MetaChat Fund Drive The web hosting for MetaChat is coming up for renewal, so we are running a fundraiser to help pay to keep MetaChat online for another year.→[More:]

Our hosting at RimuHosting costs $49.95/month, so we are aiming to raise $600 to keep the server online until July 2011. All contributions will be very gratefully received.

Hopefully this should go without saying, but this is an entirely voluntary fundraiser and donations are anonymous -- if you're unable to, or don't feel like contributing, then that is totally cool too.

Big thanks to everyone for making this a great place to be, and special whuffles for our team of mods who keep things ticking along so nicely. MetaChat rocks, and that's thanks to all of you.

Finally, in the grand tradition, please post sparkly GIFs in this thread.

I would love to kick in some money but I have never been able to get PayPal to work for me. Is there any other way?

Please post a reminder occasionally as I won't be able to contribute until I find out (hopefully by Friday) how much my prescriptions will cost this month. I am afraid if you sidebar it, I will not notice.

I get paid on Thursday, so another vote for the plz to be reminding.

It's up to 71% already!

I think it was the power of the Pattinson that did it, to be honest. I take full credit for that.

Update the tally! I'm tired of 71%!

Sorry for my tardiness in replying and updating the fund-o-meter, I've been swamped these last couple of days... by super-generous donations! (And sparkly GIFs!) We've just tipped over our funding target of $600. Thank you all!
