I was reading on how much it cost Subsim to keep it afloat, 600.00 dollars per month,and I shuddered at the thought of it going away.Understand this,I'm a retired person,and I have a limited income,but I waste $5.00 dollars a month easily.I play the online flight sim Aces High for $14.95 a month,and I thought why not contribute to Subsim,as they have that option available.I realize that it's a feeble amount,but if a number of us skippers donate like that,it will help Subsim to keep up the good work.I meant this post in the best way possible,and please don't take it in the wrong way.I wouldn't be enjoying SH V right now if it wasn't for Subsim,and all the help I got from the modders.I for one don't want that to go away.

Me too, I chipped in some dollars last week but certainly not enough to keep it running for long :cry:
I don't earn a lot of money but had some cash sitting in paypal after an ebay sale ended. I think every time I'll sell something from now I'll hand the 'change' over to Onkel Neal :D
I certainly get my money's worth :up:
There you go folks, words, not just a smiley :O:

Thanks everyone for the contributions.Yes I think we all take Subsim for granted,but it takes a lot of money keeping Subsim going.I made a onetime contribution a while back,but after seeing how much it cost to keep Subsim going,I knew I had to do better.The Silent Hunter series has always been my favorite,and I hardly fly Aces High at all anymore.I give them $14.95 for basically nothing.
My biggest hope is to get better at SH V,and use manual targeting someday.I'm not very good,so I leave my realism at 69%.I know I'm probably missing a lot,but DarkWraiths mod make it more challenging.It's all about fun,and I must say the modders have made SH V fun for me.Is it perfect ?,of course not,but they keep improving things,and I would like to say,if your on the fence,just give Sh V a chance.It's very nice looking,and you have to learn a lot of new things,which is a new challenge,and lots of fun.
Thanks again to everyone,and if you can possibly contribute,please do.

No need, just your account number, sort code, pin number, pet's name, mother's maiden name, address, full name. Just add it to this thread, we're all friends here :hmmm:
Bank are allowing me my own debit card again soon, then Onkel Neal will get more wonga via Amazon.

pocatellodave Subsim for granted,and I would not directly say that money is not an object,but there are certainly limits to where one can donate, better with smaller donations, a large lump sum only once a year somebody,

Do what you can and keep your mouth shut about it. Neal knows who helps out.
I am well aware that Neal should know what to donate, but since you react to one reminiscent of the stone age, so probably need a little more humility is just to say "shut up" as possible second purchase, but not me
