BG Forums have grown a lot in the past year, from our first server with the new system, killed in a month and a half. The second server, killed within a few days, the wonderful third that ended up not even having enough power to handle the growing community, and now the fourth super forum that handles all of your traffic happily.
Except bandwith... oh yeah... we have used tons of it. On our average trend we would exceed our allowed bandwith within three to four months. If we are going over it will not affect the server BUT it will be a serious charge, one that we want to alleviate in our want to upgrade.
So, for your consideration, we are having a donation drive. We will have full disclosure of the donations and give you a number so you know yours has been reported and kept track of. These donations will be anonymous except for your number. This will keep us nice and safe and youll know that we arent taking the money and holding onto it so we can get bought by another company and pay for hammers, small furry creatures, palletes of strawberrys, and galka sized bondage gear.
I will be taking my own PERSONAL money and buying things to use in this donation drive, so please include a contact email with your paypal so I can enter you in the drawing. It will be some official FFXI stuffed animal things and some computer gear, maybe a hat or two, Im still working out the give aways. (PM me if you would like to donate a give away for the donation drive)
Once again, 100% of this money is going to the forums, 100% of this money will be used for the server, 100% of this money will be for the community to stay for the FFXI and popular general discussion forums.
Id like to thank all of the community for its continued support, I know that some of you might not be able to donate because funds are tight, but if you can spare, it will be appreciated.
