Arek the Absolute Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 my guilt-o-meter is sensin some massive guilt waves commin in from this thread looks like im sucked in too oh well gg for me ill bite Seriously though, if one does not exactly like the stickers and doesn't have enough to buy a hoodie yet, can they just donate and still get their name mentioned in the original post? If so, expect a donation soon. (question 2 to be coming soon) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattoco Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 I simply donated, figuring it would be the most direct source of funding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arek the Absolute Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 Excellent. This then leads me to my second question. Is there an alternate way to donate for those of us lacking the "plastic" that is needed to donate normally? EDIT: Upon further exploration of the "Donate" section of the site, I found an address to snail mail my donation. Expect it within 1-2 weeks. ima be a star baby a star Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Public recognition for donating to a cause is humorous and kinda mezzed up. I said that for the "lulz". I honestly couldn't care less if I get my name up there. For me, it is about contributing to a site that helped me meet possibly the best friends I have ever had. Yes, they may be "e-friends", but after becoming really close to them, they are more than that. The members of the site that were supportive during the 'darker' times of my life really have such a warm spot in my heart. I am more than happy to help the website that made me feel as though I was truly worth something when I lost all hope. It was definitely a strength boost. Dramatic sounding, yes, but I speak from my heart. Each and every member of this site, lurker or poster, all have such a warm spot in my heart. There have been many times that I have not exactly been on the "happy side" with some members here, but that is because really, I just do it for fun . There will never really be a time where I honestly never liked any of you *including bluefox *. I will be happy to donate to this site if it is to help it's survival and make it prosper for years to come. There is a reason I have this as my home page. I love it and everyone involved, past present and future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadow Wolf Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 I have bumper stickers to slap on my new Avalon, and you got $5.00. Or maybe 7. I think eStarland gets the shipping. Point is, you got munnied. Game on, Dave, the site kicks more ass by the day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HalcyonSpirit Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 I've got some money coming in for my college expenses pretty soon (such as food and such). I can part with a meal to support this place. After all, listening to the music from here has kept me going when I had no motivation, it was Mahaboo's LRS&S thread in Offtop that helped me through some of my rougher times (a thread that would not exist without OCR in the first place), and I met one of my closer friends here at VT through this place. I'm in a much more favorable situation largely due to this site, directly and indirectly. So as soon as I get that money, I'll contribute what I can. This place deserves it. I'll let you know when I make the donation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tweex Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 OCR Buff plus $10 from the man who drinks too much coffee (yeah, a South Park joke, try not to shit yourself). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moguta Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 This moogle just sent a couple bucks in for a good cause. And as far as the bumper sticker, DJP... A graphic to go along with the words would be nice, not unlike the current headphones-listening-to-gamepad logo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Derrit Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 Heyo. I'm at a race tonight and tomorrow, so I don't have access to my monies/credo card, but I will be buying some items from the OCStore tomorrow night or sunday. I'll be sure to let you know what is purchased. There wouldn't be any way that I can just tag on 10 extra bucks to go along with my order as a dontaion that way?

I love it and everyone involved, past present and future. I hadn't read through the whole post when I first posted, but after looking over, what Arek said has struck a large chord with me as well. I spent a good amount of time lurking here before joining, and even reading everyone's interaction style was kind of, warming, shall we say. Now even more so that I've started frequenting #clanOCR, even though I haven't been around particularly long its a good place to be; in general everyone there is more mature than the people around me, so it helps take the edge off of a day. In closing, everyone has at least one definitive "thank you OCR" post, and think of this as mine. I have a very soft spot for this site, and the people in it, and I hope to be a part of it for a long long time. And I'm sure as I get to know more of you I'll get to enjoy it, and you all, even more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Public recognition for donating to a cause is humorous and kinda mezzed up. just to clarify, there's nothing wrong with public recognition to those who donate. what would be messed up is if someone were donating SPECIFICALLY and SOLELY to receive recognition. You're right, the main motivating factor should be that if you are here, you appreciate this site and have probably profited in some way from it--not monetarily, but either in new music, friendships, advice, etc. WE'RE DOING WELL, PEOPLE. BUT 22/840 IS STILL A REALLY WEAK RATIO. (~2.5%). Help in a decent cause, folks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abadoss Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 I'll pitch in a ten. It'll be sometime next week, when things are less crazy for me, but I don't mind a few bucks for this place... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
