Posted February 17, 200916 yr Hello faithful UrbanOhio users. The time has come for us to ask the people who make this site what it is for help. Our advertising revenue has went through the floor lately and as brought in far less than in pass months. To help keep things as is and to plan for the future, we are asking whoever can donate to do so. Our new server costs more than the old but offers a far better experience. The money that is received will be spent on hosting, bumper stickers, t-shirts, equipment, gas, etc. The more money we receive, the more options we can look at in the future for the site. Please only donate if your able to. You can go directly to http://www.paypal.com and send payment to admin AT urbanohio.com Thank you.
February 18, 200916 yr I forgot my paypal password. Can I just give a check to ColDay if/when I come down to Dayton someday if/when ColDay comes up to do a Chicago trip?
February 18, 200916 yr Ummm, bumper stickers and tshirts? To date I have mailed about 200 bumper stickers to people across the country. They cost us $2 a piece plus postage and envelopes. Once we get a good tshirt design I would like to give them out free or very cheap. If you dont want to help or cant help we understand. For those who do we are very grateful for the support.
February 18, 200916 yr Ummm, bumper stickers and tshirts? ColDayMan has an obsession with "Don't laugh it's paid for" bumper stickers.

February 18, 200916 yr WATCH IT!!! "You don't just walk into a bar and mix it up by calling a girl fat" - buildingcincinnati speaking about new forumers
February 18, 200916 yr This means that my hooker-a-night from Washington Park obsession will be waning.
February 19, 200916 yr You can have an ad as my avatar if you want. 327, brought to you by Bisquick and Mail Pouch. Chew some today.
February 19, 200916 yr Hayward, they will gladly send you a reminder if you've forgotten! Oh I know, I get some much garbage from them everyday. But I have three accounts there already and have already forgotten the password, even with the hints and what not. Their restrictions on passwords are so complicated, they are difficult to remember.
February 19, 200916 yr Yes, thank you all! This website is supported by the best people (meaning, you all)! "You don't just walk into a bar and mix it up by calling a girl fat" - buildingcincinnati speaking about new forumers
February 19, 200916 yr Another UOian has donated a prize so now there will be TWO prizes. The two top donors will get hooked up!
February 19, 200916 yr I have a similar paypal problem, is there an alternative method? Can I mail something somewhere?
February 19, 200916 yr Another UOian has donated a prize so now there will be TWO prizes. The two top donors will get hooked up! is one of them a "don't laugh it's paid for" bumper sticker? :lol:

February 19, 200916 yr We've had 8 donations so far. That's all? In almost 2 full days? Let's go people!
February 19, 200916 yr You are soooooooooooooooooo stupid! Now you sound like my wife.... Sorry Dude! Man hug - fist bump! Now man up and show the wench who wears the pants in your castle!
February 21, 200916 yr Urbanohio just got a donation from me. And remember kids, for each urbanohio forumer who pledges me in my Central Ohio Diabetes Association Swim for Diabetes Fundraiser, I'll donate $5 to Urban Ohio. Full details: http://www.urbanohio.com/forum2/index.php/topic,11894.msg370103.html#msg370103 So far DanB and AJ93 have ponied up. Let's do the math: DanB donates to koow's diabetes swim - $5 koow reciprocal donation to Urbanonio AJ93 donates to koow's diabetes swim - $5 koow reciprocal donation to Urbanohio See a pattern here? That's $10 so far for Urbanohio from kingfish for you helping your neighbors with diabetes. Sound good? You bet it does. Keep it real. Keep it coming. Donate here. Donate now. https://www.kintera.org/faf/donorReg/donorPledge.asp?ievent=300345&lis=0&kntae300345=3073F4EA11034B76A44DC07E956897AD&supId=163164349 Support two great Ohio institutions with one simple donation (and don't be afraid to double-give to Urbanohio--seriously).
February 22, 200916 yr And ColDayMan is in for a Hamilton. That kicks koow's reciprocal donation to urbanohio to 15 big ones. Keep it coming ladies. Keep it coming... https://www.kintera.org/faf/donorReg/donorPledge.asp?ievent=300345&lis=0&kntae300345=3073F4EA11034B76A44DC07E956897AD&supId=163164349
February 22, 200916 yr 13? That's pathetic. Make that 14. Don't you folks remember jonesing when Urban Ohio went off-line in December 2007? It looked like it was going to be the worst Christmas ever! It isn't how much you give as much as making the effort. If only 25% of regular reading and posting members gave a little, it would make a huge difference. There's no reason for the folks that spend all the time maintaining the site, upgrading it, and backing it up to be footing the bill. Let's kick in.
February 22, 200916 yr I think a "Supporting Member" tag on the status for supporting members would be nice. It's surprising the effect that has on members that should contribute but don't. Don't do amount levels, just tag the ones that do (even if it's just a dollar). 200 members kicking in just a buck is $200 dollars better than them not. Just my 2 cents.
February 22, 200916 yr Thank youy Alabama ExPat and everybody else for donating! "You don't just walk into a bar and mix it up by calling a girl fat" - buildingcincinnati speaking about new forumers

I'll try to add this tomorrow. The tough part is I don't know everyone's real name so I can add it. Also, a few want to remain anonymous.
February 23, 200916 yr A Urbanohio Supporting Member group has been created. If you've donated and would like to be added to this group please either request to be added to it in your profile or send me a pm. Thanks
February 23, 200916 yr Donated.. And suddenly my self esteem has sykrocketed. Do it kids! It's good for your health.
February 24, 200916 yr When I get my tax return, which should be within the first week of March, I will donate. I wish I could right now, but I just don't have the money.
February 26, 200916 yr I gave what I could. Things are a little tight right now. I'll try and help some more down the road when times get better.
February 26, 200916 yr I will continue my in-kind contributions this year as there is no money for me to donate at least not until I start my full-time job.
February 27, 200916 yr We're up to 18 donations! If you've donated and would like to be added to the UO Supporting Member group, please pm me. This group will now be able to view the site with no ads!! Thanks again to everyone who has donated. Your generous contributions are appreciated.
March 1, 200916 yr I've added everyone who has donated to the UO Supporting Member group. There were two who donated but I couldn't match their email addresses up with an account. So please let me know if I missed you.
March 1, 200916 yr It's on the forum. Look for UO Supporting Member under your member name. Right now, the only benefit is no ads, but I'm going to add a few other perks.
March 3, 200916 yr Thanks for the upgrade, but this is certainly going to suck the fun out of the "Fun with Google Adsense" thread :-(
March 3, 200916 yr Just sent a few ducketts your way, much thanks for the great job all of you admin's and moderators do.
