• In case most of you have not noticed, I made changes to the donation amounts as well as the durations for all of the paid membership levels. Things are winding down here, and this seems to be the most prudent way to deal with the "end of life" period of this site.

    Contributor level members - $10 per 30 days

New Year's Resolutions for the BOI:

************SMACK !!*************

Wes you are the Mighty God of Hell and War and I bow before your greatness and all, but we are trying to raise a few quid here for Fauna.

I know, you could sponsor Hell !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D
 
Lucille and Mike,

I just became a contributing member thanks to this post and you two. I had been wondering how to become one and the link Lucille provided made it a snap. I'll have the satisfaction knowing that I helped contribute in a little way to this site, hugs from Lucille and now I'll have the nifty seal too. :dancer01:
 
Thanks David. This will come in handy, because I am getting ready to sign on the dotted line for an upgraded server. Faster processors, faster hard drive (actually adding another drive as well), and more memory. Hopefully that will curtail the loading problems we've been having here for a little while.

But you all know what that means, don't you?

SERVER MOVE!!!
:detonate:

ummm, it's not showing yet? Hey Rich, BFH fixes everything, ya know! LOL

Yeah, but I don't use hammers. Not when I have guns. So I use BFGs... :hehe:
 
Here's a big hug for David:

(((((((((((((((((hug smooch)))))))))))))) :D

and Katrina, I sent you points and here is a sweet demure hug for you:

(((((((((((((((((Katrina)))))))))))))))))))))

David I sent you points recently, will send more soon:
Webslave, is there a way I can just give points without waiting, I promise not to abuse the privilege......but I want to reward these guys somehow.....
 
my 2 cents..

I went ahead and became a contributing member as well since it seems like the right thing to do. I like the site very much and beleive it serves a great purpose to those in this hobby.
I had a thought. I have been bidding on several items on EBAY that benefit the people affected in the tsunami. What if people that want to support Fauna could list or donate something to auction on ebay and have a paypal link on the auction going to Rich. What better way to raise money for Rich to upgrade the site. People could auction off anything they didnt want anymore and we would have a bigger and better site to enjoy. ( not to mention helping out Webslaves retirement fund :hehe: )
I am not a genious but sometimes I have good ideas.:dunce:
 
(((((((((((((nicolai))))))))))) Thank you for supporting Fauna.....

Thanks Lucille ;). I was just talking about becoming a contributing member the other day but I didn't know how to go about it. Then I happened to come across your thread with the link. It was like it was meant to be. Maybe I should talk about me winning the lottery next.

You know, I have been hearing this more times then I would have thought. Anyone can find the path to become a contributor, as well as a forum sponsor by simply clicking on the User CP link in the menu bar right below the section at the top of the screen that shows you the path to where you are now located. In the right hand section of this area you will see the message Welcome, *yourname*. Simply click on that, then in the next screen, within the Control Panel pane on the left of the screen, select the menu option that says Paid Subscriptions.

I intend on making this a LOT easier to find by simply making the Contributors icon a direct link to the Paid Subscriptions page. I actually used to have it that way, but it got dropped in the upgrade to this latest version of the message board software.

Anyway, thanks everyone, for thinking of me. Sometimes you all really make me feel guilty for the MANY times I have felt like throwing my hands in the air, screaming like a demented chicken, and pulling the plug on this site. :nuts:
 
I'm relatively new to the site, as I am just getting back into reptiles again after about 6yrs away. still lotsa info, though it may be a bit dusty and outdated - and will toss in my 2 cents worth as I see the chance. LOVE the site, happy to contribute. with a little luck, will have a variety of babies for sale this year - find'em here!!

There seems to be quite a few more BOLDED names when you go to the section at the bottom where it shows the active users over the past 24 hours. I think it would be great if it were reversed and there were more contributers than non-contributers. This way we can avoid Webslave doing the Chicken dance. :dancer01:

Thank you for joining, Harald, you are terrific!


Webslave, oh no, now you have started it. In order to make sure you don't commit Faunacide, not only will all of us have to become CONTRIBUTING MEMBERS, we will also have to follow you around and tell you chicken jokes for YEARS to remind you of this post. LOL.

As promised - Reputation points for Nicolai and Harald have been awarded.

Thank you both for supporting Fauna.
It looks like we got a some life kicked back into this thread yesterday.

Keep em' coming everybody.
