Time to Pass the Hat

Kevy Baby · 11-20-2008, 09:40 PM

A little curiosity and checking points out that we have not a non-fund raising thread in a while. Do y'all realize that we are approaching the LoT's 4th birthday?

I don't know about you, but the LoT is so much more than just another message board. It is a place where I can hang my hat and visit with friends. Y'all aren't just a bunch of anonymous posters: you are all my friends. Even if I haven't met you IRL, I still feel a close bond to each and every one of you (well, except Moonliner: I just tolerate him for the sake of peace, love and harmony).

So that we may all continue to enjoy our happy little slice of the internet, won't you take a minute to scroll to the bottom of this (and every other) page and click the "Click to Pay" button? It doesn't cost a lot to maintain this joint, but I certainly think that the least we can do is help out the hep cats who run this joint by throwing a couple of bones their way. Go ahead and do it now and you'll get these warm fuzzy feelings. And you won't need to take penicillin for it!

Who knows: they may even feel inclined to update that donation page:

Also looks like you need to clean up the closing page as well:

It also lists LoT with the xenarchy.com address.

Okay, that' bizarre. When I copied the text above, it showed the Xenarchy URL. WTF?

We're such money-grubbing whores that we haven't looked at our donation page since 4 years ago.

I think we set up a global rule on the board to replace any instances of xenarchy.com with loungeoftomorrow.com. Sometimes we're smart.

Stoat & I couldn't resist - after all, LoT's our lifeline to the USA. How else would we learn of Aerosol Cheese & other important American issues ?

Our Cheese is Happy.

...BTW: the exchange rate SUX at the moment. I hope it gets better come March.....

Bump

Judging by the dearth of posts in this thread, I am concerned that there hasn't been much action on this. Maybe I wasn't clear.

The LoT is not terribly expensive to run, but there are costs involved. I think it is fair if those of us users who aren't Mods/Admins chip in a little to cover the cost. If everyone chipped in $5 or $10, I am sure that would cover it. Just click the Amazon Honor System link at the bottom of the page, and throw the powers that be a bone.

Your cheese will be happy.

Am I the only one who gets this message at the top of the Amazon page?
