Just because someone's idea isn't the most practical, doesn't mean that input, and future contribution isn't welcomed--in fact, it's encouraged... don't take it personally when others try to explain why something isn't the best idea...
the whole donation thing is optional, there's a link you can contribute to, and many of us have... and with sponsorship, etc., my point was that we don't really need to take further fund raising action aside from what Jay already has set up... not that jay's trying to rip us off, that's totally the wrong point, but that the urgency you placed behind needing to fundraise for the site was a bit misplaced.
it wasn't your cue to take it all personally and post your intentions of leaving the site (like so many have in the past)... Your enthusiasm is needed around here, just don't take it personally when someone tries to offer some constructive criticism.

Beautifully said Steve.
It;s a real shame we lose good contributing members over different views.
