you could end all those speculations by just listing the donation publicly. In fact, that is the purpose of publicly listing them, so speculations like that don't happen.

Hmm...So sad.
I once made a topic called "Support to emu" or something similar. But the topic got deleted, because folks thought I was scamming people. So, I'm telling the same story again: If you don't have any money and you still want to support the emu, I have a solution. All you need to do is to download one toolbar(made by me) and use it. It is so simple. And now you ask: How this gets money to emu? Here is the answer: I get money when people uses my toolbar. Every search they make. That is not much/person, but if 2500 users would download it and make 200 searches/day (what takes less than 20 minutes) it would generate ca. $2000/month. And then I would donate most of it to the emu. You may think this is scam, but what do you have to lose? Exept SWGEmu, if you don't donate or use my toolbar. I have seen many users who say: "I would like to support the emu, but I don't have any money to donate." So here is a way to help emu, without using your own money. So here is question for Devs: Can I post link to my toolbar to let people download it? Ps. If you don't believe I'm gonna donate most of the money to you, you can ban my account and do whatever you like. That serious I am. What do you have to lose? Merry Xmas to all. And lets hope Emu gets enough donates that devs don't have to pay fees for them own money. Cause thats not fair...

That's the only time anyone has ever taken anything out of the donations. *shrug*

We aren't requesting money to continue developing. We can continue developing without the test center. But how do you expect to efficiently test an MMO server as complex as SWG with 500+ users on a 5mbit home cable connection? Without the test center, things don't get fixed because there's no way to test things correctly. And we've told people how much the server costs are 10 hundred trillion billion times. Do some research before posting a smartass reply like that.

Exept in this case it is not a scam. But I don't force you to believe me...

just post the donations. And then add some detail to your spendings. As another person in this thread referred to, there should be transparency when it comes to donations.

not saying there's no chance your intentions are good, only that asking strangers to believe you is a classic scam. Try to find some way for the money to be auto transferred by a third party.

All the people that say they cannot afford it... common... almost everyone in the western world is able to donate like 5 dollar. 5 dollar is 2 freaking beers at the pub. So put up or shut up.
Donated 10 dollars and do not expect anything in return but I would appreciate a bit more updates on the progress. |

Add some detail to the spendings? Are you freaking blind? WE SPEND THE SAME MONEY EVERY MONTH. IT'S BEEN THE SAME FOR THE LAST YEAR. If you don't like to donate then don't donate. It's called DONATE for a reason. When the little girl guides come to your house to sell cookies do you ask them for DNA scans, fingerprint scans, retina scans, and a detailed log on their entire history in the girl guides including all of the badges that they have earned? No. I don't feel like going through 5 billion transaction logs and removing peoples name's from them. Contrary to popular belief, people don't want their names posted on the interwebs. So again, if you don't like it, you don't have to be here.

as an old member of the greatest german guild in swg europe chimaera
i would like to say that i cant use this donation thing from the swgemu site. transfering money from an german bank to an american or what ever in the world isnt that easy and so there is a need of the bank information where to pay the money. otherway i could send 1€(1.43$ atm and still getting more:P ) i realy would like to help keeping this all up because i loved swg so when everyone just donate 1buck a month i think that would help a bit.

Once again, it wasn't a threat. It's reality. Things cost money. Believe me, we didn't want to post this thread because of people like you/posts like yours. We've explained the server costs -- Test Center is $200/month. Website is around $30 a month, IRC is $10, and very soon we'll run out of space on Assembla and be forced to pay another $30 a month. This stuff isn't cheap. We're just asking for a little help with it all. No one is forcing you to donate, no one is threatening anything. We are just telling you the reality of this all. I certainly wish that it wasn't necessary, but us being called thieves, scammers, etc really gets under my skin. So if you have the need to call us it feel free to do it somewhere else, this really, really isn't the place. This is the last argumentative post that will be here. Like i said, this isn't the place to post your little conspiracy theories regarding swgemu. If you don't want to donate then don't. That's fine, as ultyma said, that's why it is called a donation. We aren't demanding payment. I've said it before, we're fine paying as much as we can out of our own pockets, but we won't be able to do that forever. Thanks again to all who have donated -- If you feel the need to flame us or whatever in here, be warned you're wasting your time. I'm just going to delete it. @biophilia - You're starting to run dry man. If you don't feel safe donating to us that is fine. Don't. Quit filling up this thread with nonsense.

First you said:
Then you said: Quote:
To the other people who want full disclosure of the books, guys please. It's called a donation for a reason. When I send my check to the National MS society every year, I don't ask for disclosure. I support their cause in the one way I can, just as I do here, and then I let them do their jobs. If you don't trust where the money is going, or if you don't trust what it's being used for... don't donate. They've given you a brief list of their monthly bills, if you want to help with those bills... then donate. |

That is a custom script as far as I know. I've already contacted Kitek this morning. If he can give it to me then I will be happy to put it up.
