Fri Jan 20, 2006 9:25 am Post subject: Buck Privates' Monthly Donations |
 
|
Due to my recent upgrade to mod, I'm now putting this in TJoe's capable hands.
In this thread J2 started the idea of extending the Buck Privates monthly $1 donation to a once-in-a-year donation of $12. Due to Paypal overhead, less frequent and bigger donations gives more to SST in the long run than frequent small donations.
I've talked with J2 and agreed that I will take over this venture and continue administrating it. So far we've got 8 members, and we still need 4 more.
I'll try to get some sort of automatic reminders up and running, so I'll need those who join's e-mail addresses in a PM. That way you'll get a reminder the first of your month so you wont forget 
Don't hesitate! Join the Buck Privates today!
Current members and month for $12 donation (This list will be updated):
Jan: j2brown, Bonzo
Feb: Chandler
Mar: vader_76
Apr: Storyteller
May: don0don, weaponlordzero
Jun: Asriana, Peaches & GenericDragon
Jul: Trinity3777
Aug: Goblinmoon
Sep: sunshinegirl, Morglum
Oct: JJ2005
Nov: zirael
Dec: bentoons, PMF

Chandler, glad you jump started this again. I can donate in Nov.
I figure, if I'm gonna contribute anyways, might as well keep up SST spirit! |

Just curious why you picked November instead of the next open month?
Thanks for everybody for stepping up to help out.

Nov. is my bday month, easier to remember and I usually have extra funds then. Plus, this way people can see the wide open spaces! |

The original idea was to spread it out so we only had to donate once a year but not deprive SST of any of our donations. I think that TJ is taking over for the buck privates now that Chandler is a mod. If not, whoever takes over will get you guys into the rotation, I'm sure.

I've now done my first donation as a member of the Buck Pirates. I see we still need a couple of members to have the entire year filled up. Come on people; Make us proud
Moved topic to General forum since this is no longer only an Idea
