If you don't want to, don't do it. Donations are voluntarily, the benefits of the special VIP/Donator rank just come as a side effect.
Also remember that you're not donating to theymos, but to the forum itself. Those are two different entities.
The forum heavily depended on donations in the early days, right now, that's a little bit different.
Anyhow, they spent a fortune of the forums savings on the new forum software that's currently being developed, so your first point is kinda invalid, there's a major update coming soon.
Topic: Why should we donate to Theymos? (Read 288 times)
Voluntarily participating in this forum is donating information to him. 
Don't get me wrong but the site isnt updated graphically nor are its users given away BTC for being a member, so why give 10BTC? Why would one give 10BTC just to see who else is online? It is just a question plz don't get offended
