Hi everyone,

Finally for those who kept asking me how to donate to help with the server and all that. Well the donation bar should be in the header.

If you like to donate and be part of NM Donators, you need to visit your :

UserCP > Group Memberships > Join Donator Group

PHP Code:

http://forum.nihonomaru.com/profile.php?do=editusergroups 


The up coming server payment is due this month the 22nd, so it is always the 22nd of every month for a total of $284 . so it is really coming soon.

I really hope we could cover this cost monthly cause that is a lot to pay by myself every month also thanks for those who donated before to help with he previous server monthly cost. I really appreciated

There is also an award given to those who donate as well



+ Actually that system of donation, it is really nice just check it when you have time =] there is also an award system built inside it, that gives awards depend on the amount each person pays 10,20,30 and so on , so i need to configure that as well.

Some asked me if I donate can :

1- I access the HQ sections.
2- I will be bale to browse the forum without seeing adds.

Well i could make acceptations, I guess so ya sure! =]

Some ppl can't see the donation button, after applying to the Donator group, make sure to clean your browser cache and cookies and the button will appear!

-----------------------------

This is info about the server that i made in my previous announcement.

This is the kind of issue i am currently having :

The issue is not with fastcgi nor mod_php.
It's with memory not being freed for some reason.

So the web server eventually either locks up or load goes high until memory is cleared when either the fastcgi free's the memory when the processes close or through a similar process with apache + mod_php

So far i only received a total of 79.29$ I paid the rest to get you everyone online today with that kind of speed.

The server cost is 209$ ( server ) + 75$ ( management ) = 284$/m

This is the server we are on right now ::



I have physic final this week on Thursday 7 chapters to study and i totally been ignoring that since last week.

Anyways , I will be installing this donation bar may be after my finals are done. These coming 3 days i really need to study hard. I can't afford that amount every month ( 284$ ) it would be easy if ppl donate cause if you look at it, we have 150k members even if everyone donated 10$ or less this amount could be collected easily every month.

This donation bar that i will install will show you automatically

1- how many ppl donated
2- who donated and what is the amount this person donated
3- how much are left till we reach our monthly server cost

so it is a really nice mod that i bough for 40$ last week so it would show you all that in detail and everyone would know who donated and how much he/she donated and all that.

I really know this forum gives you a lot, and still will give more. I am having two big projects coming up in 4 month or so if everything went so good. i won't say what it is but it will be a really nice surprise.

So a little support for all this work would be appreciated. It is for the server anyways without no server this forum won't be online and that fast.

Thanks.

Wow, this system looks great...i love the layout of it and the archiving of past and present donations as a personal feature is a nice touch...you were right about an updated version from what "The B**ch" has on her forum...XD

[Dark Wings]

nice work web mistress really great work
but I don't understand why we should join Donators Group
to make a donation? and even when we want to join
we should give a reason for joining it,isn't that a lil weird
I mean why should someone join this group other than helping
u with server cost?

Edit : I think I got my answer

Some asked me if I donate can :

1- I access the HQ sections.
2- I will be bale to browse the forum without seeing adds.

Well i could make acceptations, I guess so ya sure! =]

Arika..... Can I ask a question? Is the only way to donate? Can we also have another options? Like Western Union.... Or others?

[Rina Touin]

I am not sure but I will check the settings though later on =]

[Blu]

O.o Would I get the donater award if I donated 1$ :P I could donate hosting but you don't wants that.

[ermeyers]

hahaha...i don't think the sytem will even let you donate a dollar. Plus it would be a dollar in Canadian, so after the conversion it wouldn't even be a dollar...But i like the direction you were going Blu. XD

[DDv]

I'm looking forward to it. I can't donate via paypal because i don't have any bank account. I can donate if donating via western union is available.
