Donations for CondorSim.fr servers

Post by dgtfer » Sun Oct 01, 2017 10:28 am

Today 1/10/2019 begins the traditional campaign for donations from those who like our daily flights or the CondorSim.fr competitions (Grand Prix, Tchin Tchin Race, ...).
This call for donations will last until we can ensure Condorsim.fr funding during the year 2020.


Why donate ?

We currently have a very reliable and high-performance server installed by Snip and PhilippeFP. This server is by far the most expensive of our investments: just over 500 euros/year. It allows us to ensure daily flights and competitions with excellent performances. We must also pay for the hosting of the site and the forum, for Team-Speak and the domain names Condorsim.fr and Condorsim-ts.fr. Overall, our expenses amount to just over 700 euros/year.
The funding of our system has always been based on voluntary and anonymous donations, and this has always allowed us to exist until now. If one day this was no longer enough, we would have to stop everything, just keeping in mind the memories of the good and long moments spent together...

How much should you donate ?

The amount is free: it is a donation, not a membership fee. And of course it is neither an act of charity, nor a gratification for the absolutely unpaid administrators!
We want to maintain this system of toll free flights and competitions. Each one gives according to the use and the satisfaction that it derives from the numerous hours of flights during the whole year. And you can compare this with the expenses for a meal in a restaurant, an hotel night or a movie ticket ...

Attention : please state your Competition Number (CN) and forum nickname in the "Add a note" box, otherwise we wouldn't be able to identify you.

5 - If you agree with what is proposed, click on "Send money now".

The acknowledgment of receipt will let you know that your donation has arrived and is well received. If you do not see anything appear after a few days, do not hesitate to send an MP to an Admin (Marc or canastel9g).

Many thanks from the whole community :)
