Interesting idea to give sort of military ranks.

However that would be certainly good to encourage people already donating to donate even more.

IMHO the problem rather is, that far too few people donate to the site.

So how can we encourage more people to at least donate whatever amount of money?

I think more people giving what they can , is a better way forward, rather than a select few doubling what they contribute. But I suppose both would work.
I have been on this site a long time and have been very happy to pay £50 a year. I don’t think I would like to give much more than that, however .

@Panther

Why don’t we ask everyone who is using this site, what it takes to make them donate ?

[djensen]

I think I can add a tip jar link. Maybe you get a bag of money icon every time you tip a certain amount. 🤣

[djensen]

Not sure if everybody is aware but when you click the Amazon or eBay links and purchase something, we get a small cut. This is true for anything you buy even if your purchase does not include the product in the original link.

Technically, I’m not supposed to encourage you to click links to affiliates in this manner. But that’s how these programs work and you can do whatever you want with this info. 😄

Sorry to hear that. I will contact @djensen to ask him to take a look.

In August, I topped up my $15 bronze with another $45, hoping to upgrade to gold. I have emailed and subsequently sent a DM to Dave, I assume he has been busy.

I have already informed @djensen via another line. I am sure he will resolve this.

No problem, just grateful for this website. Thanks for sorting out the performance issues we had earlier in the year.
