  • Sorry if this is the wrong place to put this thread but i couldn't think where else it would go.
    I was just wondering why TI aims to have 150$ of donations in a month, what does the money go towards, why should i donate?
    thanks
     
    If you'd donate, you would know. Shane mentioned it in the shoutbox.

    The total costs of TI per month are a little shy of $150 a month (with the Ventrilo, the server, and some site modifications). So, I will take what I can get to help off-set the costs.

    I also didn't know running a site (and vent) like this would be that expensive D:​
     
    Well, it is so expensive because I do not deal with horrid server companies. Yes, if I wanted slow server response times in regards to page loads, then I would opt for something cheaper. I have been using Media Temple dedicated servers for about 8 years now and I will never deal with anyone else. Thus far, we have had 1 problem with TI a couple of days ago when the server was DDOS'd. Other than that, everything has been 100% up.

    Again, the donations are simply a GOAL. No one is requiring anyone to donate :) You can donate simply to help take some of the financial strain off of my back each month!

    Can't u use paying advertisement instead of promoting your own KHA site? Or does it lift eachother ?

    It helps to boost my sales site, which funds this site staying up :)

    Again, the donations are 100% voluntary and just help to take a bit of strain off of me.
