I typed out a long reply, only to find Tak beat me to it.

:rotfl:

The 'Wild Night' avatar only lasts one post, #179.

Was just teasing a bit...
But true, went through a bunch of not so cool ones.
Am not too rich, if it was not money, would have made a donation since a long time. But well, I'm not giving up the idea, and it's not only a question of getting a perso avatar...

I'm not rich either.

Donations keep this site online, everyone has to do their part.

JMV · 08-26-09, 01:39 PM

I got the message, Neal will do that in the coming weeks. Just watch me.

( incidentaly, is there a thread somewhere that give your address, cause it will be cash money ? )

JMV · 08-26-09, 02:25 PM

Would this address be OK ? :

Neal Stevens
5108 Woodville Ln
Pearland TX, 77584

Onkel Neal · 08-26-09, 08:22 PM

Yes, that's Subsim Central.

And thanks, mate, your help is appreciated, specially now with me being unemployed and all.

I'm sorry to learn that you lost your employement ( Oil industry if I remember )

About my little contribution : If I send it to this address, I hope I can be sure it gets in your own hands, YES ??

NOW SERIOUSLY :

You should hammer the member more often ( not too often though, as it might upset some ), but there should be a smarter way to draw their attention to that ( It only cought my attention, when I went to this forum, but most members never go to "Comments to subsim" or other forums, they stay on SH3, SH4 etc...)
You get 6.5 % from Amazon, and I recon a lot of members buy a lot of games, book at Amazon, without knowing they could do some good to you and Subsim...
Not many members know about that and I recon there must be a way to put an incentive to all members, to pay attention to this. But I'm not a specialist, and would'nt allow to give you advises...
You're doing a great job, and, as for myself, have spent countless hours of happiness on this site.
May be it would cost you a bit of money initially, but may be you could try to have a track among all the members, the ones that have posted in this last year or year and a half, and E-mail them about this.
You can do that also for new members ( imperative I think )
And make a sticky about that ( Probably double-sized letters ) on every forum, and not only on one, and on top of all the others....
I don't know, You're the boss, and I can't say or do anything else beyond that.

Also, as I posted in an other thread, I would be interrested ( may be it's answered by now, but don't remember the name ), to buy other Sims like 688 or DW, or books , but I don't have a credit card.... It's a pain for me believe me
If I send you money to the above address, and give you the money in advance, would you be able to send me the ditto games or book.
Be sure I hate having to ask for a special treatment...

Thanks for an answer whenever you can.
