I wont be renewing when my "donation" runs out

 

[MrBee]

The good news is, At least you know when you're gonna die...

 

[PeerlessMack]

I know people are going to scoff at it but it is actually a good deal. There is already speculation that the "donations" will be bumped to $30 next year and possibly $50 in 2 - 3 years. So never having to worry about price increases is a plus.

HOWEVER, at any time BGOL can get shut down/sold/hacked/converted to a women's gossip forum/etc, etc.

From what I understood it went to 20 but wasn't mandatory. I think you can still pay the 10 (at least thats what I remember being said but it could have changed)

One thing I can say for sure is nobody is paying 30-50, I don't care how much we like this board if he starts trying to go that high he might as well just shut it down. people are already at their limits with what their paying now, if he goes higher

Wow...

But is this money going to run the board or other things?

With the way shit is mismanaged around here, folks might not have a choice soon.

The lowest you can pay is $15 right now.

 

[Matt Beesy]

Saw that previously on another thread.

I will miss this board but there are others. And when I travel, I am offline and do not miss it at all.

 

[Rick Spanish]

he asking $20 but will settle for $15

To be fair tho, if you PM him, he'll still take $10...

 

[DatBoyNCali]

Was thinking of doing this myself For the people saying OP is an "idiot", what are the downfalls? Just seems like good economics to me

Other things:

Running this message board is a full time job and it needs to generate enough income to support one black man and his son. I need to generate an additional 2-3 thousand a month to live a decent life and do the board upgrades with ease. Since I am self employed and have been since 1998 I don't carry any bills other than utilities, I never want to put myself in a situation where I have to get a job, so I have always kept my expenses low. This is what I do.

Yeah, that was some bullshit reason. Dude feels entitled for me to support him and his son's lifestyle and not having to work a regular job to support himself and his seed, meanwhile database errors are rampant and we still can't see any new features on this board. The Fuck.

I have literally downloaded a couple of hundred bucks of music, software, and movies from this site in ONE DAY. Let alone the countless information/resources/laughs I've received over the years. What does it hurt my pockets to invest a hundred bucks back into a site that I've reaped so much from? Typical broke/cheap, "I want something for nothing", nigga mentality that runs rampant on this board. I just invested a hundred bucks into this site and that shit will pay for itself (and more) before the month is over with. I don't mind paying for quality/resources. These niggas here man....

But my man....serious question here..


If its the paying members that are posting the movies. software, ebooks, music ect ect ect

so while you have downloaded hundreds of dollars in value there are many of us that have been the ones to post thousands worth of that stuff...

so why is talking about the prices ****** mentality ?

the board isn't supplying that ish

maybe some cats don't mind supporting the board with money because they don't take the time and effort to supply resources oops quality resources

Damn shame you had to break it down for that simple fuck.

It's not the people who are supplying all that free shit he's downloading that are getting the donations.

If people get tired of paying the donation fee and decide to stop uploading/sharing, where the fuck do you think you're going to get it from moving forward?

Not sure where the "entitled" comes in. People build websites and communities to make money. It's a business, just like a "regular" job. You can argue about whether or not you are getting your monies worth or whether or not you are receiving good service, but it's not entitlement. He built it. Folx came.
