Support RAWK
« on: August 20, 2014, 03:38:49 pm »
Hello all. Many of you support RAWK. In doing so, not only do you get swanky new options made available to you in your user profile settings, but you also get the warm glow that'll sustain your inner human core into the wintery wastes of the festive period. Know that a little of your hard earned corn will fend off the scurvy that has for so long blighted the deck hands of the good ship RAWK's server room.

The instructions on how to donate can be found here: http://www.redandwhitekop.com/forum/index.php?topic=74199.0

Thanks in advance. You note it makes cents.

Basically RAWK are currently skint, what we have in the coffers as of this morning  doesn't cover out monthly costs by a long  way.

So 'rattles tin'

Anything and we mean anything even if its a quid will help us keep running the site.

Thanks for the reminder. Added a few quid which would otherwise be lost betting on daft obscure footy leagues so at least it gets well spent this time  :D

Just agreed to send £50 to John C cos I don't do paypal etc.

What a forum this is, happy to contribute to the costs.



I will make my cheque out for £100 instead if E2K can be persuaded to write his assessment of the Southampton game before tomorrow lunchtime......   And if PoP does as well, I will make it £150.

Good idea this thread. Worth a bump every now and again to remind forgetful arses (like me) that a fantastic site like this needs some support. Will follow up with a regular payment. Keep up the good (bloody great!) work lads.

Mind you, the quality of my posts should see other Rawkites paying me.  ;D

Being a professor at a big University, I still (amazingly) manage to spend 1-2 hours on reading posts in the forum.
Will definitely donate from time to time.

It is easy to set up a nice regular payment through paypal , even if it's a tenner every three months , saves these guys coming out with the begging bowl every so often . Set mine up last time there was an appeal for funds . Rawkaid you know it makes sense

Get on it Mods.... ask E2K and PoP to do a decent summary of the Southampton game (in their usual inimitable fashion) to persuade a larger donation.  Deadline 1pm tomorrow.

After that I'll send my donation to John as per PM.

I think it was Pheeny that did a great tin-rattle about 18 months ago which generated a lot of commitment to donate as far as I can remember. Just a glance in the Support RAWK thread in the Boozer section indicates that just a trickle of donations comes in for a long period after that.
I don't know the server costs but some of the other Mods are meeting those costs to keep the engine running for the masses in here who post daily.


Thanks for contributing mate and the rest of you that do also.

I did indeed,I often did rattle the tin.

It always amazes me on how everyone says what a great site this is and yet so few actually donate. It's easy to do and if everyone gave just a pound there be no worries.

Even though I helped out with running the site I also donated and I know other members of staff also did.
