Well, we're still online... could go dead though any day.. IW may be going down.
 
It looks like IW is going to be going offline, I can't raise enough to keep us going this month--as I said, we would be fine after this Month, but with medical bills, having a car accident we didn't cause just ruined everything.

I've been in major pain for 3 Months now, and its also costing more. They don't know what this 'new' pain is, but its on my side near my stomach. Kidneys are fine, but this pain is making me go nuts. I don't know if I can deal with this much more. Its sapped everything out of me lately, and I hate it.

So I'm getting MORE tests done... I'm sure they won't find out whats wrong as usual.. Just frustrated. Depressed at the moment over this shit......

Anyway, that is why I needed help. If you can help save IWF, please do. I don't want it to end..

There's always things like Ebay, selling any old electronics you might have like video cards, ram sticks, old hard drives, cameras etc. I remember using it more than once to scrounge up some extra money when I was in a tight spot. I haven't used it in the last few years but from what I see selling has only become simpler. You'd be amazed at what you will find boxed away but perfectly usable for someone else. I used to sell all my old video cards for half the price and remember being plesantly surprised that someone wanted my geforce ti 4600 or my 6600 gt even if I no longer did.

While electronics are pretty easy sellers, other stuff will go too. If all else fails there is always the option of having a garage sale in your own neighbourhood. Even if you live on a small street, people will come for a mosey 'round at least. Worth a shot, eh?

Yep, been digging around looking for stuff to sell. (I watch American Pickers and wish I had that gem to find) :).

I have all my original DOS games with mint boxes... Wonder if they're worth anything.. I have the collectors edition of Warcraft 3 in that massive black box.. wonder if that would sell.. will check prices!

The DOS games- and I am assuming you mean like, the old FR stuff such as Azure Bonds and Hillsfar, do sell but you won't be the first to have them there and may have a hard time shifting them quickly. Still, mint boxes might interest collectors and some such. Do you have Menzoberranzan by chance? I lost my copy years ago - LOVED that game.

I have it, but it's part of the "Forgotten Realms" set I got--had all the goldbox games, EOB's and Menzo (and the ravenloft game I think).. not the single copy. I *DO* have EOB 1,2,3 and most of the goldbox games though..

Pulled out 'Out of this World' (what it was called in the USA) also pulled out 'Stunts' and the first Need For Speed! :)

And an odd rare game called Fade to Black.. Cool shaped box btw..

Classic ! Fond memories of tracks such as Vertigo Ridge and Autumn Valley, and that unlockable turbine car :)

I just threw out all of my old Forgotten Realms games. I didn't know that they were still in demand? They were great games in their time. I spent a lot of time sitting in front of the old Amiga creating maps with my brother. It was hard to throw away all of those memories.
