Server to be shut down

Donated 20.

Good luck, Assembler!

 

Just donated. Would have done so sooner, but I just saw the thread.

ASSEMbler: Definitely make sure to respond to the DMCA notification as soon as you have the license. Also, if they are trying to get you to pay significant penalties and you can track down the person whom you paid to do the website (name and address are typically all you need to give proper notification), you should consider taking legal action. Alternatively, if this person has a design business, you may be able to forego any penalties by alerting the copyright holder to a potential "bigger fish".

 

sadly im broke so i cant dontate money at this time, i wish you the best of luck and hopefully things will be fine.

 

~$50 sent, think it ended up being $48.25 or something post exchange rate.

 

why not keep the money in a pool for emergencys like this or maybe the monthly payment for the server instead of a t-shirt

btw. are planning to bring back your old museum i really liked that

 

I will see what I can tonight.
I have my paypal account went belly up along with ebay seller account.
I just need to remember the password for my backup Paypal account that I created for such occasion...

 

yeah also think that sounds better.. always good to have a backup plan

 

How much more do you need? I may be able to give some.

 

I would donate, but I'm out of a job as of Friday and I'm broke. I wish you the best of luck, though.

Edit: I found $2.50something in my Paypal account, so I sent that. It doesn't make much of a dent, but I wanted to help somehow...

 

I don't have much spare cash right now, but I sent along $5.

 

20$ has been sent. Hope you guys get everything straightened out soon. Good luck.

i dont have a payapl but my roomate does,so as soon as he gets home from work ill send something!

 

I'm pretty much broke right now. this is shit. up until sunday night I would have been able to contribute no problem. I feel quite guilty. I hope things sort themselves out

 

I sent :10bux:. I would have sent more but I'm not very employed at the moment All of the knowledge and entertainment this site has provided to me has been priceless.

 

What does this mean for www.rollingbomber.com ? Even though it's using phpbb would they shut that down too?

Sent $8.50 via paypal to yakumo. I'll still send an extra $20 when i send you that money order.

 

That is a really freaking bizarre website.

You sortof answered your own question, though - it's using phpbb, which is free. We were on the vBulletin software, which is NOT free. The issue here is that our copy of vBulletin powering the site was apparently pirated - yet another nice present left by the fellow who set the new site up.

 

Donated 5 spot to yakumo sorry it couldn't be more but i just bought a new car today and now i am tapped. looks like i am skipping this generation of machines for a while now.

 

Whats the deal with that site?Its bugged out man.

 

I just sent $10
But frankly, rather than being taken in hostage by a proprietary program from which you can't export messages easily, I'd rather have someone spend time to do a conversion of messages and switch to say, phpBB or something free.
In any case, please don't lose the existing message base (it has been lost already and that was a shame IHMO).

 

Just saw this thread, if any more money is needed I'll paypal some when I get back.
