RevTK Donation Drive - kitsu - 2008-12-10

I think I donated not too long ago, but what the hell Big Grin

RevTK Donation Drive - usis35 - 2009-05-16

This virus episode that caused the website to be down for 24hs, reminded me how much time requires to keep a great site like this working.
I am putting a donation for $10 recurring.
Thanks Fabrice!
What is 10 bucks? I have spent uncountable hours learning kanji and reading the forum of this great comunity.

Take a moment to imagine that you wake up, try to visit this forum and ask a question, read current advice and thoughts, look through your past posts and the past wisdom and tips of others in the archives, or head over to the study/story pages, only to find the site is down, Fabrice grew tired of maintaining the project, had Real Life™ occur in a sudden and major way, or couldn't afford the upkeep any longer.

Now, if you have an extra few dollars lying around, think about donating it to Fabrice! ;p

Well I guess I'll be the first to say that nest0r's post made me realize how much I use and love this site, so I gave 10 ero's. My I not be the last person to do so. Lets keep on giveing.

Rock on, wulfgar.

By the way Fabrice, you need to add stuff to your Amazon wishlist or something. ^_^ Also, I really had to work to get your email (hope I got the right one).

Is there any way of sending donations without having a credit card or Paypal account?

RevTK Donation Drive - Anna B - 2010-09-03

Good call, Nest0r. My ISP was down for 12 hours recently and it did get me thinking about how much I'd miss this site if it were gone. And when I think of the money I've spent on considerably less useful study materials, a koohi.com donation's a no-brainer.

@Sebastian, you could contact Fabrice via the link on the bottom of the DONATE page.

And thanks again, Fabrice.

You could always buy a Visa gift card at a local store, then use it to buy Fabrice a gift card at Amazon or something (you can send it electronically to his email address, which you can find with some Googling but I'm not sure he'd want me to post here so I shan't). PayPal lets you do donations without an account, but not sure if they accept Visa gift cards.

hehe, It was after blowing money on some useless stuff that I was like 'Damn it, what am I doing, send some love to Fabs.'

I recently canceled my $15 Experian credit monitoring subscription (it was prep for buying a house I never bought) and started a paypal subscription for Fabrice in the same amount.

I second this.

I'm a bit poor atm, so I just sent €3.50 :/
But I wanted to donate something! I hope more people are encouraged to from this thread ＾＿＾

Awesome, I am sure he will like the monthly donation way.

RevTK Donation Drive - nest0r - 2010-09-05

Well done, a little more and Fabrice can surely buy a mountainside meditation chamber in India. ^_^

@nestOr: not yet! Smile

Thank you guys!

Yes, the recurring donation (which you can cancel yourself at any time), is helpful because it's more predictable for me. Anything from 5$ is helpful. You can donate less but PayPal takes a greater portion then, so in that case it may be better to use the standard donation.

I prefer not to receive Amazon gift cards because Amazon.com incurs higher shipping costs. But I realized I could buy music online too on Amazon so that will work for Amazon.com. I will update the Amazon UK Wishlist and remove the US one. The UK Wishlist was working well enough, and shipping costs are lower. Otherwise cash donations are best as I am basically on my own expenses now.

Will update the donate page with a contact link for people who want to make a European ban transfer; should be free of charge within Europe.

I have a ridiculously small rent while I stay with my father, so I need not generate that much money to be sustainable. I'm determined to make positive cash flow with my projects before my bank runs out (about a year maximum).

I'm working everyday on the site now. Bugfix update coming soon.

Yeah I sent the gift card because Paypal didn't like my card for some reason. You can always buy something that results in 'Free Super Saver Shipping', if not music/Kindle books.

Speaking of Amazon UK, I always get my books from them even though it's out-of-country, they tend to get releases I want faster, and have better cover art (not that ugly portraiture the Americans are so fond of).

Yay! Hurrah for Fabrice!
