I donate every Freep-a-Thon but my name never shows up. It used to but not anymore. I use the PayPal feature. They had my old e-mail address and I changed it this time to my curerent one AFTER I donated so maybe that was it. Or am I supposed to put my nick in the comment box?
Couple of things, Bob.
The specific amounts are not disclosed; but donors can, if they wish, announce their own donation. For example, you could post on the FReepathon thread. “I’m sending a cashier’s check for $25,000” and everyone would know.
If you simply sent it in, when received Jim would note:
“We have incoming:
$25,000 from...whatever state you identified.”
Now, another way donors are self identified is by two lists - The Monthly Donor and the Dollar a Day.
Those lists are posted on the Freepathon along with how they work.
Monthly donors receive an e-mail notification each month.
Bob ~ you can choose to have your name on the monthly donor lists and/or the dollar a day club, you just have to let them know.
FReepmail Jim Rob or Onyx and it will be sorted out.
We rewrote that donor list program a few months ago but looks like it still has lingering problems. Will have to ask John to tinker with it some more.
Thank you very much, BipolarBob!!
