Anybody else facing this problem ?

I always get feelings of dread when stuff like that happens, yeah. And it did, to me, too, last evening. A bunch of red torrents and that warning message.

Good thing it all got fixed and back in a few hours. It took a lot to not panic and find something else to do for a while... haha!

I'm curious what was wrong. I'm thinking some kind of monthly (yearly?) maintenance issue of some kind, but it would be cool to know, if some Dime person can chime in... Cheers!

We need donations too, but I don't even think we have ANY options other than mailing in cash.... haha! And Canada Post is on strike so don't send me anything...

Jokes aside, we do need some help, but I still don't think we have found a solution. Look here if anyone is inclined to help us out...

Yeeshkul!, The Zomb, almost lost Genesis Movement - we're a dying breed over here! As much as some folks love to hate it, it would really suck if they went offline for good. Or us... Lots left to share! Let's keep 'em going!!!

As it is in the thread that I linked to in my previous post, "The future of TTD Donations", we don't currently have an automated donate option, and we need to work on finding some options for that again. The last I think I remember, U2Lynne was taking donation cheques via snail mail as an only available option. Mailing cash isn't really that much of a joke, but a real option. That was a while ago though, so now I am totally not sure what to do. Perhaps a PM to her is an option right now? I know that she has limited availability for regular check-in here, but is still involved in our continued existence!

We do need a more permanent and easier solution for our continued server costs, and our eventual upgrades to the site which will be pretty significant. If someone out there knows a way, please let us know! So many ridiculous terms and conditions in digital currency transfers... Hard to catch a break!
If you happen to be a billionaire who wants to be our benefactor, get in touch! haha! For now, us regular folks who might want to donate should keep that cash aside. Perhaps soon we can figure out another way to easily keep us financially afloat for a while again... Fingers crossed!

My sister mentioned it to me some time ago, and I do see my financial institute does include that service.
I have never used it, so I cannot speak from experience how easy/hard it is to use.

I have always thought that if I won a billion damn dollars in a jackpot, I'd keep this and The Hotel up and running, and liberate all the Zeppelin. Well, after I give my ex at least $50 but no more than $100 million to leave me the Hell alone.

It was simple and easy to use as a standalone service. Now, your bank has to offer it.

I mean in theory, couldn't we just CashApp, Venmo, Chime or PayPal something directly to somebody? Not directly for a website, obviously. Or, at that point are we crossing a bit of a line?
