micafan Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 do you think that it is a good idea to donate to MFC ps. i personally dont, because i think that their are more worthwhile things to spend your money on such as charities. what is your opinion?

babspanky Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 Well I do give to the charities of my choice, but this is not a charity. I have donated in the past because I spend a lot of time here, generally enjoy it and to be honest it's cheaper than a night out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EnFa Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 I don't think you can compare charity and donating to the club Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purplegrape Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 if you spend a lot of time on here like i do then i think its a good idea. charities are important but its up to you what you do with your money. if you do donate, it doesnt have to be alot. when i donate to a charity its usually dropping change into one of the little boxes in line @thestores or some money to the santa ringing the bell outside.

Hannah Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 I think it's a great idea! This is an amazing place, and people work hard to keep it running! They deserve some donations to help keep the site up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haeschen02 Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 I think donating is a good idea. I always have a bad conscience that I haven't done it yet but I will as soon as I have some money . It would just be really cool if we could get a few more official news from Mika's management or record company concerning gigs and other appearances.

JeyJen Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 i think it's a good idea cause the money people donate to the MFC helps the admins to keep this place opened! i'll donate something as soon as i've got the chance to do it, and i blame myself everytime for not having done it yet! and i think charity and this forum are 2 different things...to me it's important that this place goes on cause i spend a lot of time here...

deano Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 Just a quick point.... the donating is not to the MFC team, it is to pay for the HUGE hosting costs of maintaining this site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deano Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 Secondly, if you don't want to donate then don't. Simple as that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeyJen Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 Just a quick point.... the donating is not to the MFC team, it is to pay for the HUGE hosting costs of maintaining this site. that's exactly what i wanted to say...you said it so much better!!

JackViolet Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 This is an odd question... It's kind of like asking "petting a puppy--good idea or a bad idea? You can better use the time and effort you'd spend petting a puppy on helping cure AIDS." I mean, yes, certainly, donating to charities is very important... but what does it really have to do with donating to help keep the MFC running? You can do both... and both are good but very different things. --Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JackViolet Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 That was a very .. interesting comparison My specialty? Surely no one can say petting puppies is a bad idea! --Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kjoshi Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 Yeah I think it's a good idea if you want to...with out donations it would be hard to keeping this place going... doesn't mean you can't donate to a charity as well...they're 2 completely different things as Jack so wonderfully showed us with that comparrison.

mandilambi Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 Sure, it's a good idea. It helps to keep this place running, so any extra help surely makes a difference. I hope to eventually make a donation when I am not so tight for money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christine Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 I donated but didn't get the little sign below my avatar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
my_rainbow_radio Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 I think it's a good idea because in order to keep this place running, it requires money. No money, no site. And who wants to see such an awesome place like the MFC be closed? Not me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calicojasmine Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 Donations are important - and they are win/win situations. Everyone benefits. I donate here and to several charities too, especially the SPCA. Knowing you make some difference somewhere is all the thanks you need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FREDDIESDOUBLE Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 Yep its important , the MFC takes time and money to run , without donations we would struggle to go to bigger servers and keep it running efficiently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happikali Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 Yep its important , the MFC takes time and money to run , without donations we would struggle to go to bigger servers and keep it running efficiently.

littletangerine Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 I think donate money to mfc is good,but who should keep all the money ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlemaine Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 Is donating a good idea? Why not? That's like asking if you should, as someone so aptly put it, pet a puppy (assuming you dont have animal allergies). You don't have to if you don't wanna or if u're a little dry, & no one will say u're a bad person; but giving money to a cause you support is very obviously a good thing. Btw, what sort of costs are incured in the running of a website? sorry for sounding dumb, but i really hv never hosted a domain b4 so i wd like to know.

vanessa Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 I also think it's a good idea to donate !!! Mika and Mfc have changed my life ,too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nathaliiexx Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 I think its a good idea, because you have to pay for having a website.. and why must 1 person pay for it if there are a lot of ppl who using it.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
