Sponsorship Drive

[Perihelion]

Unfortunately, in the past few months, our ads have been generating less revenue, and people have been donating less. We're starting to run into problems paying for hosting. While we're taking steps to address the issue, like looking into placing additional ads, a few more sponsorships would be enormously helpful to help us bridge the gap until we start getting revenue from them. If you use this site a lot and enjoy the community and resources available here, please consider donating; it would help us out a lot. We really, really don't want to do something like sell the site, so we need your help!

Haven't donated before? It's easy! Just Paypal some cash to donate@rmxp.org. $15 nets you a fancy sponsorship badge with the option to use a custom one instead, unlimited PM inbox size, the ability to delete your own posts and lock your own threads, the ability to log into the forum as hidden, the ability to change your forum name, and your own private (or public if you prefer) subforum for all of your game development needs! One new sponsorship pays for hosting for almost a whole month, so you'll make a tangible difference.

If anyone is using any ad blocking software, you can typically make an exception for specific sites. It is much advised to do so here at HB Games, since there is only an unobtrusive Google ad at the top of the page. In Adblock Plus for Firefox, all you have to do is right-click on the stop sign icon and select "Disable on hbgames.org" when you're browsing this site. You don't have to click the links to generate revenue.

Thanks.

And thanks to everyone who's donated so far. You can see a list here by the way if you're interested: memberlist.php?mode=group&g=8

You might want to update the donation page, since it still donates to ceroscuro@rmxp.org. Just a thought.

Edit: Wait, just checked. The payment goes to donate@rmxp.org, but the reference email is ceroscuro@rmxp.org

Also, just donated. Will you make theory into a Sponsor? I want to see if he can figure out why he's suddenly got an orange name, next time he logs in. If an admin wants to verify emails, go ahead and send me a PM.

I will match every donation up to one hundred dollars.

 

[So fist]

Make me max out guys.

 

[So fist]

That's thirty, seventy more to go.

I will match every donation up to one hundred dollars.

I just donated $15

 

[So fist]

You're included in the current tally of thirty. You and bwdyeti.

You're included in the current tally of thirty. You and bwdyeti.

Ah, all right.

I'd love to donate but all my credit card's money is my dad's and your $15 donation is equal to 60 of my currency

 

[Alexander Morou]

If you'd be willing to give me an idea of what you're paying a month through PM, I might consider it. I've donated near what Captain Murphy said he would match early on, except I think it was all going to that noise fellow.

 

[Alexander Morou]

I have an idea, maybe, just maybe, put a link and icon in the main post of this topic that says 'Click here to donate' using the paypal logo and all that jazz, I wouldn't doubt that people would be more likely to donate if they could be lazy about it and have the destination and stuff setup by the link (I'm sure you've seen similar images on other websites asking for donations). I know, because I'm almost one of them.

Edit:
There, sent my donation, if the PM I received is right, it should be about two months.

Edit2:
Can I make that private sub-forum I bought ages ago, public?

Edit3: Err, sorry for the double post, as it appears, yes, I can edit my posts.

 

[Perihelion]

Oh yeah, a button is a good idea. And yes, we can make your subforum public if you want.

Also, to Brew or whomever edited my post, a bunch of us talked about the subforum thing on IRC and decided that we would include it in the $15, which is why it was like that. I'm gonna put it back, and if you object, we can talk about it in staff or whatever.

;D

 

[Alexander Morou]

Has anyone else helped you guys out since then?

 

[Jason]

See, I'd have donated a while back, but Paypal hates my bank account, I've tried making a Paypal account a good almost-dozen times over the last 2 years, but I keep getting some weird error, so I thought fuck it and didn't make one... so as you can see, I'm screwed when it comes to money and the internets D:

 

[blo0p]

There's another two months for you.
