why not paypal? - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

EDIT: oh shit, maybe im just too stupid to use the system.
can I send paypal to this address: develdevil36@yahoo.com ?

maybe you guys should make it more obvious for stupid people like me, as my assumption is that you only accept yahoo paydirect, consequently I never clicked the link that had the email addy.

Halx, why not open up a paypal account?

I have asked the question before (as part of another topic), and am fairly certain that I got no response.
Ive donated money to the car forums that Im a part of, and I have no problem donating $10-20 to the TFproject. But it seems excessive to go through the process of opening up a new online account, and reverifying credit cards, etc to make one nonbusiness transaction through a system that I'll never use again. (yahoo thing)

anyone else feel the same way or am I the lone ranger on this one?

Im sure someone will correct me if im wrong...

Its my understanding that paypal considers this an adult site and it is against their TOS to deal with adult sites, hence TFP has been banned from paypal use

If that case is correct, then I could probably send out a money order from the post office. our bastard mailman doesnt pick letters up.

can anyone verify that statement?
