Title: TigerTriple.com needs your help!
Post by: abruzzi on October 09, 2007, 05:02:38 PM
Or at least a little cash.  After a couple of months on my server, I'm seeing that general usage will exceed my bandwidth allocation.  I've decided to move the site to a different host with a higher default bandwidth, but I could use a little help covering my past bandwidth fees, and the cost of the new host.  

I don't want to ask for a lot, and I definitely don't want to make this a regular money beg-a-thon, but if the very active users gave $20, I could make the change this weekend.

If you can help, please paypal a donation to geof@xy.cx.

Thanks for the support.

Geof

Thanks for keeping the Tiger forum running. I don't mind doing my bit to help things along  :D

PS. I have used PayPal for some other internet transactions and was curious about how to send to an email account, but found that it was very easy.

A huge thanks to those that donated.  I should be able to move us to http://www.bluehost.com (http://www.bluehost.com) over the next week or so. (and pay me $97 bandwidth fee.)  Bluehost gives enough bandwidth that we shouldn't have to worry (unless we get as popular as advrider...)

You'll all notice that if you donated money to the site your posts now show "$ite $upporter" under your username. (people who mailed donations -- I haven't gotten my mail this week so I'll look for them on monday.)

If I missed anyone, let me know, it is not an intentional slight.

The financial crunch is over, so there is no pressing obligation for donations.  That said, they are still welcome and appreciated.  As above you may paypal me at geof@xy.cx, or if you prefer send cash or check to:

Geof Abruzzi
PO Box 305
Mesilla, NM 88046

Either way, please include your username, either in the envelope or in the paypal comments section.  This will help me determine who to give credit to.  I had a couple donations a while back that took quite a bit of sleuthing to figure out who they came from.

thanks,

Geof

Do not see any reply and it seems like a good time to express my appreciation in a tangible (and fungible) way.

I get at least as much help from this site as from any manual.

Abuzzi, if this paypal account is still active and the right place to send some cash to keep the site up let me know.

thanks,


ack

Paypal account is still active.  Since your real name and tigertriple username are different, if you send a donation either by paypal, mail or other, please let me know your username to proper credit can be given.

thanks,

For the hours of fun and banter.  

The technical help,  

The fortune saved in servicing costs,

The things people here can fix that the dealership can't,

The cool photo's from places I'll probably never visit,  

The inspiration to ride further....  

Thanks

Donation donated.

Are donations still being accepted?  This thread has had no activity for the past eight months, and I can't believe there have been no donations made during that time (dig deep). Do I need to go somewhere else on the site in order to donate?

Thanks
