$xxx from me

Good going, everyone!

I've been without salary and invested over $15K in Playersbay.com over the last 6 months, so although I can not make a donation I will buy a 3 month sponsorship.

I want this sponsorship to start in February (when PlayersBay V2 is ready) but will pay upfront now to make this server a reality sooner.

I am going over budget by doing this so if you like the gesture please consider joining my 100% commission affiliate program.

See you all at LAC!

Edit: Removed the exact price of the sponsorship per Andy's request.

Wow... that was only a weekend - we need a thermometer or a yard stick or something to mark our progress. We all give what we feel comfortable with. No amount is too small. $5, $10, it all adds up in the end! It works when we all work together - we will get AGD this server!!! Some months I might not have a dime to spare, so no one should feel bad about not having $ to spare this month.

I know personally I was destroyed in December by non-paying affiliate programs and very oddly (2) programs saying I made zero when I normally make thousands from them...

Common 2010, lets see a new server and some better stats for affiliates!

Just made the donation via paypal
More than happy to help a bit, AGD does so much for us gambling affiliates.
Thank you and all the best.

Just wanted to say that sponsorship money at AGD is used for site development, not for the server.

So although I will sponsor this does decrease the need for further donations!

This is true... site sponsorships have always gone towards further coding on AGD. You may be surprised how much this costs, but you will see the fruits of that in the not too distant future!

Thanks Peter, all sponsors are appreciated!!

I'm waiting for the first program to pay me this month (it seems I make money only with programs that pay later in the month lol) and then I will help with the new AGD server :))

Good choice Andy the Dell’s T710 for the cost is a very good buy. Dell offers plenty room for expansion, mods, and good support, worth every dime IMO. I noticed some are on sale but you would have to upgrade some options.

Soon as possible I will contribute something.

Truly amazing members here!

Thanks

Compared to the time, effort and personal funds Andy has spent on making these terms alerts and analyses possible, anything we can possibly contribute pales.

I have never before met anyone in this industry with such devotion to a service that is not profitable and likely will never be so.

I want to thank Andy from the bottom of my heart, what you do is so useful to affiliates and you ask nothing in return.

Not to derail this thread and I will hit paypal as soon as I am done but why do you have to buy a server?Why should I buy a server?I want to learn something here if i can and i know Andy is some tech genuis :) We have 4 servers and we get them from different places such as iweb.ca and theplanet.com .We own a blog hosting website with 19000 members and we run it on a $149 a month server plan.Won't you have to pay rack fees for it as well?I was looking at buying my own server last year and my server admin gave me the pros and cons and he convinced me we are better this way.He is MY employee and don't work for any companies ,just wondering if I should look at this myself.

There are several reasons to buy a server, but it really all depends upon if you can manage it. If you have the right host with the proper trust factor, you can certainly host and be just fine.

With the applications that AGD currently has and the ones that are coming, the memory requirements and CPU requirements are really for a dedicated. The cost of a dedicated with the amount of RAM and CPU power is just too much for a hosted solution.

This is why I began looking into servers for AGD. There are some other advantages as well, but that is the main reason ;)

Thank you for the donation! The graphic to the right shows the progress of the donations to this point.

Thanks again to everyone who has helped with the server cost!
