Attention: DONATIONS NEEDED

Unfortunately, I see myself forced once more to ask you, the players of FL, to donate some money to facilitate the continuation of this mud.

While I am for transparency and an open approach to what we do with the money YOU give us, I can't go into detail this time, suffice is to say that an irreplaceable member of the staff has run into major financial difficulties and will be forced to quit, if we do not lend a bit of support.
I see myself unable to take on even more work load by taking over their - huge - part of keeping FL running, as I got a full time job and a family myself (and even if I had the time, I do not have their skill in this area).

We will need $600, better yet $900, to keep going.

We currently have $250 left of the donation money. I will add another $200 dollars out of my own purse.

If you can donate a bit, be it 5 bucks or 10, I'm asking you to please do so.
You can do so by clicking on the button at the top of the forum, next to vote.
Our paypal address is: donations@theforsakenlands.com

Thank you for reading, I'll keep you updated.

 

Also posting this as an announcement on all forums.

Can I ask why the costs so high? I run multiple websites and servers, maybe I can help get the costs down if I knew what they were.

 

Did you even read what Anume posted?

Yes I did, how else would I have known to reply to the thread with questions and solutions,

its also the reason I asked why the costs were so high and if I could help get them down.

 

I also posted a way to earn continuous income while you could only come up with 'I'll try to finally make that paypal thing work....'

 

My opinion is that they dont need to rely on random donations that cant be counted on to pay monthly bills, they need

a reliable income stream from the forum that can easily supply $50, $100, $200 dollars a month.

Thank you to all who donated already. We still need about $300, so anyone who can, please donate.

 

Cephirus: There is not really a deadline, bc we also will have to pay server fees (our 15 / month) in the future.

Update:

 

A HUGE thank you to everyone who donated, it's really appreciated.

 

Current status: we got together a total of $700 dollars of the 900 we aimed for, 200 from our account, the rest from donations from various players as well as staff members. Thank you, everyone.

 

We now have a total of $35 on our account we pay the server bill from, which will be enough for 2 more months but not cover a third.

So if you have a bit of money left in the near future, it will still be very welcome.
