    Maybe Rashy is rubbing off on me but...

    I looked at the classifieds and Ryan is selling his 51 for financial reasons. There are 4500+ members on this board who have easily gotten $5 outa this place. I know not every one will put in something, but if we could get even 1/4 of that number to pitch in at least $5 we are looking at over $5000.
    I can't imagine what it must cost to keep this place going, but if we could at least get $5 to help Ryan out I'm sure we would be paid back 10 fold with what he has done with this board.
    Damn near ANY other board ASKS for money. We should kick back some where we can. Who's in?
     
  2. Ok, I'm in. I'll paypal Ryan $5.00.

    OCP, Good idea, I've always thought that a few bucks a year for each member would be a good idea. Ryan isn't one to ask so if we take it upon ourselves to make a payment for the rent I think it would be appreciated.
    Got any ideas on how to collect it? I'm thinking if someone would step up and offer to do the collecting that would be cool. That way there would be just one payment to Ryan. Any other ideas?

  4. ok being the newbie probally kills me here - this is an outstanding forum and I would pay an annual fee. Know a lot of people may not want to or could afford to but I will sent what I think is fair too.

    Collecting will be easy... You can just write a $5 check and send it to Ryan. Or paypal it to him.
    Just put your name and how much you want to donate here, then send it along!

    $20 is nothing... all the invaluable shit talking ive learned [​IMG] j/k

    this place is worth every penny...

    im down for the 20 spot

    i think it would be a real good idea to specify what the check is FOR... or else he may chalk it up to board maintenance.

    example:
    FOR: TO KEEP THE CHEVY

    howz'at sound?

    Ryan has been PMd, but I think we should just get him the money anyway.
    I don't have much after the auction, but I'll put in $10 TO KEEP THE CHEVY.

    Put the amount donated so we can keep a rolling tally.
