There are many expenses that come with running EQTC and EQ2TC, and as their popularity grows, so do the costs. It is no longer feasible for us to pay for the costs by ourselves, so we're asking for the help of those in the community who are able to contribute. (FYI: All of the first two years including domain name registrations, EZBoard fees, software and hardware costs were covered by the DenMother and House Ogre.) Currently, the one method for donating to the sites is via Paypal - donations go directly to the DemMother to help cover the hosting costs for the boards and the sites, software/hardware expenses, as well as a small stipend for our main forum admin, Verdandi. If there's any left over (there usually isn't),it will go to cover things for Niami like painkillers, chocolate, massage therapy, ... and hair color to hide the grey hairs that the site has caused ... consider it her 'pay' for the amount of work put into this site over the last several years. ;) As a thank you for at least checking out this page, even if you do not donate via the paypal button below, here is a link to some lovely EQTC wallpaper for you to save to your computer for use as desktop wallpaper.
