James, I would appreciate it if you would STOP giving updates on the $5 donation drive until after the week has elapsed. This defeats part of the reason for having it. This last page of conversation is another reason for it. You already informed us that we had enough money to cover September's payment without the $5 fundraiser. The $5 donations should extend our Invision subscription through October. This should allow plenty of time for discussions/concerns about the forward moving direction of the forum. Of course, there needs to be a discussion cut-off date too. Maybe by the end of August. This would allow plenty of time for people to have their voices heard. Chris

👍

Sean, No need to post it. Please let James know who it is from when you're actually in the donation process. After a week, James can give us the number of people who donated,but their names do not need to be revealed.

Sandy, Multiple people sending checks through the mail is a variable I don't think we want to deal with. Speaking for myself. I don't want to write a check when I can just click a few keyboard keys and be done with it via a Paypal link or something similar. I believe you can "gift" a friend up to $16,000 dollars without having to claim it. I would suggest any contributions/donations be labeled as a "gift" when sent to whomever ends up being the finance overseer. I also have read in the case of a non-profit corp, the first $1000 in donations are usually tax-free if that is a concern. Since the monthly Invision fee for us appears to be $80 per month, that's $960 per year which keeps it below a grand. I find it hard to believe that we would have legal problems regarding this amount unless there is some other revenue the forum is generating.

Jim, Go to the top of this page and on the left hand side, within the blue banner running across the entire page top, rest your cursor on the word "Store" and just below it, the "donations" link should appear as a drop down option, then click it. After you enter the amount ($5),the rest is self-explainable as it will eventually ask for a payment type.

James, Ty's response is exactly why I asked you not to disclose any amounts until after the week of $5 contributions. The $ amount reflective of those contributions would probably give us a better idea on how many members will likely be responsible for funding the forum. I don't expect it will be anywhere near the 55 members Kathy revealed. At the end of one week, can you still let us know how many members contributed the $5? Even though we have enough for September, I still encourage you and everyone else to donate the $5. Any extra can be applied to future Invision payments. It appears from the other discussion, there are many details to work out moving forward, so the extra time is a good thing.

Please contribute only $5 using the "donation" link. This is located at the top of the page under the "Store" menu. Just place your cursor over the word "Store" and the "Donations" link should appear. After a one week contribution period, sometime next Thursday, Aug 11th, James can provide us with the total amount raised. This will provide us with more time to discuss/resolve the changes that are upon us. Thanks, Chris

Thanks Kathy.

Cory, Let's at least get September funded to give us a little more breathing time. This will allow us to work out what type of access format is preferred, among other addressable items.

Thank you James. So, just to cover the month of September, I will start a new topic asking for everyone who has chimed in on this topic(and any others interested) who offered to contribute, go ahead and use the "donation" link once they are logged in and donate only $5. I suggest we let this $5 contribution period last one week. After one week, you can then inform us as to how much was raised, if we're short of the $80 mark we'll make up the difference. Please do not inform us before a weeks time is up if we hit the $80 mark.

James, So far, the total number of responses from contributors is between 10/15 people. You already have the donation link set up to your account. If everyone who has chimed in on donating, can contribute $5 at this time(covering 70$ for September) via the donation link, can you make a last payment for September? This, in essence,would be a trial run for the future,with the contributing members knowing that our payment process would evolve via Paypal. It would give everyone a little breathing space and allow more time for you to help the new administrator/others with running the forum via Invision. If our initial $5 contribution total is not enough to cover September, just give us the remaining amount needed.

Kathy, Any luck on the active member count/list?

Sounds like that could be completed, expeditiously. With that said, can we get a headcount of the participating members on this forum. Once we have that number, divide it into the monthly cost. Start a new topic(run for a few days?) asking for a confirmation from participating members if they can contribute the equal monthly fee. See what the response is. Create a link which shows(doesn't give access) participating members the ongoing balance in the Paypal account. Equal payment by all participating members. Personally, I don't want to be reminded that we're going to run short on funds. X amount of paying members x X $amount = coverage.

Background stabilized, while initial frames have been lightened:

btw, Wallace didn't see who we refer to as prayerman in Wiegman. He thought Lovelady was Oswald. Nothing is visible in Groden's copy unless you apply some shadow contrast. He did mention the Fritz note.

Nor did I say Bart discovered/created Prayerman. He has done a fantastic job with the Malcolm Blunt documents. "New evidence from these files leads to Prayer Man" That's fine. I stand corrected. My apologies.

The point being, Sean Murphy (imo) should be credited with the importance of Prayerman. I believe it was Robin Unger who found this same person in the Darnell frames at a later time. If that is incorrect, I stand corrected. Credit Below:Bart Kamp

Do you see Prayerman?

Robbie, That's incorrect. Do some more research and you'll find the appropriate answer.

James, It is not meant as criticism as we know you financed the forum for a long time. Relating to our last fundraiser, if you go back and look at that thread, you listed 10 contributors, 4 others afterward who chimed in and contributed, which equaled a total of approx $1200, close enough to $1000 if that is what you meant. So 14 contributors last round unless there were others un-named. Everyone should keep this in mind when projecting future revenue based on X number of participants.

Thanks James, This is just a guess, but basing it on the info from above it sounds as though the monthly fee from say "the beginning of 2019" has been $120 per month. Jan2019 -Jan2022 = 36 months x $120 = $4320 $4774-4320 = $454 remaining(circa Jan2022) and you realized we were falling behind "big time" with the reserves. $454/120 = good for approx 4 more months after Jan2022, unless more funding could be obtained. I'm not sure how much was raised in the Jan2022 fundraiser, but take that total and divide by 3(equals months after the $454 would have been used up) bringing us to July/August 2022. If you don't have any reserves left, the following would be close to what the monthly charge has been for these past 3 months. After the fundraiser, you gave an estimate of being paid up through April 2024. Based on $70 per month, I assume we raised about 26 months worth(Jan2022-Apr2024) x $70 = $1820 $1820/ last 3 months = $606 per month which would extinguish the fundraising reserve. Just one way of looking at it. Chris

James, Sorry to hear about your predicament, but I'm not sure I follow this clearly. We had a fundraiser in the early part of this year. At that time, supposedly we had raised enough to get us through April of 2024: https://educationforum.ipbhost.com/topic/27564-i-am-resigning-my-post-in-admin-and-stopping-the-invision-payment/?do=findComment&comment=452432 Moving forward, I then suggested that it might be easier for everyone to contribute in smaller monthly amounts, via automatic payment. https://educationforum.ipbhost.com/topic/27564-i-am-resigning-my-post-in-admin-and-stopping-the-invision-payment/?do=findComment&comment=452389 Where do we actually stand in regards to our reserve totals? Thanks, Chris
