For those of you that don't venture out of here much, the server is pushed to the max and they have maxed their bandwidth for the first time since the Pirate BB started.

There is a sticky at the top of the page explaining it all.

Just one more pitch for the Red Star......

Please donate! I have saved THOUSANDS of dollars from the knowledge I have gleaned from this list not to mention the countless friends I have met here as well.

Donate $20 for a years use and let's make sure this does not happen again!

you're absolutely right nolen!

anybody on this board can afford $20, and don't even tell me you can't!!!!!!!!! cause then you should find another way to occupy your time.

word to that. guess to-days my red star day :)

Matt

Edit: I;m a dumbass, i followed the link and it doesnt give lance's email to send the paypal too... its lance@pirate4x4.com RIGHT? dont wanna be sending out money that goes nowhere :D

Amen to that brother Nolen...

I say ditch chit-chat for a day or 2.. :D

Anyone know the address to send a money order to? (some of us poor college students don't want the temptation of credit cards)

Hey Man,

Sign up for PayPal. It is good to have, especially if you don't use Credit Cards. There is no fee to send money this way, just a fee if you use it to sell things. It is a managable fee though and I believe you will find it nice to be a member.

well how about those of us who dont have a checking account (required for paypal)???

i m going to send a mo.

Start building credit now! Find a bank that has free checking accounts and stash some $$ in it.

You will be happy later.

what about us 16 year olds, without the possibility of credit cards and checking accounts? haha

I'd love to know what they mean by "out of bandwidth". There are so many reasons this could happen on a site with 90% dynamic content and of course, there are fixes for most of them. As a web infrastructure developer, I'm just curious as to where the problem lies.

Now if its just network bandwith, then I can't help ya... Gotta get a bigger slice of the pipe. :D

why don't you guys just stop your whining and excuses and anny up the $20, suckas!!!!
i know you've gotten more than $100 worth of information off the board in the last month alone.
tired of fawkin excuses;"i don't have a checkbook." well, that's your own damn fault.

"Now if its just network bandwith, then I can't help ya... Gotta get a bigger slice of the pipe. " (quote)

Yeah dude, just network bandwith, so tomorrow, I'll probably have to write a big fat check to increase our bandwith, but if thats what it takes to keep this bad ass site a float, thats what its gotta be!!! :)

Yep, That is exactly where it goes.
Did you see this page?

http://www.pirate4x4.com/forum/extreme.html

Yea, i saw it.... but nowhere that I can see does it give lance's adderss to send the paypal to.... i just went back and looked again, i cant find it, so either its not there, or im a freakin sped.

Matt :rolleyes:

It's not hard.

1) Go here: http://www.pirate4x4.com/forum/extreme.html
2) Near the bottom of the page (under the large green writing) is a green Image that says "Pirate4x4.com Donate"and has a visa/mastercard sign on it. CLICK IT.
3) You should now be on a page where you can send $$ to Lance. Address is Lance@pirate4x4.com.

HTH

paid already... thats tricky stuff... doesnt say "click here to PAY." says ""click here to pay with visa/mastercard" i didnt wanna pay with visa or mastercard, i wasnted to pay with paypal damnit! :D

Matt

HELL YEH! got my RED STAR!

See the "attach file" button below?

Pull them off your hard-drive with that.

For you kids that want to send money orders, pennies, ect, just shoot Lance an e-mail. I'm sure he'd be more than happy to give you an addy to send it to;)

Yeah, I heard Lance is only a few red stars away from gettin'
his Avalanche Titans! J/K:flipoff2:

You may this paying by paypal sound like you'd have a hard time working on your truck.:flipoff2:

Hey man, only kidding. :D

Just sent mine in.

:flipoff2:

Hey im all the way down under in Aus and i still forked out the $$ and it cost me $40+ with the exchange rate but i have prob saved a couple of thousand in the 8 months i have been here and would be more than happy if i had to still hand out more to keep a site like this open.

So stop thinking about it and just do it.
