The God in his presence. :o
Yo, from the first to the last of it; delivery is passionate/
The whole and not the half of it; vocab and not the math of it/
Projectile that them blasted with; accurate assassin shit/
Me and Kweli close like... Bethlehem and Nazareth/

Over the last five years I tried with adverts, the result:

amount made in 5 years: £1000
amount paid on server costs in 5 years: £5000
.... so that's £4000 I've spent as a teenager keeping this site running
(money coming from working parttime throughout university and using college support money)

... now the current server cost is $50 monthly, that's money I have to pay out of my own pocket, so the donation system is set up to allow people to help. Why $60 and not $50? PayPals fee's, the take a chunk of every donation, meaning even at $60 I still need to chip in myself. Plus my intention has always been to bring back competitions, extra money donated would fund this, not to mention new designs, further site upgrades, integration with web services etc.

The main point is: I don't make money from this site and I will never 'get my money back' from it, nor do I intend to, as long as the site stays above water, I'll keep running it.

Such a dope person man. RESPECT!!! :worship: :worship: :worship:
