tb0111 Posted October 20, 2004 Share Posted October 20, 2004 Please post any comments here... I will also keep a running tally of funds received. as of 10-20-04 1830 PST $104.09 donated Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tb0111 Posted October 20, 2004 Author Share Posted October 20, 2004 From jabbajabbadoo I'm totally cool with chipping in to make the payments and to help offset the money you have spent but why does someone have to 'take over' the payments? Based on your $90 over the last 6 months, the hosting is $15 a month. I'm sure we could all come up with $270 to cover your expenses and pay for the site for the next year. We have 93 registered users; that's an average of $3 a person. I think Josh (your current webmaster) may want to switch host. 15.00 a month for what we are getting is kinda high. And the main reason is, I have to many things on my plate (Credit Card) to keep this up. Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SethB6025 Posted October 20, 2004 Share Posted October 20, 2004 We have 77 users, how about yearly "dues" from members? that's only 2.34 a year, per person. And the more members, the less expensive it would be. Okay, with that said I need to go set up a paypal account. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tk432 Posted October 20, 2004 Share Posted October 20, 2004 i currenty host www.darthlarsen.com ( my site ) at www.ace-host.net to get the low rate we have to pay for a whole year in advance.. but it about 60 bucks. I propose we pay back chris then switch host, asap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tb0111 Posted October 20, 2004 Author Share Posted October 20, 2004 Agreed! I move all my sites off this host due to crappy support and cost! Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tk432 Posted October 20, 2004 Share Posted October 20, 2004 chris if we get to 60 dollars tell me and we can switch to the host i use. Then we can keep the paypal icon up and get you payed back. Sound good? (any one heard from Joe M.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dust_0ff Posted October 20, 2004 Share Posted October 20, 2004 how big is all the stuff on the site? if so my host is 16 dollar one time fee, that i would be more than happy to pay for you guys, its 350mb of space....but i dont know how big all the site and forums are.....so if you could answer that one question ill set it all up!

bamatrooper Posted October 20, 2004 Share Posted October 20, 2004 We need to use patch and shirt funds for this.... That is what some garrisons usually do, like add 1.00 to the patches and shirts.... that should help with keeping up with the fees...Dues aren'ta good idea as they can't be 'enforced'.. we can keep up with volunteer funds or SWAG profits as mentioned..... I'm all for adding it to my CC now if you wish to stay here Josh...no problem. I've emailed Chris about this once but, if Josh doesn't want to just add it to his site already.. We can work out some kind of fee sharing with him if thats the deal. Josh give me a shout today/night... -Joey TD-152 MPED-DL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tk432 Posted October 20, 2004 Share Posted October 20, 2004 i have way to much stuff on my domain.. But for 60 dollars we get sandtrooper.net a complete hosting package of its own. if you want to set it up, go to www.ace-host.net and set up a hosting with the special plan and pay for a full year. and we get the DNS stuff changed on the domains. (they do payments but you save ALOT of you pay for the full year). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tb0111 Posted October 21, 2004 Author Share Posted October 21, 2004 With Calikids donation, you have reached the 90.00 mark! Thank you guys for stepping up to the plate and taking care of this! Now, I can redirect the paypal donation to who ever is going to take over the site. Someone said that 60.00 would take you a full year of hosting. So you guys let me know and I get it set up for ya.
