Just like my first donation a few month's ago, I can't afford much, but will send what I can to support the TFP! Hubby and I are in the "lower income" bracket and can still scrape together enough to send to Halx, because we both love the TFP. Trust me, it's not much because we sent a little bit to the Tsunami Relief effort not too long ago.

Please guys, if you like or love this site, then cough up some dough to support it. If all you can afford is 5 bucks, I'm guessing that Halx isin't going to scoff at your donation.

*bump


the TFP is banner free for a reason...

if i weren't living hand to mouth right now, i'd definetly be donating.. but i'm simply unable to at the moment :( soon as i can, i'll be sure to send a donation your way ;)

* bump . . .

Okay, I've donated 2 times so far, not much . . . but a little. . .

give if you can . . .

and get a kiss from Sweetpea :icare:

I think I have another Twenty layin' around here somewhere

Ka-Ching

Hal, do you have a PO box to send payments to yet?

If even 1,000 of the 40K+ members here donated one dollar that would be two months or so of the overhead they need, or if 500 donated $2...and so on.

Let's make this happen peeps.

Damn, I thought I had more in paypal, but I only have $0.80. :(

*bump.

Donate if you can please.

Can someone post again what the up to date(or preferred) methods of payment are?

Thanks.

To be honest with you all, I can't afford to be supporting the brunt of the TFP anymore. The site has grown to the point where the users SHOULD be able to support it with donations every month. You'd think with our membership, a small percentage of generous people could keep it running with no problems. Well, here are the figures:

This month's hosting bill: $443
This month's donation total: $186 (Minus roughly 3%, due to paypal fees)

I'm in a new situation now where I don't have quite the financial freedom that I once had, so I need your help. Please donate and help the site out.

Right now, I can only accept paypal. Please contact me for the paypal information.

PayPal is not a bank and not regulated by any agencies--that being said, they can do what they want and there is no recourse whatsoever for their actions.

I lost several hundred dollars due to having information "similar" to someone that committed fraud. Nothing I can do about it, no one to complain to....the money is lost.

I have offered to donate via other means, but I cannot and will not use PayPal.

I would love to donate and have offered to do so several times, limiting me to PayPal, means no donation from me.

I second KMA-628 about Paypal.

I'd be happy to donate to a PO box, though.

I've donated previously when there were options other than paypal, and will donate again once a better option becomes available again.

Paypal or no Paypal, you would figure, everyone who cares about having this site up and running would take the chance and make the donation. I will be, even if I can only send a few dollars, it's going to be something and it will be through Paypal, regardless of whether I like them or not.

You have a choice: be childish and not support TFP or be an adult and do what you can. I am choosing to be an adult...I grew up a long time ago.

You seem to have an ever increasing habit of attacking people when you don't know all of the facts.

I will repeat, in case I wasn't clear.

I would like to donate and I have donated in the past (not through PayPal).

Not only did I lose a lot of money to PayPal "limiting" my account, any money that I would try and push through PayPal would never get to its intended destonation.

All because my info is similar to someone else's. Am I guilty? Nope. Is there anything I can do about it? Nope. PayPal is not regulated by ANYBODY. They can do whatever they please and there is nothing you can do about it.

Why you chose this issue as reason to attack people is beyond me. But it does seem to be the way you operate.

Why is this a problem with you?

There is absolutely no reason for anyone to get snippy about DONATIONS. I mean come on people....this sounds like the freakin politics board. Give if you want....dont if you dont.....there is nothing else to it.
