Done, money well spent. :-)

Sorry, I'm not planning on donating a second time around. This site has become a lot less interesting to me personally over the last couple of months.

I donated. I visit two blogs almost daily. Whiteblaze & one about investing & personal finance - http://www.bogleheads.org/forum/index.php. Obviously, I don't visit either when I'm hiking.
Donation periods simply expire, there is absolutely no automatic subscription. If you donate at the same level, your subscription period is extended a year beyond the original expiration. If you move up a level, it does not extend, the software does not handle the change and simply gives a year. If you have moved up a donation level, shoot me a PM or ATTroll a PM and we can extend your new level for the time left on your previous one.

No it was moved here. Up, running, and apparently talking about toast and jelly. Sorry we are not going to keep going round and round about the move.

Just donated. This site has been SO helpful! My male hiking buddies are now oooing and ahhhhing over my gear choices and camping tricks.
Well, I may never actually do a thru, but I've done day hikes on the AT, and before I ever did that, I learned so very, VERY much here that I was inspired to think about a thru, and got to be a gear-head (might be selling some of that!). So I'm going to send a check (I don't trust paypal - shortly after I signed up there, my cc information was stolen, so a check it is!)
I've decided to pay for what I've already received for free: information from the public that came about because atroll et al built this site.
Oh, and I think the "thermometer" idea is important. I mean really atroll, gotta show us what you want and how we're doin'! I'm a NPR fan and have donated there and knowing how it's going is good.
Maybe you can set up something separate even... one for regular donations and one for the goal of a new server.
Haven't learned much on here, but I've definitely gotten my $25 worth of laughs.

Lurkerville? Way to point the finger at somebody, JB.For all you fine folks in Lurkerville- join up- yes we bite, but if you don't join you can't bite back- and what's the fun in that. Nobody likes to be dinner.
So, while they wouldn't bug you to pony up your dough- I got no shame. Pay up!
Thanks to all for making this a great site- say thankya back by helping to keep it running.

Alrighty then! Made my donation via paypal.
Now I gotta go hunt for the perfect avatar...
Bumping the thread... donated
Done. Thanks for keeping this valuable resource alive. I have learned a lot and even laughed a little on this site. Thanks to all who contribute by posting, moderating, and maintaining.
See you on the trail.
Bumping the thread again, donating now, and adding a little sunshine HikerMom style.
Normally, I can't play with the emoticons b/c I login from my WB ipad app. Maybe enough donations will get a server and an app upgrade.
