Forum funding help please!!
« on: November 25, 2010, 05:03:58 pm »
Regrettably, we have to ask if Members could kindly dust the fluff out of their trouser pockets, and search out some pennies to keep the Forum on the air.

Current costings are about ?25 a month, and the outgoings are to a great exent funded by Director himself.
The pot has run dry and is in need of a top-up. I've started the ball rolling with my two penn'orth. All contributions (preferably) large and small will be welcomed with open arms.

The CXOC Paypal address is: paypal@cxoc.net   (Incidentally, the account name of Slidegamers is quite correct, should you be concerned)

Thanks all.

Well, I'll say thanks for the last time anyway, even tho' I wasn't i/c at the time.

Wish I could put more in myself, but the bills recently have been horrendous and I still haven't paid the Accountants for last year and the short time I was working.

I just wanted to say a heartfelt thank you to everyone who's so readily contributed! You guys are the life and soul of CXOC and you just helped me to stop it disappearing from the web for a few months due to financial burdens.

Hopefully with career progression, this will be the last eventuality like this.

Come on Guys and Gals, this is your Club. Yes, all of you, even the ones out there on the fringes, peering in, hoping we don't notice. Every one of you has gained something from this Forum, whether it be factual or entertainment value. Don't leave the upkeep of this facility to a mere handful of contributors - just the price of a pint or a packet of fags from each of the regular users here would do handsomely.

Send just a small sum to the best value car Club on the Net - paypal@cxoc.net

Buggered up with fuel estimation again - Citroen fuel gauge, so now I'm driving around with 1/4 extra fuel than I normally have at the end of the month. I shall send a donation at the weekend. ;D. I dont think though I can send a passenger side air vent or apple sauce by paypal. Would a donation of money be consivered too vulgor????

It's a small cost to read the thought's of you all.

May contain 35 other Citroen Xsara's, a Xantia, and some Pug 306 parts. May even have new parts fitted.

Griff, you can be as vulgar as you like, just as long as it means loadsawonga.  :P

Minor mod - if the passenger side vent is a Phase 2.5, I'll take that in part payment, if you can squeeze it down the line.  :coolsmiley:

Hi Phil i contributed a bit earlier in the year and will give some in the new year after Miss m8rky junior has had her xmas laptop and then in january her horse riding themed birthday party, hope the forum can hold out till then. I just pray theres enough Xsaraista to keep us alive.
What the hell just happened? now I have got two.

just sent some.  :)

worthy of note guys... when you pay, change it to 'personal' and 'gift'. this way CXOC doesnt have to pay any blady fees to recieve this moleh! therefore more money to spend on running costs!
