Hi everyone,

I'm really sorry to bring this up, but the 2 yearly bills have popped up again! :( I've already paid for the marathonstadium.com address for another two years, so that leaves the hosting, and the Xenforo forum software. The hosting is $160 for two years, and the software is $120 for two years. Both in US dollars. So this ends up as $280 US (or $440 Australian dollars) for another two years - and we will be covered until Feb 2027.

So if you are able to help, that would be amazing. Absolutely no pressure, because I know it's very difficult times for people out there. And there's no threat of the forum disappearing - if there aren't enough donations then I will find the money. :) Keeping this community running for free and without ads is always my goal, so don't worry at all if you can't afford it. If you can chip in - any little bit does help - then send it via paypal to: marathonstadium@yahoo.co.nz

I used to be able to give a payment link, but it doesn't seem to work anymore, sorry about that! If anyone has any problems with the payment let me know.

Thanks again for any help, and lessssgo Knights in 2025!!!

$90 US already!!! Thank you soooo much to those who have donated so far! 😃 That leaves $190 US to go!
 
yeah - I can't work out the paypal thing - where is that link you had a few years ago?

I tried to use it again, but it doesn't work anymore. Apparently I now have to set up a paypal.me account to do that, but paypal.me doesn't work in New Zealand. Hopeless!

I don’t have PayPal. Is there a way I can pay through BPay, Biller Code and Reference??

Looks like they're Australian things? Don't think it will work since I'm in New Zealand, unfortunately.

Sorry, I did have a look but there's not many options for this stuff that work in NZ! We just give people our bank account numbers and do a transfer haha.

$80 US to go still - just updating so people don't pay after we've reached the goal.
 
No forum upgrades needed or anything James?

And you can't still do the bank transfer thing with acc number?

Otherwise if someone wants to contribute, I don't mind giving them my bank details, and I'll paypal it on to James.
 
If people are willing to transfer the amount they want to contribute to my bank account, I promise I will immediately transfer the money to James’s paypal account.

Hey Lefty
Could I get your account details and I can contribute that way?
How do we go about doing this?
