Since January 2020, that revenue stream has completely dried up and even cost me some as I had to refund the cruises that were not delivered.

I am trying to have something going on, but in the fucking God forsaken country I live in, there isn’t much but the the small shitty town I am in, it is even worse. When business is good I can scrape about 500 euros per months. So, 89 euros is killing me. Until now, I tried to keep it up, but all the savings have been gone for a while now and I just can’t manage it right now. I am ok to pay for another month, even if it is stretching it. But not more.

I have decided on epik. They seem to be the best choice for our line of thinking. Ar15 moved there, Parler also for their domain name. It would be a good move for us. The domain should be 8.99 the first year. I don’t know for the ones after yet. Af for the hosting the more we commit, the less it costs. 9.99 per month on a monthly basis isn’t a bad start.

@SKSseven offered to send me some cash, but there is another problem. I sold a few guns recently and got the payments on my US bank account. My CC expired a year ago and after 3 attempts to have it sent here, it never arrived. So I cannot use the cash I still have there and any sent to me would end up in the same situation.

I have to find a way for you guys to sent money to @SKSseven so he can use his card. Now that I know where to go, I have to setup something. Still don’t know what. Chris may even be able to shell it up and have you pay him back somehow.

Worse case scenario, I pay for another month here, but I am trying to have t done this week.

What a fucked up world we live in today,
Damn man, sorry to hear all of that. Thanks for keeping it going so long on your own. I pray you get some kind of income going soon.

Maybe after the server move is taken care of we can get some kind of permanent donation link added to the site, so people can donate whenever they want. With all the payment options available out there now, you'd think there has to be something that works for this, right?

That's a good idea. And, perhaps a suggestion that people who have made good deals on b/s/t make a contribution in the way of a reasonable commission. I know I've done some good deals, both ways, which will positively impact my donation when the mechanism is set up.

I wasn’t ready for the move, so I paid for the server another month. Gives me time to finalize everything.

We're here for you.
I would guess that NONE of us knew that you were personally paying for the hosting.
(well, at least, I didn't)

Thank you for carrying this site up to now.

I am not paying for FSN only. It is my server for other things like my cruises. I had space for FSN. I don’t want you guys to think that it was 100% FSN.
