.no/~tobak/bloodshadows/crest.gif The line between good and evil is a razor sharp thing.

I checked and my other board does it this way. There is a special page for Voluntary donations. It has the address for sending a check/money order and also instructions for transferring funds using paypal. Paypal allows payment directly from a bank acount or credit card. They suggest $15/yr as the average donation, but take anything. Again, it is strictly on a voluntary basis and anyone can use the forums there. They use the donations to offset expenses and keep the number of ads and banners down. I think Z may have to check all the legal/business ramifications, but other than that, it might be a viable solution to our problem. I mailed him the details in case he thinks it could work. In the long run, I hope to see some system in place that keeps the board up and running smoothly and doesn't cause our Webmeister any headaches of financial problems! http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif Cloudy ------------------ http://www.wizardrealm.com/images/bestow1.jpg Raindancer of the Laughing Hyenas Clan Storm-Queen StormCloud of the Black Knight: Heart Mind Soul Forever "To sleep, perchance to dream..." |
Hey guys. There is another solution for sending Z money, if everyone is interested. I use PayPal quite a bit for paying for Ebay auctions, but I also use it to send money back and forth to friends. It's fast, free, and easy to use. And, you can send money from either a checking/savings account or a credit card, so it would allow more flexibility...
Anyway....it's just a thought...for anyone wanting to check out more information on it, here is the link: http://www.paypal.com ------------------ http://members.home.net/bradzinser/M...s/Tempest2.jpg Always listen to your heart, for it will never lead you astray. All bow and cower before the Triumvirate!!! |
Just a note: In order to send the kind of money in the quantities Z may get for the board, he may want to set up a special bank account and have the paypal funds sent directly there, rather than have to authorize each transfer from his email account.
In any case, IF he chooses to do this, he will need a Premium account of his own with paypal in order to accept credit card transfers that total more than $100 in any month, as I recently found out in my personal use of the service. This does entail a small transaction fee for all transfers of any kind over a certain dollar amount, but it's minimal. Hey Z! Bet we're throwing out way more info than you thought you'd have to deal with on a Friday morning! http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...es/biggrin.gif Cloudy ------------------ http://www.wizardrealm.com/images/bestow1.jpg Raindancer of the Laughing Hyenas Clan Storm-Queen StormCloud of the Black Knight: Heart Mind Soul Forever "To sleep, perchance to dream..." |
Paypal sounds promising ... http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif
In the meanwhile, I will send Z. some cash, but if he is willing to implement the Paypal stuff, I will be happy to contribute later that way. http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif ------------------ http://fc1ddq.free.fr/stan2.gif :ninja: The world is my oyster !

OK maybe I am ignorant of money matters (I do work at a bank http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif) but how does this paypal thing allow us to send money? Would Ziroc set it up and then give us account information and we send the money or do we send Ziroc our account/credit card info and he deducts the money? Either way I guess that would be cool, in the meantime can I just send a check?
Someone mentioned it already and I agree, that this site has helped me more than any 'cheat' book or manual ever could so a donation of at least that magnitude is in order! ------------------ http://www.bestanimations.com/fantas.../dragon-04.gif Never try to teach a pig to sing; it wastes your time and it annoys the pig |

You can set up an account with Paypal online. You can use either a bank account or a credit card to take the funds out of and they get transfered to the person you choose. You indicate their email address or a specific account (paypal/bank). If the other person doesn't have a paypal account they will be asked to create one and can do one of two things, electronically transfer your donation to their bank account or ask paypal to issue them a paper check by mail. This works well for those not in the US as they don't have to mess with converting currencies and can do it all by computer. I think you may have to have credit cards 'authorized' prior to using them for transfers this way and I know you have to verify your bank info by telling paypal the dates and amounts of small transfers they make to your account to be sure it IS your account.

Thanks Cloudy!
Sounds like an OK thing for me! I guess until the time it gets set up, I will just send a regular old paper check by snail mail http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif ------------------ http://www.bestanimations.com/fantas.../dragon-04.gif Never try to teach a pig to sing; it wastes your time and it annoys the pig |
Paypal is very easy to use and is how I transfer funds to people who don't want to give me their bank account. http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif
