Regarding Donations

In most of the old Clans I was in, they had medals/ribbons to those who donated. It was a shiny incentive to donate. Sadly I have never been in the financial situation to donate due to me being a student.

I felt it worked, allthough there was a larger Medal/Ribbon emphasis placed onto the members.

Actually, we do a similar thing. Under the user's post information beside each post, an icon will appear if they've donated. There's about 4 or 5 different images representing different donation thresholds.

Sadly I will have $ problems for as long as I exist (no parental support ever) but if I ever have a few spare trinkets I will do my part supporting {UFP} :3

Ok, this needs a bump this month - 20 days into the month and only £5.00 so far? Come on people - support your fleet!

What's the carry over from months where it passed £5? I mean, some poor months should be expected right and I have seen some really good months. I think one of the problems is when it gets to holiday time, people want money to spend.

Sharpkiller can address that issue, 3o7, but it's a good question. From what I understand, we don't have to hit the 80 mark every month, but 6% is a bit low, even for a "bad month". And everyone has reasons - completely understood. I had to skip 2-3 months of donating due to the chistmas holidays and such. I just like to see more than 8 bucks US...

And I want to make it clear that I say "support your fleet" above as a member, not as any kind of administrator.

Although I would love to donate to the {UFP} for all the hardwork that has been put in for an authentic Star Trek experience, I am only 15 and I don't have a credit card and my parents don't reaally think it is worth paying for this sort of thing (even if it is only a few dollars a month). But when I do get I credit card, I see no problem in donating monthly

I'd do it if I could afford to but as a student, my income is very limited.

We all try are best but some months are going to be lower then ofer months and as for donations thats what it is , yes it nice but on the other hand members feel they support this fleet to what do they see in return is good and bad

I would also donate but I'm doing a lot of saving, on JSA I can't spend a whole lot if I want to do something later in the year. If I can donate, I do.

Indeed if you can donate we'd appreciated it. The money is needed to maintain our servers; including that of our Website and TeamSpeak.

Did someone just donate over £100?

LynxMukka · Posted Thu 24 May, 2012 8:54 PM

They did indeed, I don't wish to disclose who it is in case they do not wish to, but I do want to say thank you very much.

Damn! Well that guy deserves a medal, or a promotion at least! Cash for honours, methinks?
