I'm with ya Ed. Everyone should donate...Some websites charge to register and Bostonstangs is free....I met alot of good people on here and have no problem helping the site. If people have sold parts on here and don't donate they are just plain cheap! You know who you are. By-the-way everyone in the feedback section has sold something. If your not aware how to donate its on the bottom of the main forum page.

I agree, no problem... we should be donating whether you sell your shit or not.. Thumbs up to Ralph Rizzo..A little from everyone helps...I will donate early next week. brap
You have a good idea. So much of the classifieds are just other people's junk or some rotbox they are trying to sell. Making people pay will make them think twice before posting their garbage. Most forums don't charge you to post classifieds or to register, but this being a small site I can understand why you would. Things aren't cheap these days including websites.
Maybe your boy shiesta Tim can help you out. He was posting his shitboxes on a regular basis for a while.
JUST TAKE DOWN ALL MY CLASSIFIED ADS I DON'T THINK THERE IS A NEED TO BE CALLED SELFISH OR CHEAP WHEN THE OWNER OF THE SITE COMES DOWN TO MY HOUSE TAKES PARTS SAYS HE WILL PAY ME LATER AND NEVER DOES THAT'S PRETTY CHEAP IF U ASK ME
PLEASE CLOSE ALL MY CLASSIFIEDS THANKS

Ok, He's not looking for a fee everytime somebody sells something.He is however looking to a small donation. It does cost money every month to keep this site running . If he fails to pay the site will turn off. I in the past have sold that i can remember injectors and gauges to members here . If members on here would make a DONATION then it would help Ed out alot. Come on guys would it really be that painfull to make a small donation ???

donating through the site is a bitch... when there are meets someone bring a grill.... and buy a pack of hot dogs or something... charge 5 or ten bucks to get in and when you get in you get a dog and a soda or something... then the site nets like 8 bucks per meet per person... maybe not do it every meet but maybe once a month or something... so over the course of spring summer and fall youll get like 40 bucks a person a year and no one will think anything of it, especially if your getting a dog or 2 and a soda when your at the meet
then like you said ed all the money comes back to the site... so after fees and stuff are paid on your end maybe get ROTM calenders made or something and give them out either free or real cheap and have a couple small things to keep the club alive during the winter like that... free sticker free calender... maybe get a plaque or something if you get ROTY

everyone has something nice to say and says oh yeah ed i agree blah blah but will see when u actually donate i mean come one this isnt the first time he has had to say somthing step up or go to www.fuckyourself.com and sell ur shit.
i didnt agree with ed i made a suggestion. and i went to a few meets but if i have to work im obviously not going. if theres enough meets everyone will eventually cycle through. and why would anyone donate to a club that cant even get formal meets together, i thought regular meets were a given come spring. and they should be.

im a new member to the site and already have learned some stuff that will help me out and have a good summer in my stang id like to donate if it would help i have cash so if you want to meet up ed ill give 20 to the sight right now if it will help
back to my food idea... if 1/3 of the members on this site donated 8 bucks which would be about one meets worth it comes to about 1600 bucks. thats only 1 or 2 meets and only one third of the members.

NO. ED. DIDNT. ED. MADE. A. COMMENT. ABOUT. DONATING. NOT. PAYING. FOR. ANYTHING. and no one is bitching about meets. meets are a way to make money. maybe if dicks like you tryed to have an idea that could help instead of just bitching at people, members would turn out for meet and therefore donate to a club they enjoy.

its frustrating. ed i understand where your coming from but in order to raise money people need to appreciate the site. if the site is a bunch of classified and very few threads that help gather information or interest people no one is going to donate... you dont donate to craigslist, you donate to a site that provides you with something... if the site provides us with information, or meets like a club people will have no problem donating-- and making it a club
calendars with all the ROTM i bet people would buy... mark up the price and theres a donation
the site should be a business for you ed, you should be getting advertisment income... the sidebars of the threads and pages should be loaded with advertisments... not just a thread of sponsors...
just my opinion... sorry for calling you a dick

i donated with my pay pal account it came out of my account and it doesnt show up i donated again today samething and agian it dont show up i just hope someones getting it
Allright , just want to add that nobody is being accused personally for anything. It would just be nice if people that have sold parts or enjoy the site to make a small donation.
For people that are unaware how to donate on the main forum page at the bottom you can make a donation with your debit card. All donated money goes into a account that cannot be accessed by anyone including Ed. Its a account that only feeds the monthly dues to run the site. Thank you for understanding.

i aggree with brian on this one ive prob posted about 30 ads and have never sold anything to anyone on here threw the website i got no prob throwin down a few bucks tho i even offeres to throw down $100 a few monts ago to bann sheista lmao
everyone has something nice to say and says oh yeah ed i agree blah blah but will see when u actually donate i mean come one this isnt the first time he has had to say somthing step up or go to www.fuckyourself.com and sell ur shit.
we need to foucs on turning this site into something that people wont care about donating to, that is why scrib brought up his meet ideas, while i dont think that idea would work out too well because nobody goes to our meets, its a start. il glady throw a few bucks towards ed because i like the site and i wana see it become something valuable, and ed shows he cares
the people who only use the site to make money will always do that regardless if you ask them for a donation or not, and its a forum you cant charge fee for products sold, like i said il donate a few bucks for eds sake even though ive never met him, played middle man on a set of gears sold to him from scrib thats it, he seems like a good shit though, but like, you cant ask people to give money for nothing.. if we donate lets see some turn around.... aka...good meets?. good forums topics vs fuck you shiesta threads.....
ed what happened to the MMR on the top of the page from what i remember they where giving jim money to be on the main page. where did that go???
what if we find something like that again.. try like americanmuscle.com summitracing, jegs, ect see if we can have a company donate
i like the calander idea everone can always use a calander
also i would not mind A GOOD THICK HOODIE SWEAT SHIRT black with a small BS logo with the site address on it in the upper left corner
or
A NICE FITTED HAT with the BOSTONSTANGS or a bostonstangs logo
and people pay for before the order is set up so no one is stuck fitting the bill and stuck with merchandise
if you need help setting this up i have no problem starting something like this and being incharge just not going to put my money up and get stuck with stuff like i did with stickers
ED PM ME IF YOU WANT TO TALK ABOUT THIS
MIKE
