Donations for new forums

Post by K73SK » Wed Jun 05, 2013 1:40 pm

We're finally implementing a new forums to the website. The old phpbb forums are becoming outdated, less secure, and the mods that are provided for it are losing support. Ip.Board has been discussed for some time now and we've finally decided to implement Ip.Board. However, there's a catch. Rather than it being a completely free forum like phpbb, there's a membership charge. Because the site is run on donations, this is going to be a group job. The site currently has enough donations to last until August 12, 2014 which is a little more than another entire year. After the forum donations have been met, we'll be putting the donation button for 08/12/2014 - 08/12/2015 up.
$40 is going to be where the donations start, and like before, you can just donate through PayPal. Also, if you're already a member of the forums, you do still get rewarded for donations by the means of forum dollars. After the new forums have been created, there's also going to be a change to how the money system works, making things more economical like so be sure to pile up while you can because things aren't going to be as cheap as they are now! Not to mention, more to do with the forum dollars.
If you have questions about the new board, there is still a thread created, located here: CLICK. Just post in there with your questions and someone will get to them as soon as possible.
Also, in case you're wondering why it's $200 instead of $175 as mentioned in the thread, it's because we do plan on installing mods to the forums and not all of these mods are *free*. Therefore, to get them installed, we'll need a little extra money in order to do so.

Donation button is found on the front page http://www.legendoflegaia.net/

Considering that this has been going on for almost 2 months now, I'm considering just taking the donations back to the site and canceling the new forums. $40 of that is mine for the new forums, so in reality, we only received $55 in donations. So we'll stick to these old unsecure forums and just work with them instead. If anyone has any legitimate reasons to oppose this, do so now... For if I make this decision, all $55 in donations will just go to the next years donation cycle instead.

It's only been 2 months, and money doesn't exact fall off trees. I say if we can, give it time. We've been fortunate to always completely reach our cycling goals within a short amount of time. Clearly this wasn't the case this time.

Perhaps a rich Legaian will join soon and help us out. That or Lone will finally win the lottery.


Course I don't really have a preference; really it's up to the rest of the users.
it really do be like that tho

Ok. Our new year term has started so we are currently on 1 year left before a new donation cycle must be met... which is the main thing that made me ask.

How much you need? $10? $20? If only I had a Paypal... If I had your mailing address, I'd send you cash in an envelope. But... Probably can't do that. If I'm only able to give like anywhere from 1-5 dollars, would that be alright? Kinda poor...

The amount left as of now is 96 (200 - 104) but any amount donated is fine, there's no minimum or maximum.
