Have to say, have been blown away at the support guys. It's much appreciated.
We have met our costs, plus $20 NZD at the moment. So Duluth and I are looking at setting a target for the hardware/memory upgrade so you guys can track that.
Also, we are open to other suggestions for adding features (like what Duluth has built to promote stories from the forum to the main page, and the team areas coming soon).
With this subscription/membership model it makes sense to me get more feedback from you guys about additional features, fixing problems and all that sort of stuff.
But seriously, thanks everyone.

I'm in, thanks guys.
Can we pay certain posters to stay away from the site and improve the experience for the rest of us?

How much are you asking for?

Out of interest what %age of the donation do Patreon take?
Also, is there a way we can directly transfer cash (lump sum instead of monthly/no Patreon fees) etc?

They don't appear to support that, but we do have a paypal that it gets funnelled to that we can make available?
Since the costs are monthly, it would great to have a small amount regularly so we can see the income match those costs. But if people prefer to do a one of payment, we can sort something out.

Happy to do whatever works best, but I thought last time we did it we just transferred money into one of your guys bank accounts? Don't like to see two middlemen clip the ticket.

Yep, that's what we used to do. We had a different hosting model then, and that was good for one off costs. We now have our own server, that Duluth and I manage, and it's a monthly cost.
That's why we added in the google ads, but that has become less desirable.
