The increased bill

I've given some money a couple of times now...figure I spend enough time here to warrant it, and it pretty much is a charity out of the goodness of Brad's heart.  The donor avatar enhancement is new this year.  Donate a bit and you'll get the bling.  It's not exactly club access, but the prestige is certainly worth it.  

Interesting to know it is a new feature. I was just curious, that's all.

I think I was paying $35+ per month on Rivals, so I have no problem donating to this site (with or without donor bling). I still think Brad should make it a more prominent option/feature on the site.

I totally forgot to login before donating. Not that I want recognition for donating to the cause, but... anyway I can still get the totally-awesome-super-cool avatar banner?

How do you donate a gift card?

Visa or American express gift cards are just like regular credit cards.  Now the Oliver garden gift cards don't work as well.

Does Oliver garden sell gruel? Mmmmm... delicious gruel.

Side note: Sent $100 your way, @Brad. From my line of work, I know how much effort goes into keeping something like this up-and-running; it's appreciated.

Just as a heads up, the Donor designation is not automatic. Brad has to push it and I think he said yesterday he was going to be pretty busy today so it may be a day or so before it shows up.

Brad doesn't owe me a donor designation. I was just joshing about it. Pass it along that if he's putting my donor designation on a to-do list, it should be somewhere after the very last item on the list. I appreciate the heads up, though.

I just threw some cash on the table.  Thanks for all you do Brad. I'm more of a lurker (as evidenced by my low post count over the years) but I appreciate this site. Its the best one out there despite all the doom and gloom post that comes with it sometimes. That doom and gloom is just passionate people caring about USF.

 

Thanks again.

Thanks for being here and running up the bills....I'd like to see them escalate further.  Please help. 

 

I'll pass this along to my wife.  She's great at running up the bills.

Dude  the amount can't be much  I just donate a few bucks when I have a gift card that I have something left on and I still got the cool  super duper Donor VIP front and top of the line avatar enhancer.   I really think its like Christmas should be  its the thought that counts and if everybody did something the bills would be paid easily.

Dude, relax. I was just curious.  All things considered, if I can be cajoled into giving more than I otherwise would that's great. No? I'm not going to give less than I planned.

I'm also very interested on the match aspect. Is this organized as nonprofit or equivalent? 

I'll make my donation in October when my company campaign kicks in.

Thanks Brad for this awesome site.  I've spent a lot of time on here, truth be told probably too much time.

I've playing for free long enough so I just threw some money in the kitty.

Go Bulls!
