Donations

[Mongrel]

I would like to start this thread off by thanking everyone who was so unbelievably selfless to donate money to our cause in order to bring back this, our little slice of cyberspace.

I have some news.

As you all know, the website originally went down because of our host's T1 line going down. The person who has been hosting this website for a couple years now is a very generous man by the name of Josh. It was our understanding at the time that the disconnection of the T1 line would be the end of our free hosting through him. It appears that we were wrong. Josh has since acquired a new connection and is able to host our website again for free! This is obviously fantastic news!

However, there is a matter of the people who donated money to pay for web hosting space. We did spend some of that money to pay for new hosting space...BUT, after a coversation with them, they refunded our money in full...so, no one's money has been spent as yet.

Since the money is not needed to buy webspace, I can return your donated money to you. However, I would ask that you consider one thing. Josh has hosted our domain for free for some years now without a single cent of compensation. I would like each of you who donated money to speak with me, email me, or write me a memo about whether or not you would be interested in sharing part or all of your donation with Josh instead, as a symbol of our gratitude.

There is no obligation and no pressure! You will not be judged by me or anyone else. You are totally welcome to say 'yes' or say 'no.' It is completely your right. I hope to hear from each of you soon.

In closing, I, again, want to thank everyone who was so supporting during this charity drive of sorts. There is no greater compliment to this channel, its players and its operators than your generosity this past week.

Thank you.

Thank you so much for helping to support the site, everybody. And for being generous enough to forward a big thank you to Josh!!! I can't express how much it means to me.
