This subject has been brought up before but seems time to address it again. So many members do not fill out their profile. It's really not to difficult, your age If your a female lie a few years we understand, your location, if you live in a illegal state. just put down East Coast, West Coast or some BS in the middle, just to give us some idea where your located.

Now let me get on the subject of donations. Why do we have so many members taking a free ride? It's understandable that a person comes on the site, looks around, maybe post a few times and gets their machine working, and doesn't make a donation. But how about the guy that's on for months or even years and never send in a Dime !!! ( makes you really want to help that fellow if he has a problem doesn't it ) There are only two things that keep this site going, donations and Joey's deep pockets. I for one think Joey spends enough of his time keeping this site up and running that he shouldn't also have to pay for it . I should add CaptainHappy also works his butt off for the site .

Great points Buzz,  I think it is about time to bring the subject up again  yes

Hats off to Joey  garfield & CaptainHappy  CaptainHappy for all they do here !  applause  at  nlg

I donated before the contest... durning the contest and after the contest and think that anyone that finds this site usefull should !

It don't have to be large amounts but I think consistency is more important.

If everbody donated just $5.00 a month that would be great.

I try to give at least 10 - 20 a month to help pay you guys for putting up with me  bust gut laughing Sometimes more & sometimes less depending on my financial situation is and how many beers I've had at the time...   rotflmao
So drink up & donate !  arrow

I was being hilarious..... but along this line of reasoning and the request, I guess there is no way for the average person to know who might be a paypal'er or not.... we just have to assume most are being nice people.

Now, there are ways for people to get merit or recognition via the admins based on financial help.... sorta like posting levels....

At the time of your donation, you should email Joey with the payment info so he can update your profile (first time contributors).  Your's reflects that you are a contributing member....


and for those that haven't done so... Please fill out your profile, you never know who may be nearby and could offer help or a beer...

Thanks,
Wayne

Rick  It's pretty simple, if your name is in Green you have made a donation, name in Blue you haven't !! I've said to much today, I don't have a dog or cat so think I'll just go kick a slot machine !!!

I would not want to know what an IGT or Bally or (fill in your brand here) tech would charge to fix your machine, oh that's right, they don't support home users. But I'll bet they charge the casino $$$ per hr and a 4 hr min. to show up. That is after the techs have had a crack at it and they are stumped.

To all blue name members...

I think I'm gonna start charging.... Tongue Out   just kidding...lol ...2 cents ain't worth it  bust gut laughing
Actually, any member whom has not contributed to NLG after
10 posts will not get any help from me until they do.
Sound fair?
I don't want to start naming names of all those who have blue names at the moment...
I think you know know who you are!
So, do you think NLG members have helped you in any way?
Have you learned anything from this website?
If you've answered yes to one of these points...please consider helping out a little.
I can assure you...YOUR donation will NOT be wasted on Army Screwdrivers. waving flag American Flag

Please don't beat me, but might I ask a few questions?

First, I should preface this with the following; I "work" (admin and moderate) on a few other forums, and have owned a couple in the past as well (don't own any right now). I've worked with Simple Machines (which this site uses), phpbb, and vbulletin (for those of you not familiar, these are types of "forum" software). I've also worked with various hosts, and virtually all the sites I've been involved with have been on shared servers, some Windows, most Linux.

My experience has been that with most forums with 30 thousand (or less) members, most any shared hosting plan will support forums fine - no need for dedicated server(s). Two I work at use Godaddy, one uses AsmallOrange, another uses some other basic provider. Domain name and server space on Godaddy typically only runs around $100/year. AsmallOrange is a little more, but you can also get vBulletin included with several packages.

I am curious as to what the expensive costs are, as SMF and phpbb are free (vBulletin is a paid-for product, with annual support renewals). If I can help out or offer technical assistance or experience in any way, I am happy to as I am able, and would hate to see the owners of this site spending extra money that they wouldn't have to.

EDIT: I just took a look, and see that this site is being hosted on theplanet, which might explain the costs (a couple other sites I know used to be hosted with them). Joey, do you have your server bandwidth/usage/size stats?

Again, please don't beat me, I'm the type of guy to search for coupons for the casino buffet, use match-play coupons, and anything else to reduce my costs at casinos
