During such an exciting time, it's perfect for my annual donation drive!

Hello Gatorchatter members! Each November, I give you a speech about the site and its needs, etc. and ask for money. Well, I'm going to ask for money, but I'm no mood to give a speech and I'm pretty sure no one wants to read one, either. I'll keep it brief and to the point.

Ad revenues have tanked since COVID, and continue to dwindle as fan apathy reaches further into the abyss. The core group is hanging by a thread, with many either dying off or leaving by the day. The members here are pissed both at the program and at me personally. I was hoping we could at least be coming off a win over a 2-6 team at home before asking for donations, and couldn't even get that. It isn't the best of times.

If you peruse Gatorchatter frequently and find value in it, I'd be very appreciative if you'd give. For those who don't like me, don't think of it as giving money to me, but to the platform. There is a "Donate" link at the top of page where you can make a donation via Paypal. If you can't/won't use Paypal, just shoot me a PM or email me at [email protected].

Thanks for all the support just by being here, whether you give or not.

I'm hoping to finish in the money again in the weekly pool. A donation could follow my winning ticket, hint, hint!

Despite our recent heated disagreements and the criminally questionable things youve said about my mother, I love this board, its passion, and greatly appreciate all you've done to make this place what it is. I'll be making my annual donation. I'll consider a significant increase over standard if you're willing to post a photo of yourself in some 'i love billy ball' pajamas in the "billy napier is a stupid *****" thread.

:grin:

I got some hoes on the skreet been skimming off the top. Imma put the screws to dim biatches and when I do, I might slip a note or two. It's a damn tough time to be a Gator fan, particularly football and folks are gonna be edgy and pissy. We need a place to vent for sure but we also need to make a real effort not to take is personally, at least not over sports.

Soooooo, does that mean we can take the mom jokes personally?

Despite some recent soSo heated disagreement I enjoy coming here and mixing it up .
Different opinions are good for reflection and reevaluation.
I’ll see if there’s a little money leftover after our hurricane assessment for the new dock at Steinhatchee.
Go Gators

I'm not like these other clowns who post that theyre going to give money, I don't have to advertise my generosity like that.

But just in case anyone was wondering, I give more than the previous clowns combined.

One thing I can say about this board: we have some rich-ass posters. I'd bet the average net worth of our members dwarfs those of places like Swamp Gas.

Hell, Concrete Helmet has a pool enclosure you could land a plane in.

I like this option much better than the true pay site being promoted a few months ago. I'm in.
its basic human nature. for some reason we hate forced anything, but will often times double what could have been forced, if it's voluntary. people are fairly generous when free, and absolutely not when pushed.
