News / Sorry to Ask Again Guys...

  • iris%s's Photo
    Hey it's just recently come to my attention from my parents that I need to ask for donations yet again. I've tried my best to not turn to the site for donations since you guys are in no way obligated to do so...but I've basically run out of options. I've gotten a job, yet I still find myself in a bigger ditch then before. Some of you may remember my car accident about half a year ago...well it's just come to my attention that one of the assholes involved is suing everybody else (me included) for damages to his 'knee' (funny...he didn't mention anything wrong with his knee on the scene of the accident). This couldn't have come at a worse time for me, as I'm starting up an ungodly amount of summer classes (4 in one summer...not fun) in about 4 days, each class costing about $200 a piece. Add that to the price of books for these classes, car insurance, lawyer fees, and other random necessities (food, gas, etc.) and the very small amount of money will be needed in all these directions. As I'm sure you could tell, New Element (as important as it is to me) does find it's way relatively at the bottom of the pack considering my priorities...so anyone out there who could afford to donate a little bit to help me keep the site up, it'd be hugely appreciated. To those who do (either through Paypal or just sending by mail), I will do my best to assist you in whatever problems you may have (member titles...'special privelages', etc. (if I can think of any good ones). Just let me know what I can do to help.

    Sorry to turn to you guys again...I hate doing this, but it's basically my last option at this time.

    Why not just spend less on the hosting deal you have and host all your files on http://www.ourmedia.org/

    It's free. It's UNLIMITED BANDWIDTH. It's UNLIMITED WEBSPACE.

    The dude is fucking giving it away. All you need really is what you think the bandwidth would cost for mainly the forum viewings and page hits. Which shouldn't be much.

    to quote their friggin front page...

    "We provide free storage and free bandwidth for your videos, audio, photos, text, or software. Forever. No catches.

    Article

    And to quote Cork when he saw it (maybe one of only two that did when i posted it a month ago...)

    "But that's pretty awesome! You can host videos and stuff... hell, maybe we can back up NE onto this and free up space, or stuff like that. "

    Do it.

    If you could PM me your address, I could probably give you 10 or 15 dollars. It's not much, but it's about all I can spare right now.

    I'm broke. Sorry.

    I'm afraid I have no money, my funding has been cut by British Gymnastics (the bastards...) so I might have to give that up...
  • JKay%s's Photo
    i'm gonna try my best to get you $10 this week iris. Being married, I'm usually broke, but in this case, I'll figure out a way to make NE a worthy cause. :D

    Hey guys. I'm just bumping this up because I'm still in dire need. I only got anything from two members, Kumba and Blitz which is extremely appreciated...but I was just hoping some others could help if possible. If not, I understand.
  • JKay%s's Photo
    Hey iris, PM me your mailing address and I'll drop $10 in the mail for you today.
  • deanosrs%s's Photo
    I'll chuck some at you on paypal now.

    I was speaking to a mate the other day who's a regular poster on a similarly run forum, and they have a scheme where if you subscribe, for about $5 a year I think they do, you get privileges, such as you can change your custom member title etc. I know this has been suggested before, but apparently it's worked really well for them, it might be worth a try with NE3.

    I said that I'd donate sometime, so I finally did. It's just $10 for right now, but I'll donate more sprodically, depending on how much I get to work now that it's summer.
