Avatars - are they back?

[Gritt23]

Bozza if NSc is financially screwed perhaps we should start a donation process to get it back on track, I'd be happy to pay to keep the site running.

Likewise. Lets start a "NSC Survival Fund".
Just how much in the shit is it? What are we talking, £100's, £1000's, or what?

Things are OK short-term, not least of all because Coppell finally made a decision and the board has slowed to more normal historic usage levels (ie 150 or so concurrent users most of the day as opposed to 250-300).

I'm working on a few things.

I see a 'User donation' scheme as a last resort, but if it comes to that, then you'll be the first to hear!

There are two ways to do it...

i) A fixed (but not mandatory) amount - say a tenner. Could attach certain rights to those who have, eg:

northstandchat.com email address
get to choose and change their custom title whenever they want

ii) a Paypal or similar donation scheme as you describe.

Surely 'priveliges' for those who donate is not a good idea. Wouldn't people then start acting as if they owned the place?

Don't call me names, every insult is like a dagger through my heart

 

[Bozza]

But NSC users do own the place. Witness the shambles that is the Littlest Hobo forum. Tsssk.

Sack him.

So nice to have my mate back,thought he might have been a fossil by now.
Worth a donation for the entertainment value.
Problem would be Turkey losing all the pledges or money.

Great, got my van back. Been using the bus for 2 weeks.

How about 10 p a post, that'll slow a few of these work dodgers down a bit.
