Hi Guys,
As some of you know there have been some slight issues with the forum over the last few days.
As Matt mentioned this is because of bandwidth limits etc.

I would like to remind everyone that Matt funds the forum via dontations.
year to date no donations have been made :(

The last Donation was made late last year by me, and since then Matt has covered the rest himself.

I can not say that you have to make a donation to the running costs of the forum/O42 site
but if you find it valueable as I do then maybe you could all make a small donation to assist with the Hosting and Bandwidths costs so that we can continue with un-interrupted service of this fantstic resource.


you can find details here

Thank you

Hey Guys,
I'm a newbie but I've just thrown $20 US into the kitty to help keep the forum
up and running. B)
You might not think it now but you'll miss it if it wasn't here :)

An excellent time to bring this up Dave, as I see that the Forums celebrate their 3rd Birthday today! With support, I hope there will be many more :)
A massive bow and hearty thanks and congratulations to Matt for the forums and long may they continue.

Just a quick note to convey that forum costs are likely to be a little less this year because of the way I am running the software.

Thanks to those who have made donations this year, we are already up to ~40% of the annual costs.

Sorry Matt, I just posted in another thread that I had a problem accessing the forum yesterday thinking that it was a problem at my end (cached files or something).

Yes it really is appreciated for your amazing forum service you have running here and I'm sure that members would donate at the drop of a pin, we just need a little reminder sometimes. :D

Yeah, it was "scheduled" server maintenance that I never got notification of, that locked all the databases temporarily. :rolleyes:
