    Where on Earth did you get that from?! Patreon charge 5%. There are then fees per International transaction, depending on which payment method you use. They do want you to declare all your income to the tax man, though!

    2.9% + 30 cents in the US. 3.9% + a fee based on where the currency received from International users.

    Well, look at the current patreon. Looks like somebody pledged $10 and somebody pledged $100, yet the total amount kevin is going to receive is $99.

    Maybe I'm looking at is wrong?

    Search me! I threw my $100 at the PayPal button on the sidebar. I haven't signed up for the old patreon yet. Plus I was hoping @ASSEMbler might read the note attached :) Also why are there two Assemblers? Who is Assembler EX?

    I think whatever option is chosen there will be stupid fee's.

    When you convert other forum databases with XenForo you need to setup XenForo first with an admin account, then import old data. Can be annoying on larger sites I had that before. That or Assembler hasn't given full right's to his second account for security reasons.

    Where are you getting that from? It says 1 person has donated $9, the total is $9 of $598 and 0 people have given a $100 pledge.

    I will have to overhaul the donation system and make it better, problem is xenforo doesn't have the huge variety of mods like vbb did (yet).
    Almost all mods are for $ with xenforo.
