Well I hope you guys arent in dire need right now. Just let us know what is happening from time to time. I hope this initial campaign did well. I tried here earlier to rally some of the esteemed members of MM to contribute. I hope it went ok with you folks.

FORZA MILANMANIA!

It's actually got to be more than an initial campaign, Kui and everyone else! We can't repeatedly have to go begging, that's just not the way to operate, not knowing from month to month if the server bill is covered!

Hat's off to those of you who have stepped forward, Rez has PMed you the needed info. (including one "unsung hero")(i just had to say that) But once again, I'll be the broken record and say we need REGULAR comtributors so we can split the costs up so that all those contributing are pitching in the least amount possible. So far...a few have said they can/will contribute on a regular basis. We need 10-15 people we can count on...or else a pool of 20 or 30 so we can rotate the contributions, as in so many do this 3 or 4 months, then so many other do the next 3 or 4 and so on.

If we get 20 people contributing we are talking $7.75 a month for each person. Surely you can give up a McDonalds and a Latte a month?

Reza · 21-09-2005, 12:27

Just don't ask me to give up any pepsi or pizza

Debs · 21-09-2005, 12:37

Hey, come on, Rez, I gave up a new computer this summer.....

Willdie · 24-09-2005, 01:53

Still waiting for info on where to send my contribution seeing as how we don't have a means to get a paypal account here.

A friend of mine who owns a forum, www.offsideref.com recommended this host for us:

click on "Tell me more" for more bandwidth, it's MUCH cheaper.

Coooooooooooooooool

Dave · 09-10-2005, 06:14

Yeah actually a good idea!!!

razoruk · 09-10-2005, 09:58

Yeah except that users are already complaining of slow access to the site.

Moving to a lesser host on a shared server than this will cause these issues to increase tenfold.

Tobinho · 10-10-2005, 02:49

well you could try out offsideref.com to see. It's pretty fast.

Debs · 10-10-2005, 07:38

The slow access is the server's problem, if they've been hit by a worm! Needs to be taken of straight away tho!

Just an update on a couple things....

For those who have spoken to Rezag about wiring funds, he's been investigating that option and it sounds cost-prohibitive all the way around! Not only would he have to pay a large fee to get the funds, but the person sending has a large fee to pay. It really sounds to me like PayPal or chasier's cheques are the way to go. I also suggested to Rez and Andrew that we could try BidPay, but I just went there and it seems set up only to pay for eBay auctions. I'm going to look at Westernunion.com, which used to be associated with BidPay and only charged a nominal fee.
