That’s not a vanity- it’s a community service.

Why don’t you post more often? You have a voice.

Long time member of this group, I just went to monthly donations figured this is a great site and want it to continue.

Better yet, if each non-donor became a monthly donor, it would increase quarterly donation by thousands. Especially those who use FR frequently on behalf of a single randon website.c

Two of the three months of the second quarter are almost past.

FR is at 48% when it should be at least at 67% raised.

It is about $15,000 short.

FR typically falls $10,000 short by the end of the first month of a quarter and usually stays about that amount short until about the last week of a quarter.

I used to have a monthly autopay donation but that has apparently stopped.

You've been posting comments on threads here at FR forever, so the fact you haven't ever posted a "vanity" seems to me to be immaterial.

We all donate what we can afford to on FR.

There are obviously going to be freeloaders.

You can't do anything about them, unless JR decides to make membership subject to a subscription.

So again, the purpose for your post, and publicizing the ten-dollar contribution you are making, isn't clear.

How do you update the amount of a monthly donation?

I’ll just state for the record that when I have cause to change my tagline things will change for the positive.

What needs to happen is promotion of the forum to young people. Our average age is 55+. Per another poster we’re approximately the 75,000th most popular website. We need more young and minority conservatives. Everyone should the next time they think about posting “din do nuffin”. Or “Meheeico.”

I donate regularly.

Restarted monthly donation, had stopped due to some challenges that have been resolved. Feels great, should have done it sooner. 😁

there are a few self-appointed Mr. and Mrs. Wonderful’s around here that if they gave the time of day to those contributing to their threads posted, there would be huge gains in donations. But they dont. they stay to their own little cliques and dont give af about the big picture!! THAT hasnt changed a lick in your 25+ years!!
