Congrats iMav, you're old as ****.
Now we need a RF 10AE theme

Maybe all the folks that dropped their (monetary) support for GH could help us out...in honor of our 10th anniversary. LOL
I'd love to do giveaways and so forth...but the honest truth is...despite all the money that is made from "vendors" and so forth on GH...I take a loss every month to keep this community up and running.

Do you not think all of those things are an effect of, and not a cause of, lack of donations?

Maybe letting SSL lapse as renewing SSL certs cost money, however I don't see a correlation between donating money and mods/admins starting to become active, seeing as they're not paid. Wiki software updates are free, and it doesn't cost money to clean up vendors and subforums.

To be honest I'd be much more inclined to donate if these forums were actually maintained. Letting SSL lapse, inactive mods/admins, super outdated wiki software, >> DEALS <<, Vendors who shouldn't be vendors in the first place, subforums for people who haven't been active in years, the list goes on.

Where's the thread gone? I will start a monthly donation going.
Ty dude. I found the thread about it as well at -> https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=73331.0
I get paid tomorrow night so I will set something up then.

Who maintains it?

There are 5 admin on the GH facebook group
Larry Herzog Jr. should be the creator :cool:
I'd donate.

I'll donate a kidney, in case someone's making dip for the party.
Still think we need a way to recognize those that donate. If iMav's still propping the site up out of his pocket, then just relying on that warm fuzzy feeling to drive donations obviously isn't working. Giving people the chance to publicly stroke their own ego may encourage more donations.

If you want some mort of recognition then you can always put it in as your personal text. I don't think people should be given any special privileges for donating as you are then just turning it into a club like DT. Maybe we could have an entry on someone's Ultimate Profile like "Geekhack supporter since:" but anything else is unneccesary IMO
I've just started a bronze level pledge, hopefully I can ramp it up in the future.
