UPDATE: we are paid until the summer of 2011 - thank you!
The time has come that I'm going to need a little help with the cost of running the site. AZFJ runs on a server that I rent which offers really great performance and quick load times - I hope everybody is happy with how the forum runs! The cost is roughly $250/year.
A couple things I want to stress...
- No one is required to give me anything. It's important to me that this remain a "free" site in many respects of the word. So, if you are unable or unwilling - that is OK.
- I am not seeking to profit from this. That is also important to me - that this site be free of entangling interests (money, sponsors, etc). I'll keep everyone informed about how much is coming in and for how long the server costs have been covered.
Thank you all for the help! I hope this site has helped you find information, inspiration, friends, and good times - and that this continues into the future!

I wouldn't be opposed to kicking in some $$$ as well. With all the knowledge, information, opportunities and friends that I've gotten from this site I don't see how I couldn't.

Thanks!
If my goal was to rake in as much as possible, I'd do that... but I'm just trying to share the cost around, we should be good for the foreseeable future with just the thread.

Why is that a bad goal?
