Title: Donations. Where to send? Post by: sprfrkr on December 17, 2008, 03:09:11 PM I'd like to help out the cause but can't find any paypal donate buttons or any other means to chip in some spare change.
TIA, sprfrkr Title: Re: Donations. Where to send? Post by: Cacatoes on December 17, 2008, 04:37:32 PM Hello,
You're not the first to try :D http://openarena.ws/board/index.php?topic=2094.0 Title: Re: Donations. Where to send? Post by: sprfrkr on December 17, 2008, 07:27:12 PM That's weird. I'm a dev, but can't devote time to the project so I thought I would help ensure that these guys have incentive to continue the work they have done already. I also wanted to speak to them about doing a related project and wanted to show that I was serious about committing some resources to it by providing an initial donation.
I'd appreciate it if the admin/project lead touched base with me on the above. Thanks. s Title: Re: Donations. Where to send? Post by: fufinha on December 17, 2008, 07:37:29 PM Yes it is weird but not highly important for OA i figure.
After time you just get used to it :D In fact, the OA main page is one of the few pages that will display instantly on a web browser regardless of your connection status. Me has a 33.6k connection, I notice these things :D Title: Re: Donations. Where to send?

btw, the proper reply to that is, "I am serious, and don't call me Shirley." :) Title: Re: Donations. Where to send?

Well missbehaving, it looks like you are a forum MVP- please put in a good word and a request from me to be contacted by the project admin if you could. I couldn't pm them due to being a new member.
I have $ burning a hole in my pocket :) Title: Re: Donations. Where to send? Post by: fufinha on December 17, 2008, 08:56:01 PM it looks like you are a forum MVP you will never be a respectable member. You just failed, big time :D Title: Re: Donations. Where to send?
