Just a crazy idea but i thought since you guys work hard to keep this forum going that we should have a donation center so if anyone wants to donate some moola they can. You can use the money to fund the forum and other forum related things. Donations can be made every year or whenever someone is ready to contribute.
Don't want to start anything just an idea let me what you guys think.

I see it on a lot of the other forums. Folks are usually willing to put forward a few bucks to help absorb the costs of the site. I'm not sure what our overhead is, but I know my ATV club's website runs me about $200/year (including domain name registration). 20 people put out $10 each and it's taken care of.

One thing the mods can maybe do is under the "news section" where it says " put a flier on a windshield" or " welcome newest member" is fix the date from 2007 to 2008 when it says " don't forget to wave in 2007" This has been throwing off my waves so far this year. I keep forgetting!  |

Keep clicking the banners. I did...even though I didn't think that my love was cheating on me. I don't know how that banner popped up there...I reloaded the page and they wanted me to donate a car, loose 10 lbs of belly fat and something about international adoption....sometimes I'm not too sure about the adds at the top. |

lmao (ouch) don't make me lol  changing to 2008 for ya  It's been a rough year for me so far that's why I haven't been on. Real life has been taking swings at me!! I lost my job of 8 years & then was hit by a drunk & rolled my wrangler ouch ouch, ok, I better stop that I'm not looking for a handout but....  I've considered selling this forum with www.wranglerunlimited.comI don't know what else to do... IF I did sell it, it'd only be to someone here. I built this site up from 1 member, me & would want my baby to go to someone who loves Jeeping as much as me. |

If you did sell it, could we do a Green Bay Packer thing and have the "town" own it? I'm willing to pitch in.

I would definitely contribute some money. I'm sorry, but there is no site like this. Are you okay from the accident? Do you still have a jeep? BE well, Brian

The site is here to stay, it really doesn't cost alot to run it other then the renewal fee every year for the domain name. I'm just looking at my options as I am stillll jobless For this site to get better with a "PhpBB" type of forum is where it starts costing $$ I'd like this to get to that level someday  For now I'd be happy if I can correct a few of the broken smilies, lmao I'm ok, banged up, nothing broken, stiff neck and back. Bruised the top cervical bone on your back, bottom of your neck; forgot the technical term.. Could have been worse!! Thankfully I had my seatbelt on, oh ya, I have the typical seat belt bruise/stripes lol, looks weird! The Jeep was my daily driver- a YJ, NOT an Unlimited. I was very close to buying one over the Winter but then lost my job! I'm NOT Jeepless though I have a Scrambler I bought new in 1985.. It's getting an organ transplant from the YJ; fuel injection  |
