• This is a political forum that is non-biased/non-partisan and treats every person's position on topics equally. This debate forum is not aligned to any political party. In today's politics, many ideas are split between and even within all the political parties. Often we find ourselves agreeing on one platform but some topics break our mold.

All,

As many of the old timers around here know - I hate to ask for money. Please please remember that we are here because of your donations.

We are very transparent about our bills. Our cost is $280 a month + $10 to help build up bills like domain & addon software.

We have used all our reserves.

Once the donation level has been met, the donation bar will disappear. If it is gone, consider donating next month.

Thank you for being a member of the best political forum on the internet.
 
$50 inbound, standby.

Is there a link that shows in depth the costs of running this place?

I have no idea, but after the time I've been here, I have no reason to believe that admin would be lying about it. It basically boils down to whether or not it's worth it to you.

I wouldn't think they're lying either. I just find it to be very high relative to the software used and the apparent traffic.
 
Donation bar is gone. You all rock!!

I reup every October and April on a 6-month basis, as can be seen by the Bad Company song with a one-word adjustment.
"Give me silver platinum and gold the color of the sky I told"--as I know X factor has.
Since I know it costs the owner a half cent for each waste of bandwidth I use.
It's high time for scofflaw scabs to pay their fair share .
 
Since I've joined this site, I've paid my way at the beginning of the year by "donating/purchasing" the highest level in the menu. I believe in paying for what I receive. However, since during this year I have been arbitrarily and unjustifiably banned from access to part of the site, I will be reconsidering that position next year.
 
Why would I donate to something I can be banned from? Would I get my money back?

You have to look at it like an apartment rent.... you get to use it, all of it, but if you break the lease you get evicted.

How about if you don't want to donate... don't donate...

How about if you don't want to get banned... don't break the rules...

I do, but many on here are so liberal they just cant wait to be offended.

If you get dinged that means you broke the rules. You wouldn't be banned otherwise.

I get banned because people cant take straight talk with facts and truth. Everyone wants its sugar coated and their view, no matter how wrong, respected.
 
Moderator's Warning:
There's always at least one bad apple in the bunch. Thanks to all who regularly donate and thanks to those who did here. Donating is optional but the site is funded by those who do donate.

Closing thread.
