There are 2 simple options (1) Donate and (2) Do not donate.
If you guys feel that this is a good place / forum which provides us with lot of opportunities to discuss and exchange thoughts, brings little fun for us through its different sections, provides us opportunities to seek and extend help, helps us in replacing hardware every now and then using marketplace, gaining expertise in different gaming techs and info, and above from all you are capable to dish out a tiny part of your money, you are welcome. Those who want to recognize and appreciate these free of cost services should extend help by donating with their own free will provided they feel satisfied after donating.
However, if someone does not feel satisfied with these services OR does not feel comfortable with the donation exercise, he/she may continue availing free service as usual without any restriction until the forum is there. I dont think there is no compulsion. I am not management and not talking on behalf of PG Admn but saying what I personally feel. I'm however pretty sure that if unluckily this goes shut someday just bcoz of funds issue, many of us will be repenting and whining again that we would have donated if the situation was so tight.
So its the right time. I suggest and request to kindly step forward and help. If you cannot, please let other do it but dont make the simple things perplexed.
