Donations desperately needed

We are in dire straits.

 

We have $105 in Paypal. The monthly server and website bills are payable in a week and we don't have nearly enough to make it this month.

 

Our monthly bill is $364; the monthly server bill is $286, and the monthly web bill is $78. That means we have to raise $364 every month in order to survive. There is no pretty way to put this. If we don't raise the funds in a week, we will be closing our doors. There is no one person who can afford this; we have survived by the generosity of our player base. The bottom line is, we need a dedicated group of sponsors to share the cost every month, or this call will go out every month.

 

13 players @ $30/month would keep us afloat. We have trimmed much over the years but at this point, this is the bottom line to keeping the server and community going. I am happy to pledge $30 per month myself, so now we only need 12 people to pledge the rest.

 

If you love the games we provide, please be one of those twelve people and help us keep it going.

 

If not, it's been a lovely run and we thank everyone who has been part of our gaming family.

 

Thank you.

 

edit:

for those who prefer to mail something in, here is the address:

Make checks payable to Lin Allen

4676 Commercial St SE PMB 357

Salem OR  97302

 

Thank you!

This is the first post that I have made in a couple years, but this community has been around for decades (now I feel old) and I would hate to see it go now. Conversely if you cannot donate 30 dollars a month but can donate 20 dollars, 10 dollars, or even 5 dollars...it all helps. Conversely, if 40 people pledge 10 dollars a month the bills are covered.

 

I know it's hard for some because BF1942 is such a old game, but ask yourself...why is it after all these years we continue to play the game with the same people on the same server? Answer is simple, the game is fun and its fun because of the people who contribute to it. 

 

I made my donation without hesitant and I did it for my love of the community. If you play more frequently than me and have been playing here for the last couple years.... I challenge you and everyone else to do the same. Donate what you can and help support the community that has provided you with entertainment for the majority of this century.

Crikey!

 

As of this moment, Paypal now has $797.42. That will easily carry us through to the new year!

 

You guys rock so much, words fail me. I will keep updating this post every month with the current balance, so we can all keep an eye on the financial health of MoonGamers. I usually try to catch the ancillary costs these days like domain updates, and once in a while software updates, so for the most part the only costs coming out of Paypal are server and web costs.

 

Thank you, thank you, thank you!
