Derek, are there enough free loaders left to get to the $15k a year range on the annual drive?
Not at 25 bucks per. I think we hit 8K last year but that was on the strength of a BUNCH of Wigwams. We are 54 Wigwams short of 15K, and last year was by far our best year ever for donations. We need to double the user base to make that happen, plus have a small uptick in user giving rates. Some people, whom I love, actually give more than the $129 Wam level donation, which helps a bunch as well.
edit: We have 63 Wigwams now, but a handful of those are freebies given out to people who do a bunch of other stuff for the site. So figure about 60 Wigwams. We need to double that. And the year before I think we had like 43 Wigwams, so we went up markedly last year already. Doable I guess, but going to take more fans of the site. And if we could get a few of the free beer fucks to pony up that would be great as well.
Chinned for proper use of "whom".
In all seriousness, I don't understand not donating to a site that has so much entertainment value. Most of us spend a shit ton of time on here for a reason. We get something out of it. So chip in, fuckers.
I plan on donating a little more this year.
Oh look at you money bags!
Are you gypsy?
Nope. No gypsy blood here. I'm 100%
Figures! Wasps are the assholes of the insect world.
I kill like 1,000 of them per year and they keep coming.
Call me?
I have, but all you wanted to do was talk about watches.
Freedom to @AZDuck !!!! Come on stalin don’t be a cuck and in ban him. Will make wam donations as soon as he is freed.
Speaking of cucks, maybe AZ _should_ be reinstated, but with a name change to AZCuck.
Why? He'd be banned in 2 days anyway. He's been banned everywhere He treads. Every board, every social platform. Looks like He's baaaaack on Twatter but that's the only place that will have him.
Yes, he'll shit himself in no time.
Hmmm... Speaking of freeloaders... What say you, salem?
Baze is FIRST!!!!
Initially it was that I refused to give to anything Husky related. But that doesn't really hold water.
And I can't really say that I'm too poor to do so, because if that was the case I could be doing something else than poast here, at least after the normal work hours, to make more money.

Really it just boils down to being a tight ass.
But it is tim to give something.
If I had a Salem, OR mortgage I'd sponsor 10 x Wam memberships. Fuck, we know people at a 5 acre winery down there in the Eola Amity AVA that make world class wine, and you can buy the whole thing, inc. house for $1.2 million.

Joking aside, you donated $258 last year. If you want to that's great, but please don't feel obligated.
I'm not trying to toot my own horn, but it was actually $400.
I don't feel obligated. I spend 16 hours a day here, so I'm okay chipping in a little more. Plus, I just got a 48% raise and I'm doing well, even after making sizable monthly support payments to my ex.

Good point here. You can sponsor badges. I've sponsored a few over the years. Help the less fortunate pours around this shithole.

You couldn't sound any more old, rich, & white.
Are all crew types this elitist?
Maybe me and @whlinder can try and drum up some rich row boat alumni support to partake in Hardcore Husky. But all my best row boat frens are either Doogs, snowflakes, or don't care enough about Husky football.
The idea of ostracizing or ignoring people who don't pay but actively contribute to the site in other ways (i.e. discussions, memes) is FS. Guess I'm thinking of the young and the poor (or both in THIS economy). I'm a millennial so I'm still in the mindset that we need every fan we can get, even on HCH. Use signatures as another perk?
There's the 90/10 rule where 10% of the poasters are responsible for 90% of the poasts. This site is great when the BDTW guys are around, beefs between posters get brought up, etc. It's why I'd welcome Chest and Sven back -- more content = better site, dooging or not. Sven knows he's a bitch but he's OUR bitch. As an aside, possibly create more badges to show:
Moderators
Power (bottom) users like a lot of the recruitnik guys
Race - he's an institution. Story tim with Uncle Race is my favorite, DFI, etc.

Advertising sounds good in theory but this place will live or die based on the community. Might as well start the HCH religion and get some tax exemption, I'm on here praying 10x a day.
There are poasters more annoying than a few ads would be. Get paid if you can, I'd white list my ad-blocker. The behavior standard couldn't change. Not only is it amusing but it's the only defense that keeps the fags away.
I learned how to pronounce Porsche from Adam Corolla. The correct way to say it is Porsche. He needs to hop on with JRE, hey thanks for hopping on.

In this economy where everyone who wants a job has one, and you can't fucking throw Derek 25 bucks a year then you can fuck off. I'll ostracize, ignore any cheap fucker I want just like I do in everyday life. It sounds like it's already having an effect on Salem coog. Pitch in or fuck off is my motto. No excuses.

I appreciate your point here and I think it's valid, but still...$25.00 to chip in once a year to help keep the lights on ain't much. I don't bat an eye when someone with a few hundred posts hasn't chipped in, and we shouldn't peer pressure those guys. However, I think we can all discern who's just being lazy and/or cheap. Those guys need to get some well earned grief.
