Help support the Board (Updated with Mailing Address) - Page 2 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Maximum Overdrive · 08-16-2002, 04:46 PM

I'll donate some cash again, just need an address to send money to like last time.

One point though 68 Suburban. It is not really a right nor a privilage. It falls somewhat in between the both of those definations. The analogies you gave are not the greatest either.

Say you donate to the United Way or the Red Cross, people can and do demand accountablity from them and you do not have to donate to them. As for a membership you can join the Salvation Army gyms and you can get accountablilty from them also. Just because their is paid or free memebership does not mean there is no acountability.

Point being is accountability ensures that everything is on the level. To ask accountablilty is not used so much as that people distrust someone or a company but to show that everything is on the up and up to others that may be looking in from the outside. This shows to other potential members that things are on the level and not a scam.

Its clear that this was also in the back of Joshs mind as he was very up front about that he may use some of the money for his truck. By the simple mentioning of that fact he is showing a degree of accountability and that should help put peoples mind at ease.

On another note though I think if people send money orders we should send postal money orders as the banks should not give Josh any hassle with them like they do with independent money orders. If there is a problem with the banks cashing postal money orders I think but I'm not sure but the post office use to cash their own money orders.

Josh and others who help;

$$ via Paypal. Keep up the great work. I look forward to the boards and member emails each day. I wish I could spend more time at it (If I didn't have to work for a living). Maybe someday I can find a way to hookup with someone related to these trucks on a business venture and quit me day job. I'm open to suggestions.

*Fast68Chevy* · 09-03-2002, 12:53 AM

some cash on the way in the morning, and some more sometime after that, for all the hours of use ive gotten here on the forum, i could be in debt for longggggggggg time lol :P

I completely applaud you, Josh, I know little about internet and such, I duno how you did it, but you did and its been the best ever, totally.

I dont know what else to say really, anything i can think of to say right now has already been said by other members.

happy truckin!

BobbyK · 08-29-2002, 05:30 PM

The board too valueable to ME to loose so I'll gladly support it.

**ThreeQuarter** · 08-15-2002, 04:21 PM

Smitty I think he's referring to the advertisement banners at the top of the pages, etc. and not the classifieds.

**ThreeQuarter** · 08-15-2002, 05:15 PM

All good points, 68burb.

Donate however much the board is worth to you. That way everyone gets their money's worth.

imaindianoutlaw · 10-09-2002, 04:34 PM

Money order on the way!

*Shane* · 08-15-2002, 04:22 PM

Smitty...i think Josh is refering to the ads at the top of the pages (the ones that flash and what-not)....not the ads we post for selling or wanting to buy parts....or the ads for the suppliers......

Charlie Coleman · 09-19-2002, 01:00 PM

PayPal on the way.

This site is invaluable, and not to metion a great resource for folks like GMCPAUL and WES @ Classic Heartbeat! Keep up the great work Josh!

seanu · 08-21-2002, 03:49 PM

Josh, keep up the good work, I will get a paypal payment out to you here soon. I paid the last time also so if you want to add the note to my sig it's up to you or you can wait until I send again.

thanks
Sean

**PICKMUP** · 09-10-2002, 03:23 AM

I must just enjoy the pain! LOL...so I sent you a little PayPal so I could keep doing this.
You probably need to add the "contributor" thing to help take some of the heat off me! Ha Ha.

**JDL** · 08-20-2002, 07:31 PM

You got it.

chevynut · 09-20-2002, 02:38 AM

I am glad to contribute some money.

I have a suggestion, maybe put a link to PayPal at the mainboard page that has a donation amount.

I go to a site that has some of these "buttons" in set amounts like $5, $10, $20. If you have a PayPal account it is super quick and easy to send money.

Thanks, keep up the good work.

kingparts · 08-15-2002, 10:17 AM

Money has been sent through paypal.

Chevyc10! · 08-15-2002, 07:49 PM

Just tell me where to send a money order/ cashiers check etc. Only too happy to help...
Jake

Chevyc10! · 08-17-2002, 12:16 PM

Good point...if you can't use paypal then send money order or cashiers check.

Chevyc10! · 08-30-2002, 01:19 PM

Just dropped the postal money order in the mail today! Thanks for all the hard work Josh...
Jake

DennyB · 10-24-2002, 06:47 PM
