First I want to say, I am NOT asking anyone to do this, it is purely a voluntary matter.
But occasionally, members ask if we can use some money to help out with the site. If you want to help in keeping the site ad free, which is a monthly fee, or just add money to the "General Fund", you can make a donation.
If this sounds like something you wish to do, simply send a PM to "Jer" (click on that name anywhere on the site), and I'll give you my PayPal account ID, along with other details or answers to your questions.
After you've made the donation--and based on the amount--you may qualify to have your member status changed to Website Supporter, along with the appropriate font color change and the stars (refer to DynoDave and 71greengo's ID).
You must be an active member for a minimum of 6 months to qualify for this option, in order to prevent new members from attaining "special" status simply by registering, then donating.
"Active" refers to amount of participation, and quality of posts, and will be decided by me on a case by case basis.
Again, this is not a request for funds, the site is (and will be) just fine without any donations, but it does give members an option of securing a different member status.
"General Fund" assets will be used in the future for--to name a couple--Forum Get Togethers, up front T-shirt money, and any of a number of other occasions that might require some sort of "cash on the barrel head" or up front deposit..
Thanks!!
Jer.
