Dear VGUnians,

Christmas has been a money-begging time, we managed to break our record in Traffic Usage (from ~2.5 TB to 5+ TB) and sadly only a few people subscribed so far. Skyrims release had, and still has, a bad impact on the Google Adsense Earnings as well.

Right now I am pretty much hanging behind with payments due to several reasons, where I can loan money from my Bank since December, but that's not a good option and I only use it if I really have to (like right now to keep VGU up and running).

I ask for your support to help me cover up the payments.

Required: 0$

(I will update the Required as soon as possible after each donation/donations)

If you like to help us, you can do so by donating via PayPal to: xxdarkslayerxx[AT]hotmail[DOT]com

Greetings,

Maxunit

UPDATE:

We reached our Goal thanks to this awesome Community! I highly appreciate all your support and donations.

Sending what I can,hope it helps.

[Maxunit]

Thank you, Zanga Haze. It helps, even if it is not much.

[Volek]

i am saving money for a new computer and monitor, but i guess i can spare a few bucks

[Corehound]

I'm basically broke this month, but there'll definitely be coming some gold your way next month for sure

Sorry Max, normally I have my finances in order and would have an really easy time sending cash your way, but had some unexpected bills pop'ing up at the end of December, which left wrinkles all the way into this one

I just can say, that only a very few Dollars reached us so far and that it won't really help us :(

Sucks, it really couldn't have come at a worse time

[loismustdie555]

Wish I had some Cash to spare but I'm all out of extra cash this month as well because my Bro's B-Day is this month and I Kinda promised him a new phone :(
I really wish i could help but all I can do is pray for you that you get enough donations. Sorry I can't do more than that :(

BTW, I know it's been a while since the change but I'm really liking the new look, IMO it's much better than the one at the old domain.

Good luck

[dragbody]

I just sent $25. Hopefully some other people will follow my lead.

[Hengebobs]

I wish i could help Max, Lord knows i love the site. Unfortunately my only income right now is my GI Bill, and i haven't gotten a full payment yet, so i'm living off less than a grand a month. If i find work i'll send something your way, i'd rather give you money than a theatre or game shop, i just don't have any to spare. Heh, i don't have enough for my bills as is :(

**I'm actually considering selling a couple of my... my guns.... the HORROR of it all... if i do, and get a decent price i'll send some along for sure**

[GenuWine7]

i don't have a very big presence on this site, but I do love it here. Money is tight right now, but I will send what I can. Please keep us updated on how close we are getting to the goal. I may be able to send more in a little while.

[Aeodan]

I do love this site a lot and I will be sure to see what I can scavenge up to help donate. I'm gonna spread the word to other sites I lurk around that I know some members drop by here time from time to see if anyone else is willing to donate to you guys.

[Maxunit]

We received 50$ by now. Thank you a lot guys, please keep it going. I updated the requirement amount of money.

[Volek]

Hmm, i sent you not $ but €, i hope it arrived.

[StreetFightR]

I can't send you money this month sorry. But I have an idea. You get more money from advertisements is people click on them, right? If you ask if every member if he/she would click on the advertisments on the page. This is an easy way to help get money for VGU.

[Corehound]

Okay I was able to find a bill that I could push into next month instead of this one, gold coming your way Max, hope it helps

And here's some Jawas to try and cheer you up:

[Maxunit]

@ Volek: Yea, you sent in Euro, but I converted it into USD.

@ StreetFightR: I cannot do that. Asking Visitors to click the ads or force them to click them is against the EULA from Google.

@ Corehound: Thank's a lot, buddy

PS: The Jawas rock. Where did you get those?

[Maxunit]

Erm...CoreHound, did you send it in DKK (Danish Crowns)? If yes...Fuck bro, thanks a lot. I corrected the value. Daaaaaaaaamn, bro!

Nps m8ie

This forum has given me more than you'll ever know, so for me it's worth every penny I can spare, so when I saw the amount you are trying to reach, I took an extra hard look at my account

Oh, and the Jawas are actually from the SWTOR forum, I have their emoticon page on my bookmark bar

Thanks for the donation and thanks for the link. Might come in handy when I open the SWTOR Section on VGUNetwork (generally said, the MMO Section)

[IrishEdg3]

Soon as the next part of my college grant comes in I'll send over a few bob!

[loismustdie555]

Off topic question, but where did you get that icon on your steam profile from maxunit? I can't find it anywhere and I wanted to use it's shape as part of something I'm working on.

[BWLGeorge]

I've had a bit many expenses this month and last, so I'm a bit picky right now. As soon as I get my next paycheck in I'll toss over some cash right quick your way, though, no question.

[Sanakan]

Sent over a bit. Can survive that amount

[Skual]

Sorry i cant help ATM , im broke , but if clicking adds helps , i will definetly click them

[dazzerfong]

Are there any ways of donating other than PayPal? I unfortunately don't have a viable bank account to connect with it.

[Takako_sempai]

Matsuda and I will try to send something as soon as we get a chance. We've had a lot of unexpected expenses, but I'm sure we can spare something.

@Dazzerfong If you have some sort of credit card, you can still use Paypal. You don't necessarily have to have a bank account.

[dazzerfong]

@ Takako:

I'm 17, I don't have a credit card.........

[Maxunit]

Sadly I do not know any other Payment options than PayPal right now, since Google Checkout etc are only useable over here with a Credit Card, which I do not own, like dazzerfong.

I'm still checking out other methods.

[Neenja_jenkins]

Just sent some to help out.
Cheers man!
