I don't run any kind of subscription for this. I don't even have a page for this. You have to do it entirely from your end. In fact, balance transfers are preferred over credit card, as credit card usage carries large transaction fees. I loathe so-called automated "subscriptions" and wouldn't know how to set one up anyway. It's just like how I don't ever use any automatic bill paying systems. I like to manually scrutinize my bills line by line before paying them. If I find the slightest thing out of place, someone is going to be receiving some squirrelly wrath.

I can donate, but I never give my credit card number out by e-mail to anyone ever, need to see a more legitimate secure way of donating, and I want to be assured that if it's through paypal that it be a one time charge on my card, those prick's at paypal took 5 bucks for another month subscription to exnem that I never authorized, they'll get a ear full soon from me because of that!..  never met anyone else with a gripe against paypal apart from the fees that really do you in for small payments. Paypal keeps e-bay going and look how big that is! You going to put a deposit on this server with some of the cash? Make it more likely they'll hang on to it and defer the "It ain't happening"? |

Sick of Bluewater? Try Sedona or Meadow Lawns instead. Meadow Lawns is a whole neighbourhood built to explore OFB. Sedona is a sub'hood you can install as a permanent alternative to Bluewater - it's an "out of this world" experience! www.moreawesomethanyou.com/cwykes |

I could order a month first, then at renewal go for the full year subscription, but this would cost an extra $300, and burn our bridges behind us. On the other hand, this server behaves like it's on fire anyway.

Just now saw this thread. Can we get a running tally?
I am financially tight until the end of the month (week starting 22nd) in any case. Januari is always the worst month.

We are currently at $1050. That buys us about 2-3 months at monthly rates. Given that this server is going down faster than the Titanic, current opinion is that I commit now and try to scrounge the rest of the funds by the end of the month.

Take the deal.
I'm sure the funds can be scraped together as we go.

Before you take a less awesome deal:
Has everyone who may send money already checked in?
Can anyone who already sent money possibly send a little more?

I want people to stop saying, "Son of a bitch". Instead we should say "Son of an ASS" because that is more accurate. Spread the word!  |

It'll take a few days for everyone who wants to be involved to sort themselves out. Not everyone comes here multiple times a day  . I do hope the titles will be gender-modified for the standard binary genders. |

bah, I didn't have much of a paypal balance, but I sent what very little I could... Figure it's the least I could do as it had been mysteriously saved from going into the hands of the money grubbers recently...

I'm in, but I have to wait on Paypal verifying me so I can transfer cash. If it becomes urgent, I'll do the credit card thing.

Who would you be getting this server and hosting from? |

Okay, I'm confused. If I'm using Paypal (drawing from funds that are just lying around the Paypal account), which address should I use?

You should use the non-credit card one  |

I can chip in next week. Right now, I'm flat broke. But, it's a worthy cause.

Considering that this is the first time since I originally saw the thread on Friday, that I've been able to get on the site, I feel the new server is necessary. Oh, please make my title the feminine equivalent please.

I got some cash for Christmas. I'll send what I can when I see what I can afford to send. I think it's a worthy enough cause, since I do so many things with the Sims (besides playing the game), and I probably never would have if it hadn't been for Pescado's, TJ's, and Crammy's mods.

Er... I'm that dumbass who sent contribution by credit card, but forgot to specify in the message who the heck I am  . My PayPal's registered email is different from that on this forum; the contribution from <somelettersandnumbers>@iperbole.bologna.it is mine. |

Are we going to have to do this every six months, or so? |
