"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

Evading? I use the term "written off" to mean the same thing as "it's good as gone". I'm out for the day tomorrow doing some light physio so i may well pop into a net cafe and set up paypal etc.

btw.....one idea how we could increase the motivation for donating in general...:

if it is possible we should add some kind of counter to the donation page. means we show some kind of balance sheet showing the monthly cost for the server and then the time remaining for the pay as well as the actual amount of money on the paypal account.....

By the way, those of you running AdBlocker or some other form of blocking ads can help us a ton by not blocking ads on HLP... ;)

Don't do that. It'll just register as false clicks and might cause trouble down the road.

Yeah. Try to give the impression that you're just browsing through the forums, when suddenly "Ah, that advertisement looks interesting. I think I shall click it". Doing some heavy click-click-click-click-click-click-click-click raises suspicions and can open the gates of Hell cause problems and money loss and whatnot.
