2017 REFRESH--....Donations to help maintain this forum

Post by Monkey Man »

I don't meant to be a pain in the arse but I just wanted to remind anyone who likes this forum and wants to help out there is a Paypal donation on G741's home page, it is NOT compulsory to do so but the extra few dollars makes things a bit easier for Robi to maintain this forum.
Also, I may need to appoint another moderator to help out, if you're familiar with forums and their operation interested please PM Me...Both Position filled, I'll make an announcement soon...

Tony;
I saw your nudging post and wanted to add a comment, It night be useful to publish a member donation list so all can see who has helped, several years ago I made a donation and never received any reply and wondered what happened.

That's an excellent idea Carter, I had an idea he did thank you in a post way back at the start of the "new" forum but a list indeed would be a good thing. I have not heard from Robi in quite some time, I wonder if he went back over for another tour of duty??

This is a great forum. I could not have done half of what I have done to my truck without the people and resources that the forum and it's great members provide. Payment sent !

Hi MM,

Thanks for the nudge. Seriously. I was oblivious, as usual. Payment sent.
If it wasn't for this site I'd feel a bit lost regarding my M. I know Steel Soldiers is popular, but when I go there it's a bit overwhelming....and their M37 posts, while there, aren't in the same league as this site. Obviously, that's just my opinion, so treat it as such.
But tell Robi "thanks" for me. And nudge as often as you feel is necessary!!

thanks,
bob

I didn't intend to make anyone feel they had to make a donation, just if you like what you get then grease the wheels of the machine a bit, I am grateful to all on here for contributing all the ideas, advice and informatio regarding M37's and MV's in general. I spend up to an hour a day (sometimes more) on here trying to make things tickety boo, I hate spammers and will continue to try and make this site as spam free as possible and it is my privelege to do so and to have you all as friends...

I appreciate all the hard work you do to keep the site running nicely. I like the attitudes on this site much better. Unfortunately (and it baffles me) one or two on the other site seem to have an edgy attitude to "outsiders". Maybe they are just over zealous guardians of the site but because of it I post less there than here. Keep up the good work.

So, Monkey Man, if I make a donation, will you then posts pics of your truck? :P

More than one or two; you know, "inside, outside, in my ladies chamber...." :D

MM,

Donation made, this site has been a great help to me on my project.

I never even looked at the home page to see the donation thru paypal link. Maybe if another donation icon was at the bottom of the Board index page it would get more exposure.

MM....I have to agree with Bert......I didn't see the Paypal link either. So making that more visible won't hurt, but you know how people are......when it comes to much needed donations most just figure "the other guy will do it" and pass it off. Meaning a soft kick in the ass never hurts from time to time.
Thanks for reminding us!!

regards,
bob

Thanks ED, I am sure Robi appreciates the support, I did get in contact with him, he's not lost interested in the site but 50Hrs a week at the regular job and doing other things to boot he's just plum out of spare time but I am sure he'll reappear at some stage soon :wink:

Thanks MM. Just sent my "donation" via PayPal.
Big Electric and g741 have saved my bacon many times over the years.
Thanks to you and Robi.
