I almost donated but...

[Klingon]

the beginning of the month I almost was gonna donate some money to the forum but when I went to do so, it would'nt let me use anything but paypal! which I don't have nor do I have any intention of getting. if the forum had other ways to donate like regular bank cards, credit cards. I would certainly donate money to the forum! perhaps in the future this will change and more options will become available to donate.

I have donated before without using paypal, so it certainly used to be possible to do so (I donated by credit card, although of course, the system may have changed since then).

I don't think there is anything insecure or risky about getting Paypal, however it is your own decision whether you use it, of course.

But apart from that, a donations system which is very restrictive about how you pay is not great. It's in the forum's interest to make it easy to donate - I don't know if @PuddinPop can change this?
