The sad truth remains that 5% of FReepers support 100% of FR. Can you imagine what it would be like if we had 10% support? These things would wrap up in days, not months.
When I joined FR ten years ago, it was not uncommon to git 'er done in 7-10 days. It was less expensive 10 years ago, but, it really shouldn't take two months.
Not everybody can donate. I get that. But, I'm certain that we have some among the 95% that are FReeploading. Harsh words, but I know it's true.
Imagine no FR. No way to get the REAL news that affects us all. No pool of talent to ferret out the real truth. No ability to call BS when we see it.
The list goes on.
We need your help. We need new donors. We need new blood.
If you've never donated, give it a whirl. If you donate once in a while, try monthly donations. It's really painless.
Imagine a Freepathon that lasts days, not months.

Let’s start a campaign to sign up members for $30/month. I’ve been giving that amount for several years now. If most readers did, we might be able to do away with the Freepathons altogether. That would be great.

I have asked before for FR to quantify it, what is a fair share?
For me, I base it upon my usage. If I post several articles and reply to them, I tend to donate. On the other hand, if I am deployed, and just reading, I tend not to donate.
I feel that $15 to $25 a quarter is what it is worth to me.
Your mileage may vary.

We have widows, widowers and unemployed that just can’t do that.

You’re right. $1 a day.
That’s my donation, also.

Been here many years. Monthly donor.
Joined when my son went to Iraq the second time. Lurked for awhile before that. People here had the best info regarding the war.
Never posted a single thing, but made some replies.
I'd be lost without FR. My first place for news!!!
Guess I'm just the quiet one......
