| LD4all hosting fundraiser: $601.17 raised, WE MADE IT!!! |
 Posted: Mon 07 Jun, 2004 |

i know ld4all can be very slow at times, and a faster server is the solution, but that costs money...
My current hosting contract expires the end of july. After that i want to transfer to something faster. And i already have found the hosting i want.
for the pro's: ld4all will run on a Virtual Private Server with minimal 128 MHz CPU and 128 mb RAM.
for the laymen: it will be faster and have a lot more diskspace so ld4all can grow and thrive.
The costs are $400. That will give ld4all a year of hosting.
I call upon your generousity! Every gift is welcome!
please click on the support link in my sig and follow the instructions to donate thru paypal.
Alternately, if you're from the EU and your currency is the Euro, you can also transfer money (without paying a fee) directly to my bank account. You will need the following information:
IBAN: NL71PSTB0005954454 (International Bank Account Number)
BIC : PSTBNL 21 (Bank Identifyer Code)
to: P.J.M. Krul
adress: Amsterdam
i appreciate it very much! Thank you for your support!
amount currently raised: [ $ 601.17 ]
We are over $400!
Thank you so much everybody!!  
below is a list of the generous givers. If you don't want to be mentioned, please say so.
Thank you DM7  , Siiw  Liesje  , isotope777  COZ  , Silva  , Johan S  , Nadine  , Obinnah  , sno_isulli  , toadstool , ChicoRaton , Helcorax , Gerret  , puddingbunny  , Saartje , Raafje , SML  , Macrophage , Lucy  , Nanake , Mystic , Atheist and Sentient !!

I allways feel kinda ashamed when seeing posts like this.....long time member,gaining profits off visiting this site and giving nothing in return.I wish it would change one day.......but so far average wage in this stupid country is so small we all hardly pay our bills and save on food and everything basically.I hope i will be able to somehow return all i profited here and make it up.
When i can afford it,your donation link will be first on my list.
Again ,thank you Pasquale i hope i will be able to suprise you one day.

I agree with Jack... I feel so bad. Hopefully thing changes soon.
Lucky, I'm able to make a donation even though I don't have any jobs.  I wish you the best Q! Good luck!

the point is, guys, everyone can afford a few bucks.
think of all the times you waste 5 bucks on a movie or pot or whatever.
Surely this site is worth a few dollars if you use it alot. from each person, it all adds up.
PS: you should put a link to this post in the regular forums because no one ever reads the "news" forum. Im sure more will donate

I'd love to donate. I really would. The problem is I'm 13 and have no money and no job.

You have to be very careful with donation things though as it can give the wrong impression.
Though if i could i would deffinately donate a few $$

I wish that was true. I can't even afford my own internet connection, phone line or anything else right now :'( and threads like this make me feel guilty because i can't pay and i want to.

Q: the paypal links in your sig link are dead. As are the links on the paypal homepage. Or is it just me? 
I'm not registered at paypal and I don't have a credit card, but I guess it also works with bank account numbers. Right?
I'll see what I can do with my restricted abilities, as soon as the pages load again.

hi mystic, thanks
on the dutch forum is the fundraising topic also, and in there you will find my gironummer if you are able to, i'd appreciate it if you donate directly to that one instead through paypal, since paypal takes off a tiny percentage off all donated money as commission.
paypal will be online again in an hour or so if i calculate the timing zone right.

Can I use a regular credit card or do I have to open a paypal account? I know it is free. I just never trusted the hole paypal thing.

You should not feel bad. You can only do what you can. Besides, you do contribute to the forms with your posts and by being an active member which helps to make the forum enjoyable.
I am sure almost anyone can afford a dollar or two. If everyone on the forum did that it would be more than enough.

milod, paypal allows you to use a credit card and it is a secure site. (Check for the little lock at the bottom of your page.)
Q, I was more than happy to donate. This is a great site and it shows in all the improvements that you make. The least we can do is give a little.
