Thanks Matty. really appreciate all the work keeping this site as smart, clean and tidy as it was when i first fell in love with it. very very few forum sites compare, especially Redskin ones.

I agree - I like that there aren't 69,000 avatars or 69 million pictures in people's sigs. It's a great forum to hang out in. You know - once you get used to the smell.

Great idea. Spend money for added features to add to the ones I already don't know how to use for free. LOL. Just joking will be glad to fork over a few bucks. Can we add spell check to that package?

Matty, Ive donated in the past, but happy to do it again, I want that jersey! lol.

So I just paid the 25 for the membership.

Also, I clicked on the donation link and sent an extra $25.00, thats for the fantasy league, if I remember correctly I hadnt paid for the money league yet. If I did, well then we'll talk, but I dont think I have so I just paid up for both.

Thanks,

JJ

Oh, so you think you're better than me?

Seriously, keep up the good work matty and mods. Most people would be content to just let the site "run itself" with little or no caretaking. The effort you guys put in really shows, and it goes a long way toward making the site feel more like a community.

jsarno · 11-01-2006, 08:33 PM

Matty, is there a way to donate without using paypal? I had some difficulties with paypal, and cancelled my account.

hooskins · 11-01-2006, 08:37 PM

I still think the idea of being able to upload a profile picture is kinda lame. One of the reasons I like this site is because it is very uniform.....

GoSkins! · 11-01-2006, 08:52 PM

This is money well spent for a place that I get so much enjoyment from.

Thanks to Matty, TAFKAS, Brud, Sheriff and the rest of the mods for all the work they put into keeping this site in shape. I personally won't need most of the features, but I am sure you guys need the money!

very much agree. the title/avatar system warpath had BEFORE was even better, you had to earn your title, AND your pic.

Yeah, except we couldn't distinguish between a post and a quality post. A guy like kidwell would have raced through the rankings with all his nonsensical threads and posts. And that wouldn't have been fair to someone like 70Chip who may not post often but has more valuable posts

Sorry if you've been overlooked, it certainly wasn't intentional. I've tried a couple of different donation systems in the past and it's been hard to keep track of everything.

I've donated $51 total, I think. I'll be signing up for a premium membership, too.

well Matty's rankings back then were pretty trash-post proof. even kidwell would've needed like 500 before leaving "training camp". last time i checked, kidwell could've chosen the same icon as anyone without posting anything at all.

hooskins · 11-01-2006, 09:52 PM

Yeah, either way, I will support the Mods. I just think warpath is backing down from one of the things that are great about it. iT is one step closer to other forums but allowing people to have their own profile pics, but whatever.

skinznut · 11-01-2006, 10:58 PM

Donated before and donated again. I would like to know if I was one of the first 25 though I would've paid regardless. A new jersey would be sweet.

I think you're confusing profile pic with avatar. The avatars will remain what they are now, a profile pic is a picture that is displayed on your public profile that you can see by clicking on your name.
