We aren't expecting people to pay for the forum, every quarter,Its sad to see you are so far off your £750 quarterly target , More Cuppa's needed
We aren't expecting people to pay for the forum, every quarter,
its just an indication of what it cost, we had to set a target when it was set up, rather like a go fund me page.
As above we are very grateful for any amount at anytime.
And thank you
Its deliberately not in your face, and if you look at the classified section there is a banner there.It is a bit hidden!
I thought that was obvious? we have received 12% of the target ( £750)I’m not sure what the “12% of £750 for 3 months” tells us
There is no need to analyze it, as above we had to put a target in when it was set up, if it takes a year plus, to reach a 3 month target, it doesn't matter,Does it refer to a current specific quarter
Its deliberately not in your face, and if you look at the classified section there is a banner there.
The request is really aimed at people making a nice no fees profit from selling.
Especially those with exceptionally high feed back who are obviously trading, and those that never leave the classified section, to post elsewhere.

.
And of course a big thank you to all that have donated,
We always try and thank you personally, sometimes we can't trace you though, as there is no forum name, and the email is not registrar with TP.
Where do send the Jaffa cakes?As long as it comes with
FYI @sphexx we did achieve the quarterly target in about a year, and then rolled it over to start a new chase for the same amount. As Chris said, we'd rather have voluntary contributions than charge a subscription, and thankfully our advertisers (MPB, Eversure and Trade Canvas Print) subsidise the site's running costs so that we can take that view.
Any kind of cookie gratefully received although @Cobra might prefer small mammals or digits from forum members who step out of lineWhere do send the Jaffa cakes?
I hear of cookies past over the net, but nothing for the jaffa cakes
Sorry
Chicken!Which digit ???
Hidden ( ) away at the foot of the Home page or on the Classifieds.I've been lax and not bought cuppa for ages. Got to hve a morning brew. Where is the link now pls.
I have not visited the basement of the home page , That location is a new one for meHidden ( ) away at the foot of the Home page or on the Classifieds.
It’s completely ‘invisible’ if you are using a tablet (or phone?) but maybe it’s more visible on a big screen, I haven’t checked. I guess (!) that the forum owners may use big screens when modding etc, hence my original pot-stirring about the invisibility of the “cuppa”. “Cuppa” is also a bit obscure, as you said, unless you are familiar with it from elsewhere.I have not visited the basement of the home page , That location is a new one for me
Cheers SmiffsterDone. Forgot the jaffa tho. Ha
As above, and to elaborate a little more. We did think about a fee to sell in the market place, but we decided against that idea.I have not visited the basement of the home page , That location is a new one for me
Again that is the target audience.Hidden ( ) away at the foot of the Home page or on the Classifieds.
But if you click through you will have seen that it is indeed a target for running costs.This to me does not explain the " cuppa " is for helping with forum running cost ??
I certainly do its very difficult using "mod tools" on a tiny screen.. I guess (!) that the forum owners may use big screens when modding etc,
Because that is the name of the "App" that we use.Still can't see why the fixation of the cuppa and not just say forum support , Doh !
OK I give up , Still can't see why the fixation of the cuppa and not just say forum support , Doh !
Its working, and the last few days have got people talking about it ( and donating).As @Cobra says about the app but also it’s a fairly common phrase for asking for small donations on the web, or sometimes “buy me a coffee’ like Gordon Laing (Cameralabs) but not using the app.
Your suggestion of “forum support” won’t work as it sounds like the already existing support pages. There’s probably no easy solution ㋡
Well, we keep bumping this thread which helps .Its working, and the last few days have got people talking about it ( and donating).
I can't see another way other than blatantly advertising it, across the whole forum.
And that's not what its about, it's subtle and relies on peoples good nature
Well, we keep bumping this thread which helps .
