You should consider getting back those click banners. They dropped you cuz noone was clicking on them - the truth is I didn't even know they existed. AS I said before, if you get them back and people click them at least once per visit you'd be sorted.

Hi Ziroc,
I want to help you ( I am currently searching a way to make a donation from Germany without making a second "donation" to the bank ). I really wouldn't like it to send creditcards informations through the web ( I'm a suspicious about that ) but this is a great Forum and I want to see it survive so if I don't find another way I think I'll join Paypal . P.S. Do you pay 400 Dollars a month, three months or in a year ? Maybe it's a silly question, but I really don't know . Greetings [img]graemlins/monster5.gif[/img] |

Posted above is the exact reason I will not donate to the site. This does not show me that any action is being taken to correct the financial problems. It actually shows me that any contribution I may make could be in vain. This same post appears every month around the same time. How long before the contributors fail to pay the bills? How long until a few get tired of carrying the weight of many? Its time to realize that running a site this large is a business as such; it has to be run as a business. You cannot cater to the needs of everyone, because if you try you will go under and everyone will lose. Look at the situation realistically. If you created a membership program that charged $4.00 per YEAR, all expenses would be paid assuming less than 10% of the community decided to take part. Is that really asking too much from people? Leave General Discussion as an open post forum. Change all the others to view only unless a member. I can understand the situation some people are in that limits the amount of money they have to spend, but if you are paying for Internet service, you can afford $4.00 per year. Set up subscriptions in 3 mo., 6 mo., and 1-year blocks. That way people could choose what is good for them. All the kids can get a subscription for a year for their birthday or Christmas. I highly doubt any parent would deny a $4.00 stocking stuffer subscription if asked. You stated yourself; it is worth running a site for people who do not care? My question for you would be, “Is it fair for a few who care about the site to pay for the many that visit?” Solve the financial problem in a realistic manner and I’ll be one of the first to offer my contribution. I cannot be a contributing factor to an ongoing problem such as how things are now. |

@ Ziroc:
I think you should try Maelakin's suggestion (if everything else fails). I'd become a member because I really like this place. It's great. It would be a shame to loose it, because of lack of support from the members.

I do agree with what was stated above with having a $4.00 subscription fee..it's barely more than a penny a day, and as also stated I'm sure parents would love to get away with a $4.00 present that the kid would use more than say an ornament or something like that.
Think about it. [img]tongue.gif[/img] |
