September 30, 20196 yr Donate? And what do I get if I do donate? I pay a lot of money for my website and no one helps me with funds. I don't get it? Cheers
September 30, 20196 yr RP, Just a quick point ... Please note I speak from a paucity of knowledge of you, your website and your activities. I have not donated to your website because I have no idea what you are offering to the Flight Sim community. My experience is that most of the people who do, in all honesty, very politely, request a donation, offer to the community freeware or at the very least some very good advice. I am not saying that each and every one, asking for donations, actually deserve a modest sum, if anything at all, but at least most of them offer something without a guaranteed recompense. They probably do deserve some support, so yes, "really" Regards Tony Tony Chilcott. My System. Motherboard. ASRock Taichi X570 CPU Ryzen 9 3900x (not yet overclocked).

September 30, 20196 yr Your not answering my question. What do I get if I donate? I am all about ME, period. If I give out money, I want something back.

Cheers If you don't consider the bandwidth, general stability, a huge library of freeware, and the content of AVSIM being worth a donation then I don't know what to tell you. Running a website the size of AVSIM is no cheap GoDaddy operation and donations help offset the out of pocket expenses our owners pay to keep the site up and maintained. There are also expenses such as the new server drive we had to purchase last year. Our funding drive was exceptional as our member support was outstanding in their generosity. You are not forced to donate, however. You can enjoy all the benefits we have to offer and it doesn't cost you one cent. Some of us choose to do so as we feel we are helping support the premier flight simming website in the world. 40 minutes ago, leon310 said: Your not answering my question. What do I get if I donate?
