Bi-annual Leverguns Community Hosting Drive - 2020 - Final Update

Post by AmBraCol »

Good afternoon!

2020 is quickly coming to a close and the bi-annual forum hosting bill is coming due the first part of January. We're going seven directions at once down here in Coffee Country so figured I'd better get on this ASAP so that it doesn't blindside us in a month.

Hosting and virtual private MySQL server costs - about $550
Funds received over and above that amount will be applied to the domain renewals for the leverguns family of sites.

leverguns.com
leverguns.org
leverguns.info
levergunscommunity.com
levergunscommunity.org

You can send a PayPal to Paul Moreland webservant@sixshootercommunity.com - if you use "Friends and Family" they don't get a dime, 100% goes to the forum hosting drive.

I know, I know! Get off your soap box. Many of you boycott PayPal, that's fine, dandy and admirable. You can send a personal check to:

Paul Moreland
C/O Mark Moreland
1325 Chestnut St.
Webb City, MO 64870

Make it out to: Paul Moreland. Make a note in the Memo area "Leverguns Community" as we are doing the same thing over on the Frontier Sixshooter Community site as well and we want to keep each community's funds separate.

Once the goal is reached I'll delete the address info and lock this thread so it'll slide on down the page.

Thanks to all who help keep this the friendliest and best leverguns related site on the 'net.

I just love using anti-gun Paypal for a pro-gun cause, and Leverguns.com is one of my favorite websites. I appreciate all that you do! :D

No problem
It's the least I can do for the support you guys have shown me.

BTW,
I know this is politics. But if any of you can find away to send some support to the Georgia Senate GOP candidates please do it.
If we lose the senate things are going to get bad for gun rights.

Steve -

I did this on 12/30. Send money to both David and Kelly. I've rarely contributed to campaigns outside of my state (other than the Presidential ones), but as you said, if we lose the Senate, it is going to get bad... on so many fronts.

I also have no doubt the Dem's will cheat like mad on these elections too... just like they did in November. :evil:

Good morning, folks!

What a whirlwind we've had around here the past couple of months. I've been busier than a one armed paper hanger with a dollar watch and the seven year itch, but finally got time to do an update on the state of the forum drive.

Received to date $790.67
Hosting -$214.80
Private SQL Server -360.00
Domain Transfers/Renewals -61.83

Cash on hand: $154.04


I'm switching registrars for the domains linked to the forum, once that resolves we'll renew them to the extent that available funds allow.

That is the state of the forum hosting drive today, 13 January of 2021.

OK. Here's how accounts stand as I finished up today:

Date: Description: Amount: Running total:
2020-12-02 Received to date $790.67 $790.67
2020-01-05 Hosting -$214.80 $575.87
2021-01-13 Private SQL Server -$360.00 $215.87
Domain Transfers/Renewals -$61.83 $154.04
2021-01-21 David Fagan -$154.04 $0.00


Note: All the domains are renewed for 8-9 years. Our hosting is up to date for two years. We have funds for the private SQL server (what the forum actually runs on) for two years. We had a balance of $154.04 which I sent to David Fagan. He's never asked for it, but he's pulled our chestnuts out of the fire many times so the least we can do is let him know how much he's appreciated.

So there's the final report on the Forum Hosting for 2021-22.

Thank you all who have contributed financially to help us keep the lights on here without appealing to adware and the tyranny of Politically Correct ad managers.

I wish I could have helped this time. Being out of a job for 6 months has curtailed my spending. As far as sending some to David, that sounds quite fair. He probably deserves a lot more than that.
Thank you!!! to all of you who are keeping this place up and running.
