G'day Fellas.
I know it's hard in these financially difficult times but please spare a few beer tickets to keep the best forum on the planet going and add free.
I have no idea how much it costs to run and I hope my yearly US $20 helps. We have about 1300 members, just $1 each should cover it.
I'll try to remember to "bump" this thread every month or so.
Cheers

^^^ Thanks for trying  *smile*

Strange, it's not a transfer to Syria or a Califate! Conatct Paypal and ask why a normal country like Norway (and a normal recipient) not in their allowed NZ list? Works fine otherwise, f.ex. just received a donation from Australia.

i got the same thing about donations not allow from NZ. tho i think i've managed before and paypal loves to take my money for other things. do post when fixed

Edit: also tried via a vpn to aus, but no luck as requires a country address for the card to validate. I assume its a setting in your paypal account Erling

Very happy to help. In a world of utter madness, this forum is an enclave of decency, generosity, and good humour. Long may it continue.

 ^^^ Thanks for that CheeserBeezer !

The Paypal link on the donation page is changed\updated. Everything should maybe work now ? (refering to some problems from NZ). We'll see on next NZ donation attempt. If still not ok, please send a PM and I'll arrange for an alternative until fixed. Fingers crossed.

And thanks to those who already contributed, big help + enticement to keep the forum going and in good shape.

btw, the forum was launched in March 2006, around 25 members around May\June.

 ^^^ Thanks for testing. So NZ not allowed to donate but allowed to do payments\transfers to same account (tested and working). Strange.

If anyone gets the PP donation error, please send a PM to get info about doing a transfer.
