Money

[senjuro]

Instead of creating several threads, why not just pin a thread and update it when you need money?
It seems plenty more reasonable, and far more organized. Also, you can log what dates you began to get behind on money which, believe it or not, can be very helpful.

You just proved the point that sticky threads do not garner any attention. The thread "Financial Situation Critical" has been at the top of this board since the middle of November. If the situation were no longer critical, I would have removed that topic ages ago. In short, there IS a thread pinned here, and the site will always need money. As it stands, the financial situation is still dire.

Paypal is plenty organized enough for me to keep track of when I've paid and whom I've received from. We are up to date on payments as far as April. I pay as close to the first of the month as I can, which means that, as of today, we are twelve days late.

The state of the site has nothing to do with organization; it has to do with the fact that my financial situation changed about 18 months ago and I couldn't afford to foot the bill for the site by myself anymore, especially after it doubled. Since I stepped back from personally funding the site, nobody else seems willing to contribute on a consistent basis. And, given the amount of bullshit I put up with here and the fact that I get no joy out of this forum, I'm not going to be convinced to put any more money toward it. And I mean it this time.

I have no problem continuing to oversee the financial administration of the site, or helping LordPatamon with whatever site administration needs doing, but in terms of contributing money to this site, I'm long done with that.

Anyway, snarky insinuations about my organizational skills aside, the donation information has been exactly the same since October 2005: send donations via Payal to digiartistsdomain@hotmail.com.

Finally, I would appreciate if people would keep their financial well-wishes to themselves about when they intend to donate. If you can donate, then post. If you cannot donate, do not post. If you have suggestions about how to keep the site going with revenue outside of donation, then post. If you do not have any good ideas and you're just posting because you're bored, then fuck off and do not post.

And yes, Ryan, you clod, that IS directed at you.
