I'm in for extra $ for a BadWeb upgrade. This should be advertised on Facebook, XL forum, UKBEG, etc maybe with a GoFundMe or similar. Is BadWeb a registered non-profit? I'd think that there would be less laundry with Grass Roots individual sponsors.

BadWeb pops up often if not every time during a web search on Buell. It's core to Buell on the web and the perfect name.

Not being critical of anyone ... Honestly, I think the forum format is preventing visitors because it's not easy to add a photo or a simple acknowledgment that I hear you & agree. It's killing itself. Of course Facebook is da debil.

As others mentioned, I'm sure the technical challenges are many but in the world of IT, all can be done. (I'm not a db type so it's easy to offer others' expertise lol)

What's happening with the upgrade? I haven't heard anything for a while and I'm curious.

I'm curious as well.

Dave, I haven't forgotten you... well not exactly... I have your envelope here, but I have to actually go to the post office.

Soon, soon...

No new news yet on upgrade. I'm a great procrastinator. Once I'm done with rent house work, I'll be able to turn attention to BadWeB upgrade.

Let us know, Blake.
Since I filed for my SS benefits, I have money left at the end of the month.

Headstrong Machining can and will help with funds.

As this is the only message board I frequent, I remain blissfully unaware of all the newer, neater, and easier to use software. Back in my day, our message boards were baby poop green, and we liked it that way. Now, get off my lawn! Damn kids with their rock and roll music.

I don't know how it could be any easier.

We can embed images and youtube videos.

All is well.

For anybody who doesn't want to send funds electronically, you can mail checks or money orders to me, and I'll convert those donations for you.

When it's completed, I can PM or email you with a confirmation screen that shows the donation was made in your name. I can also post that here if you wish, or you may remain anonymous, as some have chosen to do.

OK people, cough it up if you haven't already.

A couple of bucks a month, or maybe $20 a year or something.

Everybody loves to come here to the mustard palace to complain about the world, share their stories and bait the trolls, so that's got to be worth something to you.

Dig deep, and throw a couple of your hard-earned ducats on the pile.

Help!

2020 and 2021 (extrapolating) have me in the red by roughly $675 and $774 per year respectively, which means that's coming out of my personal account to keep the BadWeB up and running.

Would sure appreciate some help from anyone not already pitching in.

We have had over 800 users login to the BadWeB this year so far, about half that in the last 90 days. If just a tenth of the annual users would kick in $3/mo, we'd be golden.

As of September 30th, 2021 we now have just 14 regular supporters funding the site, and the average donation prior to PayPal fees is $7.22. So far this year, we've got another $150 from non-repeating individual donations.

The server still costs $200 per month; PayPal takes 7% on average as their cut of all donations, and the domain registrar gets round $60/yr. Neither I nor any of our custodians get a dime for looking after the place.

Thanks to ALL who are chipping in keeping the place up and running. I do still intend to give it some much needed upgrades. Our sysadmin, Brian, has installed a new forum. I just need to make the transition happen.

The link to donate via PayPal: https://www.paypal.com/donate/?cmd=_s-xclick&hoste d_button_id=MVLFJDCGHKPC6

I also have a VENMO account, user name = @Blake-Rudy-1

and a Zelle account. You can find my mobile # in the Buell Riders Assistance Network in the Texas listings. You need to be "logged-in" to open that at http://www.badweatherbikers.com/cgibin/discus/board-auth.cgi?file=/42/42.html

Thanks

1) Let's not talk about shutting down this most valuable resource. So folks, start bucking up! It will cost us so little.

2) As a community, we cannot expect Blake to foot all the cost. Him and others have done so much for this community. As a community, we owe them so much.

3) Is there another way to make electronic donations other than PayPal? I would rather do that!

4) Is this still the correct place to send a check?
