Was donating money a tough decision for you to make?

    ^ Oh hot damn Tier 6!

    No one knows I am part of PC so I had to keep this secret from my parents. I managed to donate by taking some money from my little stash and writing a small letter sending it via airmail from the UK.
    I could not get it done by PayPal. Getting all these things in secret was hard so when I could not get something I would decide to give up and keep it on hold but eventually I got it all done in the end. I was very glad the whole little plan worked. I think I made the right decision.

    You, like Me and I believe only Jaxsem, donated over $99 dollars

    Edit: I found it once again easy to donate, I had covered for someone a work last week, which pushed me up above what I normally get so this donation was no problem.

    Edit2: Aack! I just noticed my awesome italic & blue username is gone!

    Wow, that's nice.
    But if 1 tier is for $5, 100 should be tier 20 xD.
    Nah, just kidding, thanks for the explanation.

    Nope, definitely not. Even though I've not been a member for that long, I've already posted quite a bit (mainly in OT), and I really enjoy it here. I'm on here during pretty much every bit of my free time. It was definitely worth it. In fact, I will probably continue donating a little bit here and there.

    that's pretty much what I've done X-626. whenever I get an extra few bucks and I don;t know what to do with it, I'll give a little donation to here. I feel good about it and know that what I couldn't find a use for, PC can use it to keep running.

    Is that how you got Tier 6? It's great that you've given so much.
    I somewhat know that costs of running a site (I do not know the costs of running a large one, though), so that has also been a factor in me donating.

    No, I just found some money laying on my desk... I spent sometime looking for game I wanted, but nothing, so I just donated it to the PC. xD I might do it again if that happens, lol.

    I donated so long ago that I cannot recall the specifics of it. It was easy though no issues or what not.

    It was a very easy decision for me, but I did need to secure a means to actually donate. (I don't have a PayPal account of my own, you see) Thankfully, after having a little talk with Rukario, something was worked out. ^^ The only thing that I needed to do was wait for the money to do so, but other than that, I'd decided I was going to donate once I'd returned and had the money to do so. ^^

    Nope, I'm glad I donated. I only recently joined, but I already feel at home and want to help to keep this place up and running :P.

    Not really. My parents wouldn't have really approved, they would say I'm throwing my money away to help a website, plus they roll their eyes at me watching/playing Pokemon. That's why I sent it snail mail without them knowing! :mudkip;):

    Oh let me tell ya, it was a VERY hard decision for me to make, it took me days just deciding if I should donate or not.

    I too am glad I donated. If there is a website, that I particularly enjoying regging, then I will see to it that (in the event that they have a button for it), will help them out, for basically, helping me out :)

    Plus it forces me to not frivolously spend money on movies and music at work XD
