• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

It is that time of the year again, Bandwidth Drive 2025.

Well we are really late in getting the drive started this year. The good news is we have never needed less than we need this year. SOH needs $3,500 USD ($3,237.84 after fees) to keep the hangar lights on. We are looking for $3,500 to make sure all of the PayPal fees are covered. https://www.paypal.com/us/business/paypal-business-fees

Bad news is we need the bulk of the donations before April 9th 2025.

Cost breakdown:
InMotion Hosting server 1 year renewal $2,879.88 (due in less than 90 days but we can pay as soon as we have it. )
Control Web Panel 1 year renewal $142.89 (due September 4, 2025)
Xenforo Forum Software 1 year renewal $100 (due September 2, 2025)
xf2addons 1 year renewal $35 (due April 29th 2025)
DragonBytes Donation software 1 year renewal $30.07 (Just paid because it expires in early March)
Teamspeak 1 year renewal license $50
PayPal fees. $323.78 (This is hard to get fixed number for but we believe we will need to add around 10% to are total to make sure the fees are covered.)
__________________________________________________________________
Total $3,561.62 (assuming that we need +10% to cover all fees.)

Tried to donate today using the above credit card link and was informed I do not have permission to use it! Well, OK.

Hey Dave, sorry I missed the drive. If something else comes up let me know or you can just bank a little (little being the operative term) in advance. Hat's off to all who gave. (y)
 
Hello Dave,
I apologize for missing the drive. I thought it would be open for a while longer. Today I read the advise to contact you for a way to make a late donation securely. Thank you.

Best Regards,
John
