| Its completely up to you if you want to. Many have already - i believe chips has been given enough to run the server another 8 months or so. |

Bent the Pay Pal option is to donate money to pay for the TFC server. The TFC server is costing us 40 dollars a month which is a good price for a game server as most are in the $50 and up range. I dont know how much Chips has in donations at the moment but I would say any donations is appreciated whether it be $1 or $100 dollars.  |

It's hosted by the same guy (Pat) that's hosted us for free for so long now. It was only right to give him the business when he decided to put up another box...that for now is a little more dedicated to us. I've been happy with it overall.
I have enough in donations to get us quite far into the year. Of course, donations were never needed here...so I built up a little war chest. Donations for our future would be much appreciated...perhaps we'll move on to a server for another mod if we do well enough. That's up to our community...through it's donations. |

You know what else works rather well?
If BarBar ever finishes the website, banner and google ads on the main page... That should roll in a little extra dough... |

| Speaking of donations, if one were to make a money order from outside the US, where can it be sent? |

| Anyone wishing to make donations through methods other than pay-pal...contact me via pm and I'll give you the necessary information. I've received one cash and one check donation in the regular mail so far...so there's plenty of ways to help. |

| I also accept donations from the community for my time and effort making navigation files for Foxbot. I don't have a paypal account, and have recived some small donations through snail mail so far. feel free to send it to Chip's paypal account. If he recives any memoed for me he knows what to do. |

| You guys should use the money to get a 16 slot league server with a league map only rotation. |
