Hey all,

Just copying myself from 2020 who copied VaRK's post from 2019, which copied...  :hysterical:

We need $380 this year to cover WNFF for the year.

Expected costs for 2021 are 380.17:

30/mo for plan
20.17 for the year for the domain name, SSL cert, and other minor costs.

Quote
The time has once again come for all y'all bandwidth hogs and hogettes to chip in.  Given the terrific response we had last year, I'm hoping that we can "sell-out" even faster in 2019.

I'm quoting the pertinent information from previous years.  If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to PM The Chief :)

You are free to donate as little or as much as you'd like.  This is and always will be a free site, and contributing is completely voluntary. All donations will be used to pay for hosting costs, domain renewal, and any other fees that apply directly to running the site.  I greatly appreciate donations of any amount.  You are not required to donate, so only give what you are willing and able to provide.  Any overflow donations will simply be rolled over towards next year's costs.

HOW TO DONATE

Under your forum profile settings, you'll see an "Actions" subsection with a "Paid Subscriptions" option, as shown below.  Simply choose a payment option from the drop-down list and click "order", then "order with PayPal", at which point you'll be taken to PayPal to enter your information and payment method (a PayPal account is NOT required, but they'll try to talk you into signing up for one if you use the "guest" option.  Feel free to ignore them).

You can make multiple donations if none of the dollar amounts in the list fit the exact amount you wanted to donate.

The day/week/month/year and subscription length don't mean anything, so just ignore them.  These are one-time payments ONLY.  Once you've completed the payment process at PayPal, your "subscription" will show as "active"



Thanks to everyone who makes this community what it is!

Profit sharing? Stock options? Employee bonus? Those of us who toil behind the curtain deserve a little something, something.  :money: :mg:
