Jim Alfredson Posted June 22, 2004 Report Posted June 22, 2004 Hi friends, Many of you have requested an easy way to support this forums through donations. Of course, the simplest way is to purchase our CD, but since we only have one and many of you have already bought it (thank you, thank you, thank you!), some members were looking for an alternative way to show their appreciation for this site. We will have a second CD soon, hopefully before the end of the year. And we haven't forgotten about the tribute CD as well. But in the meantime, if you wish to support The Big "O" financially, we have implemented a simple "Donate" button up at the top right of the screen. It looks like this: Donate Clicking on the link will take you to a Paypal page. You must have a Paypal account to donate. If you do not have one, please read about their service and see if it's something you want to try. If you do have one, you probably know what to do! We would like to stress that no one is expected to donate to the forums!!! We are not going to charge for membership or ban you if you don't give us money. This is strictly voluntary! We appreciate any help you can give us, even if it is simply your membership and posting contributions to this community! Please do not feel obligated to donate. Thank you! ----Jim Alfredson & The Organissimo Forums Team (Randissimo, Joe G, & Use3D) Quote

catesta Posted June 22, 2004 Report Posted June 22, 2004 indeed... if only I hadn't overdrawn my credit card by ordering the VeeJay boxes... ubu There is nothing worse than an overdrawn king. For the record, I think this was a great idea. It's fast, easy, and for a good cause! Quote

tjobbe Posted June 22, 2004 Report Posted June 22, 2004 the donate button really works... B) Hope you use the money wisely Cheers, Tjobbe Quote
Rooster_Ties Posted June 22, 2004 Report Posted June 22, 2004 Donation sent (and I'll probably do so again in a few months). This place is worth it's weight in gold. Quote
Bluerein Posted June 22, 2004 Report Posted June 22, 2004 Mine should be inn too. Please keep up the good work. Cheers, Reinier Quote
ghost of miles Posted June 22, 2004 Report Posted June 22, 2004 Hope you use the money wisely Cheers, Tjobbe It's only a matter of time before the scandal breaks... a year or so, I'd say, before the photos of the lavish new Alfredson estate, Joe G on a bender in the Bahamas, and randissimo with a flock of babes on his arms in Los Angeles all pop up in the press and set off a wave of outrage. Thanks again for the board, guys. And it's even cooler that people like Joe Carter and Frank Kimbrough are now posting here! Quote

wesbed Posted June 22, 2004 Report Posted June 22, 2004 After all my 'big talk' about donating to the Board. Now, I have to get a Paypal account. Quote
Soulstation1 Posted June 22, 2004 Report Posted June 22, 2004 i heard a rumour that b3-er's new baby girl has disposable gucci diapers..... ss1 Quote
ghost of miles Posted June 22, 2004 Report Posted June 22, 2004 If I dontae a BUNCH of money can I get some preferential treatment? Yes, the hell with this egalitarian business! Howza bout "Organissimo Insider" and "Organissimo Pioneer" categories, etc.? You know--backstage passes to party with the band, access to "secret" parts of the site, and, for the really big spenders, the creation of honorary forums named after them? B) Quote
RDK Posted June 22, 2004 Report Posted June 22, 2004 Ulp... Hey Jim, you're absolutely right and I realize that I never did get around to buying that CD of yours. Is CD Baby still the prefered way to do it or is there a better way to get more money directly to you guys (and maybe a bit extra for the board)? I will await your answer as I hang my head in shame... Quote

Is CD Baby still the prefered way to do it or is there a better way to get more money directly to you guys (and maybe a bit extra for the board)? I will await your answer as I hang my head in shame... The easiest way is CDBaby. We don't get as big of chunk, but that's fine. However, if you'd like a signed copy, you can send $15 to me and I'll get the boys to sign it. I must warn you, however, that poor Herb sent me a check in April (it arrived close to my child's birth) and just yesterday I sent him the CD! (shame!) I'll try to be better if you go that route. My address is on the website proper (www.organissimo.org) under the "contact" menu button. Quote
Jim Alfredson Posted June 22, 2004 Author Report Posted June 22, 2004 Oh, and thanks all who've made a donation. I'm not sure what we'll do with it yet. I'm still talking to Ken about ways to improve our server. Quote
couw Posted June 22, 2004 Report Posted June 22, 2004 I can't use paypal but would consider to send you one of my kidneys. Please contact me via PM if interested. Edit: both kidneys are in VG condition. beats a big liver I guess... Quote

For the record, I think this was a great idea. It's fast, easy, and for a good cause! At least, Mr. Catesta, the king has the bogaloo sisters, and he likes'em a lot! ubu B) Quote
