Hey folks!
Just a friendly reminder to help contribute (if possible!) to the site's expenses.
Just click on the link below to head to the main site header, then click the yellow "Make a Donation" button.
Remember, donate what you can, $5 per member would be FANTASTIC, but even $1 would great!

If its worth posting, its worth posting twice.
amreboot: (2012-07-03 15:54:47)
Yup, I want to get as much attention to this as possible.
Rick88ss: (2012-07-04 00:23:41)

I donated half my beer money for the week. If it weren't for this site and the people here my Shiro would have never been rescued or fixed.

michaelp: (2012-07-04 16:28:07)

Not cocky enough to care about my tag being changed to donating member.
Though I wouldn't mind it saying "86 Whore" :nanan?re
amreboot: (2012-07-04 23:56:02)
I have donated as well.
I am planning on donating $ every month.
I am willing to sacrifice one 6 pack a month, haha.
ozzyrulez: (2012-07-06 17:09:05)
Is there a way to do like auto donate? :lol: Like set paypal to automatically pay 10 bucks a month or something? I forget to donate.
amreboot: (2012-07-06 21:02:49)
I believe within PayPal's website there is a way to set this up.
I am going to investigate and do the same thing.
z31p's paypal is
z31parts@gmail.com
DO NOT send PayPal payments to z31performance@gmail.com

Let me know if you figure it out because I can't find it. It used be called subscriptions or something like that. Its been a while since I've done it.

Man the site being offline this morning got me [archived image: redface.png]uin
Then it came back on and I was like 8)
So now that I am reminded how important the site is I donated today :-D
ozzyrulez: (2012-08-03 05:39:04)
I remembered to donate again yesterday. Hopefully I'll remember next month lol
Jason84NA2T: (2012-08-08 02:45:13)
Wow, thanks for the recent donations guys. We raised $179.53 in the past two weeks alone!
FYI: We will be moving the forum to a less expensive server at some point (for a substantial reduction in the monthly hosting/managing bill) in the near-ish future.
BLOZ UP: (2012-08-08 12:59:19)
What are the site's stats? Monthly visitors and whatnot?
Jason84NA2T: (2012-08-14 14:22:43)
We have about 500 active users
between 30gb and 60gb per month bandwidth
The issue is not bandwidth or really number of users… what is keeping us on a dedicated server is primarily the size of the database. Queries take more processor time on a large DB, so it can't run on a shared server.

Are you renting the server or is it a colo?
G-E: (2012-08-16 05:07:46)
try these guys? http://www.000webhost.com/ or http://canaca.com
michaelp: (2012-08-16 05:15:27)
Not dedicated servers, it'd be slow as shit.

Will you stop trolling mike?

Really, if everyone here ACTUALLY donated a buck a month, we would be fine, for two months at a time.
michaelp: (2012-08-17 01:30:00)
I was talking about 000, didn't even look at that one. lol

How can we donate now?
