I've received several donations already. Thank you everyone that donated.
This is the list of expenses for the server move:

Newest Version of PHPNuke: $10
New hosting plan (1year):$120
Storage upgrade (1year):$25

Total Cost 155 dollars
Total donations: $70

If any of you can donate 5 or 10 bucks via PayPal, I would be most grateful. As you can see, this move was very expensive. But now we have a much more reliable host, and a fatter bandwidth pipe. We are also upgraded to the best version of Nuke yet.

So if anyone can spare 5 or 10 bucks...

My paypal email is jstagner14@apmail.apsu.edu

Thanks!

Jeff Stagner

I wish I could give more.... I feel like i'm stealing.... I'm on this site so much, and i'm not paying a thing... My wife thinks it's stupid that I would give some guy money that I don't even know for a website that I could look at for free. She thinks that me giving you $ won't benefit me at all. But I told her where to stick it.... "In a nice way of course" I don't wanna be sleeping on the couch. But I really do appreciate all you do on this site. I check this site in the morning before I even check my email. It's also set up as my default page in Firefox. But regardless you run a hell of a website. And I wish I could give more. Keep up the good work!!!

I'm glad you enjoy the site as much as I do. 25 dollars is a very nice donation. Tell your wife that I appreciate everyone's help.

All I can say is that everyone has been very nice to me.... You let me join without even having an AMD. And I don't even get made fun of..... But I promise I will buy one when my gateway kicks the bucket. And knowing Gateway, that shouldn't be much longer. :lol: But I may hold of buying a computer until that new Triathalon chip comes out.... That will be sweet. :lol:

Sorry Jeff, Paypal won't let let send any more at the mo 'cos back in August, someone stole £465 (about $790) from my credit card using Paypal. It's under investigation so the account is frozen. :cry:






And I don't even get made fun of...

That will have to change :twisted: Look at the large graphic at the top of the page ;)

Sell the gateway, get a Duathlon :lol:

Careful Stuart.

It may have been in the lost posts but I think I recall you committing to buy Jason an AMD super computer when your mortgage is paid off.....

Did you get your money back from PayPal?

Beerknurd
09-21-2004, 02:13 PM
Thanks AMDave........ I forgot all about that...... :twisted:

Ok Stuart i'm writing that one in my journal....."I don't have a journal now, but i'll get one." I won't forget!!!!!!!!!

Did you get your money back from PayPal?

Not yet, I only started the process last week when my C/card statement arrived.

It might take until xmas :cry:

Beerknurd

It was me Stuart... I hijacked your credit card, bought an AMD off ebay using your paypal account. I should get it in a couple of weeks.

Jeff
09-21-2004, 05:09 PM
Your credit card more than likely has a 0% liability for online fraud..

Ototero
09-21-2004, 05:31 PM
Jeff, I think (and hope) they have 100% liabiliity.

I don't care who pays me as long as I get the money back.

Jason, send the processor to me, it's MINE. :)

Jeff
09-21-2004, 06:07 PM
I meant a 0% liability to you. I tihnk the credit card company should take care of you.

Did the people who hijacked your PayPal account have anything shipped?

Ototero
09-21-2004, 07:34 PM
The guy who the money went to has lots of stars against him (meaning good buyer/seller). So I can only hope it was an accidental use of my cards details.

It's still early days. I've filled in an affidavid (?) to my c/card. Then emailed ebay to explain.

Jeff
09-21-2004, 07:43 PM
Did someone login to your paypal account or what? I am confused.

Ototero
09-21-2004, 08:31 PM
I don't think anyone logged in, otherwise they would have taken a lot more.

Beerknurd
09-21-2004, 08:33 PM
Stuart,

I only took what I needed. I'm not greedy. You told me you would buy me one after your mortgage was paid off. I just couldn't wait. I hope you understand.

Does that make it a Buyathlon then?

Ototero
09-22-2004, 08:08 AM
No, but maybe a GoodbyeAthlon

:lol:

Beerknurd

I had it shipped to an undisclosed international address. It will go through 5 or 6 checkpoints before it is delivered to me in the US. You will never see or get it back. Sorry Stuart. :twisted:

Jeff

You have no compassion for the poor guy. I'd be going crazy if I had that much money in the air.

Ototero

I know I feel sorry for him.... It actually upsets me alot.... He'll never pay off his mortgage if people keep jacking his account #'s....... And until he pays it off, no AMD for me. :cry:

I'll see what I can do as well. Still didn't get my money from Bionic though. :evil:

Jeff
09-25-2004, 04:16 AM
Yea, I feel bad about that. You think you can trust people, but you can't. Bionic was always weird.
