We have to be honest and say our community sites now produce a reasonable income, although RP has never paid its way. As the major upgrades and changes to the look of the site (Jan 08), as well as on going maintenance is expensive, we decided to ask for your support as we do on ARRSE / RR.
Donations enable us to fund development of the site functionality, upgrades hardware and pay for the behind the scenes work that is necessary to keep the site working well.
If you enjoy using RP and would like to give something back financially we would be pleased to see a few pounds of your hard earned cash appear in our account and as a sort of e-thankyou we award the following additional rank to your user profile:
Anything above a pound gets you the gold member ring:
Give us £25 in a year and you get the emerald member ring:
Give us £100 and you are entitled to the o-so-tasteful ruby ring:
There is also the option to send us a direct bank transfer (done in any High Street bank branch, by telephone banking or by internet banking). Our sort code is 12-24-81, the bank is Bank of Scotland and account number is 06488848. If you do this you will need to send us an email (admin@rearparty.co.uk) with details of your donation and we will credit you with your ring (if you wish).
Your cash keeps the admins motivated and the deisgners paid - thanks for the thought!
