I personally like the idea of a paypal donation button where those that feel comfortable to do so can donate to help keep the site going .

So it sounds to me like those of us that are here regularly are all willing to contribute to help keep the site going.

As @Spike188 said, without Eugen doing the IT work we would be lost.

I don’t know if it’s necessary to say but I’ll throw it out there, keep in mind going forward we may need fundraisers. I just don’t want anyone to feel bad or upset when they either have to solicit for funds or if they can’t contribute as much as they would like.

I feel they same way about this place as you guys do, and besides we can’t leave now, we haven’t got to see the next step in @Eugen adventure yet! :D

If I’m not reading the room correctly you guys please speak up, but it certainly seems to me we have a consensus.

Haha, @JSinMO, I'll make an effort to return to more action here. I've been wanting to do that.

So, the best match I found so far for site hosting is from this company named ionos. The price is in CAD. It would be a big upgrade for us. We're running right now on one core, 1GB of RAM, and 150GB of disk space. I'll look for another day or so but if any of you know a better deal please lmk.

Hi all,
I haven't been able to transfer the site to the upgraded hosting because of severe lack of time. Meanwhile I've also been paying the current hosting myself but it's getting harder and harder as I haven't been employed in over a year. The current invoice is for 47.77 Canadian dollars, which is about 35 USD and covers the site for three months. Any little help would be appreciated guys. :blush:

Happy to help cover the next payment due, how can we make this work financially? Feel free to PM if you would like to take this conversation off the board, or leave it here it the information would be beneficial to others.
