Welcome to the 2021 Axis & Allies .org support drive. We hope you’re enjoying the new forums! :confetti_ball:
We do understand that’s it’s not perfect yet, but the new forums provide tons of new and useful features like mobile ready, chat, drafts for posts, better search, and more. On top of that we’re making changes and fixing problems every day to make it work exactly how you want.
Take a look at the migration to do list and the update log to see all the hard work that has happened and all of the tasks yet to do.
Hosting costs have gone up for the new forums. The monthly hosting bill is about 50% higher than previously. On top of that email costs have gone up; however, now you all are finally receiving all the email alerts.
This support drive will end on December 31, 2021 and the next one will begin in 2022.
Amount raised: $1596 ($2622.50 in 2019)
Number of 2021 unique patrons: 47 (60 in 2020, 90 in 2016)

:arrow_up: patron in 2020, renewed with discount.
I’m working on some perks this year. So far:
Gold Perks:
Silver Perks
Bronze Perks
These funds will go towards the following:
There will be three support levels available. When you donate, you will receive a special badge on your profile.
To donate, just click on the “Buy Now” PayPal button on the right of your screen.
In order to get your badge, be sure to include your email when you purchase your support level. Next, send me an email with your Axis & Allies.org username so that I can give you the badge. david [dot] jensen {at} axisandallies (dot) org
Thanks!
If you get your badge and are not listed, it likely means I forgot so just send me a friendly reminder.
Dave Jensen, Founder of Axis & Allies .org
@djensen You can of course count my Gold-support in. But unfortunately I get a “Paypal system error - Try again later” when clicking “Buy Now” in the “2021 Support Drive-box” on the right.
I am in for Gold too however I received the same PayPal error.
@djensen It works now - I have successfully donated as announced. Thank you. :slightly_smiling_face:
@AndrewAAGamer said in 🎖 Axis & Allies .org 2021 Support Drive:

Worked for me too! All in!!!
@djensen I should be too.
I’ve just renewed my Gold badge and PayPal worked fine for me.
I think you guys do a great job and I am happy to support the site!
In it to win it again. Sorry I was a bit late.
Just bought Gold David. Thanks.
Here are my thoughts on patron benefits for 2021:
Dave Jensen, Founder of Axis & Allies .org
No thoughts on this?
Dave Jensen, Founder of Axis & Allies .org
@djensen no adverts would be very desirable.
@djensen
Would u not get more members ?
I’m saying if guests see the forumn chats does it draw them more to be a member compared to not seeing any talk ?
@gen-manstein The patron-only forum would be just one section of the site. Not site-wide. It would likely be for things like special deals from our Sponsors and maybe planning special events. Likely low traffic but I wouldn’t know until we tried.
Dave Jensen, Founder of Axis & Allies .org
I like the no Google Ads for Gold. :)
@djensen It seems I’ve missed my 2020 badge…can I get that one for renewing now? I’ll renew again later for the 2021…
@djensen have any of these been implemented yet?
Any benefits of patronage would be nice, but it was the badges which worked for me :trophy: . I saw them on forum posts, which led me to the donation page and consequently I felt like I should make a donation. Maybe some people would pay for removing ads but I don’t find them too intrusive on the forums.
To be honest A&A, this website, TripleA and the A&A community are way better than any startegy game I’ve purchased. I’m totally hooked! Hopefully more new people will find it and then become paid up members too.
I renewd.
Thank you @djensen for another great year of triple a!
This is my triple a home.
If you need me, you’ll find me in the League forum.
Again, thank you!
