I was wondering how a forum needs a 100 dollars a month to survive? This the right place to ask that?
Based on traffic alone (especially since so many people from the other place are lurking and "reporting back"), a shared server isn't going to work. A dedicated server, or even a VPS, can cost at least $1k a year. I don't think $100/month is very much at all, tbh.

It does not add up to 100 a month....if it was something simple like 30 or 40 a month I could picture it and would contribute, however seeing 100 makes me feel like this forum is trying to turk for free outside of mturk.
lmaoooo

Many addons can range between $10 and $30. All three of our forum themes were $25+ and we'll be adding more because we want to give people options. The math really isn't all that complicated.

IDK but I based my donation amount on 10% of what I earned from hits that were posted here that I missed myself

Edit I also don't care if they get "rich" and splurge in hookers and blow...I appreciate the $ I found that I missed on scraper etc.
