I just noticed that the forum has received over 1000 BTC in donations now. Thanks a lot to everyone who has donated! I think it's really wonderful that the forum has been able to raise about 250 BTC per month with only some very small advertisements, relying largely on the generosity of users.
I'm hoping that we'll be able to attract some really good bids for creation of new forum software with the 1100+ BTC now available. If not, I might reduce the requirements or perhaps try hiring people to do smaller parts of the job. My goal is to have someone writing (good, secure) code for the new forum by the end of the month or sooner.
After the new forum software is created, I intend to end all advertising and use any future donations to improve the forum's infrastructure and legal safety in various ways, while also keeping a large percentage of donations in reserve in case of legal problems or other emergencies.

Thanks. And one more question: I saw your requirements for a new forum software with "Donator" user class that won't have any marks. Does it means that it will be assigned to any donators or it means that current "Donators" will lose their additional mark above avatars ?
Current VIPs/Donators will keep their marks. My plan was to give 1-BTC donators access to the donator forum and automatic whitelisting, but no marks.

What's the price for upgrading from "Donator" to "VIP" - 40 BTC or 50 BTC ?

BTC_Bear got VIP status through his charity auction. He also donated ~50 BTC to Toys for Tots. Thanks!
Noticed that this user was placed under 'List of Donators'.
Whoops. I fixed it. Sorry.
New VIP donator: Metabank.ru. Thanks!

New VIP donator: btcx. Thanks!
I may raise the required donator/VIP donation levels if the BTC price stays this low, so now would be a great time to donate.

Thanks to VIP donator Als Pawnshop!
Got a nice collection of donation now compared from when it started to a few weeks after it started.
Thanks to mndrix for donating 50 BTC!
I'm was surprised today for being the first donator to the Forum... that's not a donor but a honor :-) . But then i'm yet more surprised of seeing only six of us. I don't need the donator badge, nor the colour, I'm just thankfull of having this site to hang out, learn and construct. This makes me think two things, many people here love this forum and would be willing to donate, as other said and perhaps don't because of the amount, I'm not better than them, just perhaps happen to have more coins. You could manage manually as many donnors per day you are willing to process and the others get in the queue. Seccond the 50 BTC might be a bit high if there is no particular or specific project to support.
Third, I believe Mark has good intentions for Bitcoins but I don't think he is the right one to trust the handling of the site nor the information in it, I happen to know him and treated him and I have my strong concerns. Perhaps no one is, but I would really look forward for another hoster.
