Server move - donations chat

Ok well it's that time already - this server will be going offline in 2 months. That only gives us a month to get a new server and provider and leave us a full month of redirection.

I'm not 100% sure where we'll be going, but I know we need to start a pot now. I do have a question for you all, though: what shall we set the standard donation at. Normally we've gone for £30 and then some of us double up our donation 'cos we are sooo nice.

Last time we were aiming for 6 months; I think this time we should aim for 12. I was estimating that we only have 10-15 members who can donate the full amount and then another 10-20 members and regulars who will chip in as much as they can (probably between £10 and £20).

That would give us ~£950 which would would hire a dual core rig (only 1gb or ram though?) for a year.

Do you think £50 is attainable or fair?

These and other queastions answered - by you - now - here.

And hurry up about it ... I'm refreshing this page!

Donations are taken through paypal - donations@invisibledanger.co.uk

Money is not refundable and all donations go to keeping the CS:S server up as well as this website, domain and other sundries such as leather pants for Hutz.

Well im up for it, and i do agree with the 50£, being about 70€ a little harsh for me, but again im up for it. We need to do the same thing as last year rogz, in time sent me your bank details to my mail and ill ship it to england. Dont forget the IBAN.
About the 2 people in the same house they should count as one, as that would be too heavy into a couple budget.
My 2 cents.
REFRESH IT NOW!!!

I know im not an iD member but i may be able to make a £50 donation, but it will be pushing it a little. Im not sure about my money at the moment due to the fact i am jobless but once my exams are over and i get my website design set up i should be getting some good money.

Elim m8 you don't have to keep up, maybe when you're a twenty something with a job you can pay £50 - just chuck us a couple of quid. We'd ratehr you didn't go cleaning chimneys just to chip in. ^_^

Well i have never heard anyone turn down £50 before, but fine, a couple of quid sounds much cheaper to me

i would like to throw in a few bucks, but paypal seems not to give a fuck about the serbs!

in oktober i will be moving to germany to study there, then i can throw in something but probably wont have much time for playing games.

i will donate this time but as i only have 8 quid for drinking money i really am out of cash

however i do have a child bank account still (one with high interest rates etc till your 18 and a bit) with about 100 in and ill donate what i can, but no where near £50, maybe around twenty though

People anything you can spare for the server is adequate.
Thx in advance.

I can't see any reason I can't manage £50 or maybe more...

Im currently unemployed so donating is going to be a big struggle, waiting for some student loan ive been owed for 3 months, and despite 5 promises of exact date when they were gona give me it, theyve decided to delay by at least 3 more weeks. So im currently struggling to survive as it is. Fingers crossed tho il be employed soon and more than happy to donate.
