Please support the Forum by using the Amazon Link this Holiday Season

Amazon has started their Black Friday sales and there are some great deals to be had! As you shop this holiday season, please consider using the forum's Amazon.com link (listed in the menu as "Amazon Link") to add items to your cart and purchase them. The forum gets a small commission from every item sold.

Additionally, the forum gets a "bounty" for various offers at Amazon.com. For instance, if you sign up for a 30 day free trial of Amazon Prime, the forum will earn $3. Same if you buy a Prime membership for someone else as a gift! Trying out or purchasing an Audible membership will earn the forum a few bucks. And creating an Amazon Business account will send a $15 commission our way.

If you have an Amazon Echo, you need a free trial of Amazon Music!! We will earn $3 and it's free to you!

Your personal information is completely private, I only get a list of items that were ordered/shipped via the link, no names or locations or anything. This does not cost you anything extra and it helps offset the operating costs of this forum, which include our hosting fees and the yearly registration and licensing fees.

Stay safe and well and thank you for your participation in the Forum and for your support!! --Deborah

    Breaking News: Possible solution for the Forum

    Hi, everyone. We are less than two weeks away from the date I plan to close the Forum. I have not seen a lot of support for any particular solution for the Forum going forward so far. Learning how much this place has meant to you all (including dpatnod) has moved me, so I have a proposal.

    If we can raise at least $600 in donations by Sunday, May 26th, I will keep the Forum going through the end of the upcoming season (February 2025). That will include moving us to a new server. By the end of the season, if our Amazon commissions still do not support the Forum, I will either put in a subscription option, ask for another round of donations, or end the Forum.

    Is this something you folks would be interested in? If we fail to meet the donation goal by the deadline, I will refund the donations received during this period and continue with the plan to end the Forum.

    If there is another viable solution the group would like to pursue instead, I'm down for that. I am just feeling very more and more uneasy about breaking up the group without a good replacement.

    Appreciate hearing your thoughts.

    Is there any way you can approximate how many are active, as say during the Lions and Michigan football seasons?
    so maybe we can get what an average per donation you would need.
    If you got more than the 600 that would be great but just trying to find out what the goal per person would look like if most participates

                  Donation fired over. And if a monthly sub becomes the way forward, I'll be in on that ----->> as a 24/7 trades worker, CGVT keeps me motivated ! Can't be losing that.

                  Disclaimer ......, 24/7 is vastly exaggerated. Bit of a lazy bstd in reality.

                    Deb, sent you another donation of the15$ trough PayPal, the one I had planned for August.

                    Keep us informed of the amount missing. Can make another donation helping with what will be missing.

                    Thanks Deb!

                      Oh ya right right it's been too long. Well unless Deb comes back here in the meantime and tells me e transfer is OK (from here in Canada but I don't think that matters) I'll do a PayPal later when I get home. Thanks

                        I sent a donation (my real name is Alex -- el axe).

                        Please keep us updated if we're short on the goal amount. I sent an amount my wife won't question, but can do some bargaining if we need more.
