double post:

oh.. and *all* contributions during september will get an underbanner, even if it's on a subscription...

Wohooo donation sent! That was easier than I thought it would be. ^_^

wait so if i've contributed in the past i get an underbanner as well?

i'd very much like to contribute again and continue to, but i can't spare it at this moment in time.

No, the underbanner is for the warchest, which goes to finding a new host. If you are not currently donating this month or whatever it may be, you won't receive the underbanner, unless you're a monthly contributor, in which case you will get it.
However, the banner that goes below someones username or wherever they plan on putting it when it's ready, you will get if you have donated in the past/present/future.

That's my understanding of it. Hoped that help clarify.

Donated. Hopefully we can get rid of this host soon.

TheAnimal is correct-- the 'war chest' underbanner will go to *any* donations this month, even those making a regular monthly donation-- which seems fair instead of asking for two donations from them-- and part of the 'war chest' is to cover our current host during the move also.

Noen -- we are working on the old 'donor's icon' system, which will put a permanent icon under your name if you have contributed in the past, so you should get one of those when they come out. that requires some programming and such-- see the topic on the contest to design those icons.

thanks to all who've contributed so far-- we've had some additional donations come in the past few days, and we're at about the 50% mark right now.

thanks everyone!

I've got a constant job now so I'll do a monthly donation. Hopefully RV will be the shining star it once was.

*Problem, I just tried to set up a subscription but said I need to use my paypal account since I have an account. I only use this paypal account for business but the card for both, is there a way I can still use my card without the paypal account?

smurf - i thought you could do it either way, whether you had a pp account or not-- i'll check at pp and let you know something.

thanks!

How close are we to a new host, Hiker?

we're still hovering around 50%... not much has come in the past few days... we need to move this along, or we'll end up just spending the money on our current host... -- another month starts in a couple of days....

we have had some more come in the past couple of days, including a 2nd contribution from a member who had already made a nice donation... so we're at about 75-80% right now.

I wish I could help out, but.. I'm still kind of living on the floor of an apartment for the time being. Can't really spare any cash until I find a job, and the job market here in Phoenix is not friendly..

Hope we get enough donations in time though.

I whipped up some extra pennies, they are on their way, Hiker

I should be able to donate a second time soon if I get my money straight.

Ok, there's my pathetic attempt at cheerleading. We're almost there.

Second donation was just sent in today. Sorry about that, Hiker.

well.. we *are* almost there... close enough that i'm going to start moving on this... i'd been delaying some things to be sure we were going to make it...

but please don't forget, that once we have a new server, we have to keep current with it, and *on time*.... the new host will not let us get behind, or wait until donations come in... so please remember this was a 'special deal' and that we'll still need regular donations in the future just to keep us going...

however, i'm also extending the 'special deal' until Oct 30 -- that is any donation between Sept. 1 and Oct. 30 will get the special underbanner (great design by Fear!).... if you have made a donation since then, you may link to the banner in your sig... the link is

Donations made before sept 1 or after oct 30 will still qualify you to display a special 'donor' icon in your posts and profile... icons are being designed in another thread.

thanks to everyone, especially the 'retreads' who came back with second donations during this drive.

great going everyone!

remember this is the last day for a donation that gets you the uber cool 'war chest' underbar.



of course donations after today are still needed, and will get you a spot on the new and improved 'donor's' page', soon to be released!

Please keep in mind, that now that we have a new server, we've got to *keep* the new server.

The War Chest bought us a bit of breathing room, but we need that room to accumulate donations to pay the next bill when it comes due.

It's like shoveling out a stable-- the work just keeps piling up and the job's never done-- same way with server bills

Thanks again everyone, and especially the War Chest Donors! You made it happen!
