Well, I tried to pay through both paypal and through card direct and received an unable to log in through Paypal and error paying on the credit card.  There's no real error message/code to send so I'll just hang around a bit until you guys have that figured out.

Surly is a 501 (C) (3) tax deductible organization.....right?  Your answer will determine the size of my donation!!

If i were running this fiesta, i would not go anywhere near 501c3 status because the IRS quarterly reporting requirements are a massive pain in the posterior.   Absolutely not worth it at all.

All of these fuckers trying to pay for Surly with $.18 left on their Best Buy gift card.

don't know if it has been decided or not for subscription only or ad based business model but I thought this was relevant.  It speaks to the issues we are having in the Cloak Room with socks/trolls and in general.  People should have to pay for usage.

Thanks.  I had to search for “Surly” in my mail because it’s not showing up otherwise...

Alrighty gang thanks SO much for the support and literally putting your $ where your mouth is. 

Currently with the subscribers just on their 1st month and the one time donations totaling about 3800 we have achieved and exceeded our donations goal for all costs covered through Jan 1 of this year. That means definitely no ads during football season and we are well on our way to just running completely on donations. There's a few things in the works as far as cool original content we plan on doing so keep a lookout. 

Subscription numbers are broken down below as of now.

27 Treefiddy Monthly $3.50
3 Double Treefiddy Monthly $7
0 Quad Treefiddy Monthly $14
0 Sep Treefiddy Monthly $21
2 Treefiddy - one time Monthly $3.50
19 Treefiddy Annual $42
9 Double Treefiddy Annual $84
1 Quad Treefiddy Annual $168
2 Passionate Newsletter Subscriber Monthly $9.95
4 Deca Treefiddy Annual $350+

 

We also had some big dick donations that came through by some members of the Deca Treefiddy club in ADDITION to subscribing at a crazy level. Thank you again for all the support.
