@jaina- "What do you do if the donations don't reach the required amount?" With no ad revenue or affiliates the only way would be for him to pay it out of his own pocket. At $250+ a month, I doubt donations always (if ever) cover the costs. @Gendou- Come to think of it, has there ever been a month where you received enough donations to cover hosting costs? Can you remember the closest you've come to covering it with donations?    |

1. I pay hosting fees out of my personal bank account, while donations are deposited into it. So, any difference comes out of my account balance! 2. Donations do, in fact, cover the cost, 9 months out of 10. Recently, with the recession, there have been a few months in a row that were well under. It doesn't help that I'm also looking for work right now. :P

Gendou-san... I know this is a stupid question but... Question: Is it okay to you that some [including me.] users download musics here without donating? [Despite that I want to donate. the only problem is I'm just a kid you see. I'll be a high schooler this year. I cannot lend money from my parents since we had enough money for ourselves.] I'm just asking this out of curiosity because I think downloading here without donating something is like freeloading isn't it? And another stupid question: Is putting a different name to your avatar instead of your nickname disobey some rules? [I did read the FAQ but I think it's not there or I didn't read it up fully. If you would not want to answer, then just ignore this message...] Thanks in advance... |

1. Of course you aren't requited to donate in order to download, the very word "donate" implies a voluntary action. If you had to send money to download, it would be called "paying". This is a free website. 2. You may choose any name you want to put on your avatar. That's why it's called a "nickname". It's not your account name (but it could be) or your real name (but it could be) but the name you want people to call you by. Lord of Flames, you seem confused by common English words. Invest in a thesaurus.

thanks a lot gendou-san. Yeah I know. I'm really bad at english. I'm a Filipino. [Of course from Philippines. ^.^] And I don't like English subject. But I do love english and want to learn more about english and the language itself. Thanks again gendou-san. [edit], Okay, another stupid question Gendou-san... Question: It says in the Anime topic in the forum said 'Talk about anime.' But what if a thread says [This is not existing though. Just thinking] 'What if [game name] be converted to an anime?' or something like that, is it against the rules? Since there's a game involved isn't it be moved to Games or Others topic? [Again, I did read the FAQ but can't find it there or not read thoroughly.] Thanks in advance Gendou-san... |

You can also donate or try to uL music. There are other ways to level up quicker as well.

Hey Gendou, I was thinking about something just now. What did you think about a bookmark like system for threads? For example with browsers, you can bookmark that said page, and view it whenever you want to. I was thinking that'd be interesting to add here for the site, since the search function is still not working. It would make finding threads (that at least you like and bookarked) easier, since a lot of threads eventually get old since nobody discusses it often.

To my knowledge, there actually is. Next to the "quick reply" and "post replay" you'll see "subscribe". When you click that, something along the lines of "forum subscriptions" should come up on your profile. If you click it, you'll be taken to the list if the threads you subscribed to.

Hmm, that's interesting. I wonder if you get notifications when more people post in said thread though, and if not, which would be kind of annoying, then my question has been answered I suppose. (I'll just wait for a reply to see what happens)

Well you do get notified. It's through email I believe. Which can be bothersome if you don't frequenty check your email.

Oh yes, that's right. Luckily I don't use that e-mail so it's no big deal. Thanks for helping me clear this out.

Good evening, Gendo-kun. I have a question that bothers me ... Here it is: Why not introduce a donation system by phone? The donation would be accessible to all. Since I am still a child, I can not use Paypal, or Amazon, you know? With the system of "allopass" I could make a donation to support your website free. Thank you in advance for your reply. Please accept, Sir, my sincere greetings. |

@ Ryuuji I don't remember the last time Paypal busted someone for not being 18. Probably because it doesn't happen. Just go down to the corner store and get a pre-paid credit card and use that with a paypal account. Its fast and simple.

I personally prefer to donate by allopass ... I can not use Paypal because I'm not old enough to have a credit card (I can not disobey an order clearly stated by my parents). My personal opinion: I sincerely believe that with the system allopass, you may get more donations and thus less expense to pay for the site. (By cons, if you build this system, do not forget the issue of France;)). |
