Hey folks. It's been a while since I ran the last donation drive. You'll be pleased to hear that I've cut our monthly bill in half and we now only pay $200 a month for our two servers. We also have a much higher bandwidth allowance. The TFP has been run through donations from the very beginning (over 5 years now) and I'm really pleased to make this adjustment, so people know that their contribution helps a higher percentage of the monthly dues.. or some logic like that. This means one thing that I'd like to talk to you about...
Assuming people are still motivated to donate, I expect to have a lot of money saved up in the TFP's account. Currently, we have another month left in the tank, and if this post inspires people, I hope to have at least 4 months in the account at all times. I could consider anything more than that "open ended funds."
So what will those open ended funds be used for? That's what I'm asking you guys.
Contest prizes? T shirts? Advertisements to get more traffic? New technology? A roaming masseuse?
Of course we're not getting anything fun if we don't get donations, but we can daydream.
