First off, this is not a begging post. It's just a nice explanation of what will happen if we don't get enough donations to keep the servers up. And there's not even much to explain, just know that:

No donations => No server => No rp-mods

We're at a point where i can't be all nice and say "If you like this project, please be so kind as to donate a few bucks". We need donations, as soon as possible. That's it. If every active member donates 5€/7$, we should have the server costs covered for the month.

Fine, bring my Karma down to negative, we still need donations to keep RP-Mods alive.

I donated small amounts for SL and would be happy to do so again, but only like $10 USD/month.

I know a few ppl running dedicated servers that maybe could help with hosting, but the proprietary nature of this mission prevents that.  Sadly so.  I love the platform and stat save but would love to be able to tweak it a bit with more air vehicles and other minor adjustments.

That topic has been long decided, but I'm just trying to point out that if the mission were open, ppl that already have the server resources necessary could run the mission, instead of trying to support the lone server with donations.  I understand the reasons for closing the code, but am disappointed that a few ruined it for all.

Tigerbee, an Austrian, who is very nice compared to former management.  I see X3r0 hop on TS every once in a while, and Jake left.  Issetea has no time except to answer questions and try to help people here.

10$ is perfectly fine, we are happy about any amount that helps us keep the servers online.
