I know that the premium subscriptions support upkeep of the site. I know that people who wish to continue to help the site are encouraged buy premium for other people. But this is a hassle, and can in some ways be taken advantage of.

If I'd wish do donate $250 to the site, I'd rather not have to go through the process of finding ten people to give subscriptions to.

I love this site, and would donate, but I cannot in a way that guarantees me anonymity and simplicity.

Has it been an option to add a third PayPal transaction that can be any sum, and simply for donation purposes?

If there is anything I am ignorant of regarding this, please tell me.

Well, there is one way that you might be unaware of but it isn't obvious.

  • Check your Paypal history and locate the payment(s) you've made to GTPlanet to get Premium.
  • Check out the e-mail address that is registered to that Paypal account.
  • Send funds as "gift" to that e-mail account.
  • Wait for Jordan to accept the funds.
  • ???
  • Profit!

That is all.
 
That's a very kind gesture, Juiposa, I am humbled that you would like to contribute to the site like that. :O

Premium subscriptions are paid via subscriptions:@:gtplanet.net using PayPal, and funds sent to that address will not be rejected. As you know, I generally do not ask for donations (though I have in the past when financial assistance was needed to overcome overcome a server infrastructure crisis; we all have Duke to thank or else GTPlanet would likely not exist in its current form), but if you would like to flag an additional contribution for a specific use (Premium subscriptions for competition giveaways, monthly hosting and bandwidth costs, etc.) it can be allocated accordingly and would, of course, be greatly appreciated.
