With only $150 in the paypal account, if I were to transfer the $90 to the bank to cover the fees for the next six months, that leaves us with $60 in the paypal account. Our bill is due June 3, 2014 of around $220, plus the survival servers for Dayz, plus the website fees all for a total amount needed of around $400.
We have not been getting that here of late. And that is not entirely abnormal either, but, when we had a much larger community, we could absorb some lean months. These days, we are not in a position to do that. Art of War closing, shortly after they took their $190 fee, was kinda a bum deal and we lost that money. But, that brought our balance down to what it is, and then having to get another box and all. So, here is the deal..
I cannot let the bank account go into default. It has my name on it, and I cannot allow a gaming endeavor to tarnish my otherwise very good credit. So before anything else gets paid, money has to go there. After that, if our gaming fund dries up, it dries up. Currently, our gaming on one box is the 1942 game and day of defeat. We got this box after AoW closed up. We will probably be moving teamspeak to that box, as well as possibly running our own Dayz server on that box should we find a good remote admin tool to do so. But, if they ask for their money and we do not have it, I am sure they will send us a nice note saying you must have overlooked this month's payment. And when that happens, Moon goes bye-bye. I do not have the money to foot the entire bill. Most you you do not have the money to foot the entire bill. So, if we all know the situation, and chose not to spend any money at all on this community, I wish all of you a fond farewell and good luck in your gaming futures.
So, if you got it, consider sending some our way. Currently, we have mint and HeavyGunz who answered the call. I have not, and will correct that shortly, as my cc has expired on my paypal account and haven't gotten off my lazy ass to get it changed. I can't seem to find that damn card to see what the new expiration date is..which is a WHOLE nuther problem..
I have told Lin that as I have been playing Dayz recently..I will cover that. The other game I play, Startrek online doesn't cost us anything to play, so that would work for the Moongamers fleet. Lin would cover the web for forum activities. Not sure what would happen to teamspeak. Day of Defeat, 1942 and anything else would fall by the wayside. And that is where we are friends.
Hate to be bringing this to you guys, but, it seems that people forget that although we are not pay for play, this shit ain't free either. So, there is the current monies situation here at Moongamers..what do you all say..
Oh, and a PS, I really don't want this to be a "I would send it if I could but, I can't because..." If you can't, you can't. There are several that I don't want to see anything from because I know your situation. But, there are others that have it, but, just don't send it..
So, with that in mind, can ya help a brother out?

This is the lowest balance that MoonGamers has EVER had. That includes our start-up month, when we didn't know where the next month would come from, so folks...this is serious crap. I will once again be spending my weekend consolidating stuff and dropping our costs to around $300 per month but that will be the bare minimum to run this place. NOBODY makes a salary, or makes any kind of money from the donations. They go to pay for the games we play. We remain one of the last 1942 servers left. We have spent many weekends lately consolidating our resources, looking for deals, and trying our best to drop our costs without dropping your games.
Please consider making a pledge to send in a little each month. We can keep this place going...but only with your help.

Even though i usually tag it as a DoD donation, you all can use it how ever you want, of course.

Tweek, given our current state of affairs, we have done away with any specific category of game. It was felt that by having the donations set that way, when say, Day of Defeat was "paid for" people would no longer send in anything after that as there was no need. I think folks forget we have website renewals, bank stuff, teamspeak stuff etc. that cost money but, didn't have a specific category for donations.
I see. I was wondering where the game contribute button was. That is a better idea tho. You guys do a great job.
