Donations...

Hi

I am planning on donating to FIATforum and I would like to know whatthe money does and has gone toward? Rather than asking a mod this, I have made it public as i'm sure it probably crosses other peoples minds on here too?

Cheers,

Check similar threads at bottom surfin_fella one.

yes it has and this has already been announced

sorry to be a pain in the rectum, but it must be because i'm tired. Where? lol

SOrry maybe you're right maybe the thread was deleted.

why? seems like a valid question to me?
Like many people, if I donate I would like to know what my contribution is going to do and help so I can at least know what is happening to the money I offer and that I can get something out of it because of that.

It came down to the fact that Ben is putting in thousands more than is coming out, put the thread was a bit argumentitive.

I would still like to know what the donations go toward though...

and who's fault was that?!lol

Server, software, software updates (i.e. gallery, classifieds), bandwith.

mwlargee n lowtechguy?

basically it comes down to the forum costs more to run than we get donations so its costing ben money

What are the costings of these sorts of things then?

it goes toward sever cost that is huge now we on an all singing all dancing server with another band width to send your granny on holiday to austrailer(sp) atm the fee from adds n donations are about £700 a year short, iirc to what ben pays out a year

so a roundabout figure per annum would be...

I just want to donate accordingly and sensibly.
