Why We Do This: Hosting for NoHomers.net currently costs $960 a year, and we only receive approximately $200 a year from ad revenue. While I'm cool with shelling out some money out of my own pocket for the site, support from members like you is always appreciated. 8-)


Goal: $250.


Prizes!

Top Donator: You will be a NoHomers.net global moderator for two weeks... if an admin or a global moderator donates the most, the 2nd highest donator will receive this prize. Also, remember that the winners of this prize in the past (Channel Surfer and gravymaster) are actual moderators these days.

2nd Highest Donator: Your own NoHomers.net usergroup will be created (http://www.nohomers.net/profile.php?do=editusergroups) (ala the XM Empire, Music Nerd Krew, Aussie Krew, etc) and will remain a permanent part of the board.

3rd Highest Donator: Put anything (work safe imagery / approved text) in the signatures of PRESIDENT LOGAN and GRAVYMASTER (for two weeks).

Also, the 1st and 2nd highest donators may receive the alternate prize instead if they'd like.

All people donating receive access to a secret part of the forum if you don't already have access to it.


To Contribute: Send us $$$ to funds@nohomers.net via PayPal or send a check/money order/concealed cash to my mailing address. Send me a private message, IM, or e-mail to obtain that address (and yes, you can use the same snail mail address if you donated in the fall).

Ridiculously low on money at the moment, sadly. I'll see if I can donate something at least

mr. broom
05-21-2006, 08:15 AM
Good timing. I just got a job that pays well, so you get ten bucks of Broomcash, one of the hardest currencies in the known universe.

I recently came into some cash, so I'll probably donate some later (I need to go to the bank and get the money). I want to help out, even though I'm still new here.

05-21-2006, 11:03 AM
$20 coming your way, Eric, once I get more money into my PayPal account. Spent it all on recent purchases :-$

George
05-21-2006, 11:22 AM
will the 'raiser still be on circa 2009? as soon as i'm old enough to get a paypal account, you got money coming your way, e-man.

bluemoose
05-21-2006, 01:05 PM
Money sent :). You should be getting it in the mail tommorrow or the next day.

EDIT: And you're goddamn lucky all I could find were twenties. :silly:

Cape Coddah, with my brother, Todd, literally thrown in a psychiatric ward on May 12th (no thanks to my father, who is now in the process of 'shacking up'
with his 86-yr-old nearly senile lady friend for her money because she's a millionaire!), I have no idea what my financial situation's going to be like.

All I have to say is: thank Gawd for cosmetic skin care/drug companies who use people to test products before they sell them on the market!

The mayor of Albuquerque
05-22-2006, 01:42 PM
I sent you a randomly chosen amount of beer money. I do hope that you spend it on beer, but if you prefer to put it towards "administrative expenses" or some such b.s. that is your choice.
I recommend the beer, though. :party: :chug:

Sorry I couldn't give anything, but I don't have a job for the summer yet, and don't want to spend any money until I do. Also, I never got access to the secret part of the forum from the last time

It seems I can't send anything for this fundraiser after all since two of my magazine subscriptions needed renewing last week. Figured I could make back the money since then but no dice -_- I'll send moola next time.

Okay, my mom came home with a money order for $10. Apparently she felt bad for making me pay for my own things or something so I guess it's heading to you tomorrow, Eric. I wish they'd make up their mind ...

I wish I would have given more so I could make a LOST usergroup.

I'm still ticked because I kinda got gyped out of my prize in the fall...

these users can contact me to figure out how/when to claim their prize. :) thanks again, everybody!

still waiting on yours, ehren.
