I went big. So far no repercusions. I will expect somebody to take more offense to it than what it really is worth. Someone will throw a crap fit over it even though it was a joke. That is how it works in message board life. Go ahead and kill me people.

What is going on here? This CF Extras thing has been a roller coaster from the git-go.
I've been donating regularly since I got on this board, and I was eager to hop on the bandwagon for the CF Extras stuff. I would give some serious consideration at ear-marking my "refund" for the CF Extras as a donation if someone could give some honest explanation to me what the hell just happened and why.
I understand that things go sour in business, but couldn't this wait until spring?

I love that commercial you are using in your avatar. My wife gets creeped out by it but I thought it was clever!

Harriet Michaels: Do you actually like haggis?
Charlie Mackenzie: No, I think it's repellent in every way. In fact, I think most Scottish cuisine is based on a dare.

I have to have a meeting with the party that actually rcvd the subscription money to get the details of the exact refund time-line and will send out a notice once I get that info. I apologize for the problems and hope it doesn't cause too much frustration.

A program isn't built on one player and it doesn't succeed because of one player, thus a program won't fail if it doesn't get that one player. | |

This was an obvious joke, I got it  , but some are not. If it's not obvious and needs to be spelled out it looses its effectiveness, which makes it appear to be stating something factual. Anyways, you were not the originator of the previous joke debacle.

You can plan on getting some back from my refund in the form of a donation. You run a great site. |

I too will be making another donation once the refund goes through. I hadn't actually attempted to use any of the extras stuff yet, I just felt somewhat compelled to join since donations were no longer being accepted.

Once again, thanks for the absurd amount of time, effort, and dedication that you put into CF, Jeremy. I'm sorry the subscription thing didn't work out the way you'd wanted, but I'm much happier knowing you still have complete and total control over the site. After all, that's the reason I came here in the first place- because the guy running the show was a nice, down-to-earth Cyclone fan!

Just a heads-up: you don't have to have a paypal account to donate. You can just use a credit card.
Thanks for the site Jeremy.

Nahh you come for the off topic posts and the wildly swinging topics in the on topic posts.
