Donations

[JustManuals]

You people should be ashamed of yourselves. Here it is the 17th of the month and there is only $28.93 in monthly donations and almost half of that is my donation. This forum is a valuable resource for everyone who uses it and forking over a few bucks a month to help pay for the monthly maintenance and upkeep shouldn't be a hardship on anybody (if it is you've got bigger problems) So come on folks, fork out a few bucks a month to keep the site up, cause if it goes away, everybody loses !

Re: Donations

Pardon if this sounds rude, but aren't donations meant to be a gracious gift of money, and not a shaming scheme? I wouldn't want to be in a guilt trip just because I didn't donate.

For someone who just joined our community, spend some time here, then make an assumption wheather you might feel a guilt trip or not.

When I have a good month, I contribute.
When I can just cover making a livingI contribute knowledge or just a laugh.

I read this clown's past posts and it looks like he got the help he needed, now he thinks I'm rude for bring up donations. He has no idea what it costs to run and maintain a site like this or any other site. he is the RUDE one. What a putz!

I donate at the first of the month on the hopes it's going to be a good month. It's called karma.

Not karma, just logic.

True, donation should be a gracious gift. However, there's nothing wrong in reminding us the site accepts donations - nobody's pointing a gun at you, you're the one who's going to ponder whether it is worth donating or not.

As for me, the help I received far outweights the help I've ever given - and, since I had some spare change in Paypal, I donated it.

I'm in Vegas and just paid $21 for a plain old orange juice. Go talk to the people at the Rio for it.

Re: Donations

This site is an invaluable tool for me. For the cost of a paper feed roller or even a cleaning blade/ month. There's no better 'bang for the buck' !

Re: Donations

Don't get me wrong. This is a very good resource for copier repair. And if I have any $$ left over, I may donate when I can.

Justmanuals.com, why call me a clown? Your avatar resembles a clown even more.

Damn, Dewster, take a break and pay attention. If it weren't for Paul and others, this site may not exist. BTW-his avatar is Alfred E Newman as the "Joker", not exactly a "clown".

I'm also running a website/community and don't ask for money, even don't embed ads. It's my hobby I do for fun and most hobbies are more or less pricey. Besides that I find the monthly bill way too expensive/oversized for this single website. I see that this forum is fairly good frequented and too heavy for cheap shared hosting but I'm shure you'll get a fitting and reliable dedicated hosting package for way below <100USD/month these days.
