Accepting website renewal donations! :) - Page 2
its only ilegal if you get caught
Hosting and domain is now covered for the next 12 months.
Any additional donations will simply go towards the following year etc.
Its that time again. Please donate some loose change our way so we can cover hosting for the next 12 months.
Thanks in advance.
We are also moving servers with this renew to put an end to these pesky sql errors.

Please donate annnything you can as every $1 counts
Big thanks to those who already donated (You know who you are 
) This includes the domain name: $16/year
And hosting, which is approximately $3-6/month
Again, thanks to you all for your support
We've created a new group for donors. Currently this will include a gold username colour and Donor badge, but may include other benefits eventually.
Before this is applied, If any donors (past and present) could check your profile to make sure "Donors" is listed as one of your groups (in the dropdown box). Also let me know if you you'd prefer to keep your white username.
Don't worry, this isn't a call for donations...
As an added benefit for those who have donated (besides the satisfaction of keeping the server alive, of course) you should now be able to attach images of a sensible size directly to posts.
Photos in write-ups should still be hosted in Flickr/Imgur, etc. (because they're better at it) but this should hopefully make it easier for those wishing to attach the occasional photo, urbex-related or otherwise, to threads.
Just click the Attachments button when creating a post/reply.

Therefore, we are now accepting donations to cover hosting for the coming year.
Our host now accepts donations on our behalf, which enables more payment options, such as PayPal, Credit Card, or even Bitcoin.
To give you an idea of how much we require, hosting costs us approximately $5USD/month. Other costs, such as domain name and TLS certificate, are still covered for another year.
Supporters get added to a group with the option of a fancy gold username.
We at UEGA appreciate your generosity, and every dollar counts!
Edit: Please be aware that donations are in US dollars..
Yeah, the dollar is terrible at the moment, but it's actually good for the economy. That said, importing car parts = a lot of swearing after converting currencies. ($12,000 Recaro seats)
Over the last week, we received a total of $76.64USD ($108ish AUD).
This covers the next year and then some. Probably a total of fifteen months or so!
To those who donated, let me know if you wish to be added to the Donor group (for the option of the gold username). I have no idea who you are unless you entered your username in the message field. Or you can remain anonymous if that's what you're into.
We're always accepting donations if anyone else wishes to do so. Money donated goes directly to our host so you can rest assured it's put to good use!
Of course it's not just the donors who make this place possible, but also those who contribute and share their content. Keep it up
Don't wanna see my investment run into the ground any time soon tho
And I'll say yes please to the gold username.
Cheers,

Your investment in UEGAssociation is guaranteed to bring you returns of continued website up-time and gold usernames.
But seriously, that's over US$90 donated since we started this year's donation drive. Now hosting is covered till around mid 2017. Absolutely superb!
And btw, donors can toggle between the username colours in the Usergroup section in the User Control Panel by changing their default group.
