Donation Status

Just curious, what sort of hardware is all of this running on? I *might* have a couple of servers lying around doing nothing if that would be helpful.

[Rogean]

While we apreciate the offers for donated hardware, we will be purchasing the hardware so we can insure that there will be no problems with it. I might have considered it if the server was close to my house, but it's 5 hours away (and soon to be 12 hours away).

Been sending $15 a month since November....I'm renewing my contract and the money will keep rollin in! [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I just sent a $100 donation, hope it helps

How are you doing with donations for the server move? is there a plan/time frame that this might happen? Do you need more donations in order to make it happen sooner.

[Amareck]

As per flednat's post! A few of us are very keen to see the hardware upgrade come in.

If its a dollar issue, I'd respectfully suggest that publishing a "required dollar amount to ugprade" may motivate/drive people to hit the target; especially if its only a smallish number that can be hit quickly. Certainly, I'd be happy to toss in a lump of coin for such a worthy undertaking [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

At any rate, many thanks for the server - its amazing, in every way. And thanks for the (sometimes thankless) work involved in making it happen.

Donated once, will do again once I straighten out my income taxes...LoL.

An update:

Just ordered our new server today. We were still $1500 short, so I'm making the difference up with my own money, as once things are set up and we're only paying the monthly data center fee, I'm hoping I can make most of that back over time.

Those of you who say donations go to our pocket.. as you can see it's quite the opposite :P

Server should take hopefully about a week to get here but I'll get a real eta later today, then depending when its delivered another 3 business days or so to get it into the data center. I might drive it there my self (14 hour one-way drive), but I'll decide that later.

Thanks for the donations everyone.

Awesome Rogean, that's great news. I knew you loved us all along.

Also, to anyone still bitching about customer service or the Dev team, read this again a few times:
