Talk About Tennis 2.0

Dear all.
At the beginning of TAT2.0, I found the web host HOSTINGER. They gave us a 4 year, $99 deal, which will expire on December 6th (I can't believe it has been 4 years of TAT2.0 already). From now on, we need to pay a hosting plan of $83.88 PLUS a domain fee of $17.17. Our total yearly is therefore $101.05 which, considering my nickname, is kind of funny.
The forum will continue for at least one more year.
Regs,
Me

Thank you ponchi

I second this.

Me, too. There's no reason why one person should bear the cost of these fees alone.

It should be a calculation based on how bad you do in the contests

Well, crap. Then ponchi pays anyway.

That's cheap. We could easily collect this much to help you.

Don't count me out, thank you very much

Anyways...

is there a bank account to which one can send funds? If you publish that here, we can all send..maybe a suggested contribution would help - $25? $50?

You just had to, didn't you?
(Good one )

Thanks to all for your messages.
It was not my intention to ask for contributions, but I would welcome that. As Suliso says, the forum's expenses are not unreasonable.
For the people in the USA, I could receive Zelle. But that leaves out the people outside the United States. I recently checked PayPal (for other reasons) and I cannot open an account with PP that will deposit in the USA if I open it in Colombia. As my expenses for the forum are in $$$, I would rather do that there.
I will be in the USA in January, and then I can set my PP account to link with my account there.
Then, it will be for everybody on a personal basis to decide how much to contribute. phpBB has a very convenient PP extension.

Again, thanks to all for your support.

I will keep my eyes open in January as PayPal is the extent of my transfer services.

Ps - where in the U.S.
