@amirm you should enable some not too offensive generic ad on your website to help cover the cost of running ASR. So long these ads don't affect review outcome, I think most member will be OK with it.
Why?That would be my last day on the job.
Why?
Yeah yeah blah blah. How do I get the cup??I think it would change the very nature of the place.
I know how reluctant our host is to encourage anything but voluntary donations from those who can see enough value to reach into their own pockets to help support 'the cause'.
He has rejected the idea of sponsored links, or even promoting the line of 'bling,' from sweatshirts to mugs he has because he just doesn't want to even appear on any level to be grubbing for cash. How many even know they could get an ASR mug?

I honestly hope he is making a mountain of money from this site, as I believe he has added a lot of value to this industry and has saved a lot of people a lot of money.
But, if advertising entered that loop somehow, I would feel like the part I signed up to play (this is a volunteer job for Adam and me for anyone who doesn't realize that) would be better played by someone else.
I don't see it ever happening, but since you asked.
nice cup...
Yeah yeah blah blah. How do I get the cup??

@amirm , have you still got that link? Sorry boss... He asked.
How about you make your donation and just name the person here?I read through first 5 pages of the thread and have a question not answered by at least page 5—decided to just ask instead—is there a way to make a donation specifically to recognize a member who has gone above the “call of duty”? I’m new to the forum, and have received invaluable help through a thread and private messages, and would like to acknowledge him specifically. Not to say others have not been very helpful, but this was exemplary.
Seems you had PayPal issues, but fixed by page 5, so ok to do it that way now?
Paypal is working now so no issues there. As to rewarding others, we don't have a mechanism for that. You are of course welcome to send money to helpful member Contact them to get their email address and send them the money. Note that some of our great members refuse to even accept special titles from me so may refuse to accept such.I read through first 5 pages of the thread and have a question not answered by at least page 5—decided to just ask instead—is there a way to make a donation specifically to recognize a member who has gone above the “call of duty”?

got my cup... it was delivered quickly - and wasn't broken...
Already did the donation. Maybe better not to single one person out since many have now been helpful?How about you make your donation and just name the person here?
We will then acknowledge their contribution, which you may or may not describe in detail, with a few warm words of our own.
Donation already done. I did offer that member, but would not accept.Paypal is working now so no issues there. As to rewarding others, we don't have a mechanism for that.
