RW does a lot and it's growing to the point where for many things it could be considered the "one stop shop" for certain things.Armondikovnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7704319824079243400.post-46393329693966880772010-04-27T11:23:44.208-04:002010-04-27T11:23:44.208-04:00I popped a donation in yesterday, but I'm crap...I popped a donation in yesterday, but I'm crap at remembering to do that. Any idea if PayPal will allow a monthly thing? It might make it easier to plan these things if there's regular (even if small) amounts coming in. The risk I see with expanding infrastructure is you could be left paying for it if donations become irregular.<br /><br />How about having a fund raising drive anyway? It's been a while since we did one, and there are some pretty exciting ideas being floated around that won't come to much unless there's cash to support them.Concernedresidentnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7704319824079243400.post-6398721072813978492010-04-27T01:28:11.607-04:002010-04-27T01:28:11.607-04:00The problem is that everything costs money.

There is all sorts of things that need sorting out, backup, LLC, infrastructure expansion....if time sink is a pain but doable, but there is just not much in the way of financial backing for RW. In a pinch the community is great about meeting a specific need, its just draining to have to role out a fundraiser every 3-4 months. I know that is well within the norm for these kinds of endeavors I just suck at it.T.
