Why solicit donations to help better the site, then say "People shouldn't have to spend money to make this site run, donations are optional." If people saw Brooklynzown and BkDaGawd bank and paypal statements to see the hundreds to possibly thousands of dollars that came out of their pockets contrasted with the donations received their whole outlook on it would change.
And we're not even mentioning the man hours put into making sure this site is actually being ran.
I say the people should put their money where their mouth is. You want results, get your hands out of your pockets and put some cash on the table. nikkas with the loudest complaints ain't put a red dime into the coli's paypal acct and I'm sure as soon as the site is down for maintenance for a few hours they are back on slohh with the face waiting 5min for a forum to load.
You have a better site, better admins, better servers, better everything but forget its ran by the people, not a corporation. WE have to put in work to keep the coli running otherwise we'd be on to lesser forum bcuz this went double cardboard.
That's my dog that's my dog
