Perhaps if the needs were known, you could have investors keep the site running.
How much money we talking here?

We're not looking for investors. We just merely need the necessary funds to upgrade the site and continue to offer membership for free.o4phish20o wrote:Perhaps if the needs were known, you could have investors keep the site running.

I hope you don't need much money then.... if you need a few grand or more from someone, you better be offering up some sort of Mod Privileges, lifetime non-ban status, extra site features, etc. Like any GoFundMe venture, you gotta give something to those who contribute.aahnutz wrote:We're not looking for investors.

We're not looking for investors, we just need people to invest money in the site. J/K, I get the difference, but when someone like phish420 asks How much, you should jump at the chance!!aahnutz wrote:We're not looking for investors.

We just merely need to know how much and what for and I bet your funds issue would be solved within a week.aahnutz wrote:We just merely need the necessary funds to upgrade the site and continue to offer membership for free.
I don't really get what's so funny about it. The site needs money and like you said are not open about the needs.earlgreytoast wrote:We're not looking for investors, we just need people to invest money in the site.

The lack of transparency bugs me. The fact that EB is a not-for-profit and not a non-profit bugs me. That's why I stopped donating cash and only do the eBay thing and help with the database when I can. Why are you guys so reticent about giving hard numbers? And is this really just a case where if we throw money at these problems, all would be perfect within days or weeks?
I think some of us, myself included, overlooked this very important fact. Even though these issues have been going on for months and months, it sounds like the people who run the site still don't actually know what needs to be done or how much it would cost. They can't tell us what they need because they literally don't know. All they know at this point is that revenue is down and it needs to come up.aahnutz wrote:We have been in active talks about what is needed to upgrade the site and how much it will cost.
