totally, and if you can go a little more than 60, don't be shy. Every little bit helps.

$5/mo seems well worth it. I'll pay up on Monday when I'm back in the states, since I would like to avoid digital financial transactions while in a developing nation.

Are you taking other forms of payment for those of us who like to boycott paypal? Cash, check, Money order, first born child (should be worth $60)

P.S. You might want to post a link at the top of SegaAge too...since there were no server problems until "they" came about! Just kidding (not really)

I was so fricken bored last night without Nintendoage. I'd pay $5/month in a heartbeat! Hell, I'd pay $5 a month just to get another icon

Do you need some kind of confirmation to prove we donated?

No, I'll work with Dain on getting a list together of all who donated.

Thanks everyone for all the support.

Go Team NA or something.

When should donations be in by? I'd be happy to donate $60 after I find out for sure if I'm going to be working in a couple weeks and not put on furlough.

At this time we have no end date in mind. Many users have PMed saying they will donate when they are able and that's perfectly fine, as we don't want anyone who shouldn't be donating to donate. No one should donate money that needs to go to bills, etc. Thanks again everyone. NA Rocks because of the great community, aka all of you!

Not sure when I can drop the funds yet. Probably when I get the second part of my tax refund. Love yous. And also, Paul - one of the guys posted about alternate forms of payment since not everyone uses PayPal. How can we go about doing that?

Donation sent.

For future years, I think we should all send dupes to Paul and have him auction them off. I volunteer Paul, cause it would be a lot of work, and the only carts he'd keep for himself would be crap.

Edit - I sent the donation as "payment for services". Is there a specific set of steps that should be followed. (Gift, etc..). I thought I remembered someone having problems before when they received too many gifts.

That's a good point. If Paypal caps you on the amount of gifts you can receive, how do we send the paypal payment then? As a regular payment (+30 cents + 3%) to ensure you guys get the full $60?
