Yes, I'll donate a few dollars to the server costs on a monthly basis
it was my personal opinion. If 20 members pay 9 dollars/month or 40 member 4,5 dollar/month, that's great.
And I think Elias have been very unselfish to fund this forum mostly by himself.

They are by nature curious of other cultures and other people (especially older generations and those who come from more rural areas), but they have a sense of superiority of moral, i.e. everything that is against their moral is viewed at as "primitive" or "degrading". They have no problem with people dating several times, not even with having several sex partners but the idea of polygamy is viewed at as "degrading towards women". They are too careful with their political opinions too, as they seem to go into cardiac arrest if they are called "homophobe", "racist" or "intolerant".

Personally I am quite delighted. Sure, this forum have interesting stuff and have learned me a lot, but that can be found in other places too. News sites, genetics blogs, other sites.
What..? You are delighted that ABF may shut down..?

I've been thinking about stricter rules and more mods for a long time. Elias mentioned unserious immature members in his OP.

Janos, dont like it here ? close ur account and GTFO. We will gladly pay for the site.
ok, so it will survive, just as my account.
Elias I have a question. Does it cost more the bigger the forum is? You said it was 99 dollar/month before hardware upgrades. was it because of the Server busy error occuring much?
If you'd cut some of the stuff on this forum maybe the prize would be lower?
My 2 cents.

A bit harsh move Elias, isn't? The forum has almost 500 active members daily. Most of these people dedicated to the philosophy forum twelves.
I can donate money, no problem, but this was never requested. Although I am not daily active anymore, a liitle bit busy and also a bit tired of 'anthro/race' forum.
Still I'd donate, I have friends here and would like to see the community alive.
