    I go on holiday for a couple weeks and the whole place changes!

    Great decision, sadly things are likely to get worse in the adwords/censorship front before they get better. Imagine inadvertently losing revenue because a certain Blues flanker happens to have a great game worthy of particular mention or even a FABTR thread.

    Independent is the way to go and Im happy to throw some dollars toward that.

      Not sure that exists in the traditional sense of the word "socialised", we have Cantabs here after all, but politically we could all be commies before the week is out (although that does seem unlikely too).

      Now that Lenin (Bart) has "died", it will be interesting to see who wins out of Trotsky (Kirwan) and Stalin (Duluth) for control of the TSF Comintern.

      which province is the Ukraine?

      Manawatu

      Albania surely?

        Out of interest what %age of the donation do Patreon take?

        Also, is there a way we can directly transfer cash (lump sum instead of monthly/no Patreon fees) etc?

        I'm late in finding this - happy to contribute, but wondering if you came up with options for Nepia's lump sum contribution scheme?

        I can still post you a cheque for a five year subscription OR - get fucked in advance techies 🙂 - send you Hey, Hey, Hey... some Bitconnect tokens! (Actually, I can't - but, I can post you some sheep shit in an envelope, which is more use if you have a garden).

        Actually, I can send you some cash via internet banking - I'm not keen on Patreon, because I'm trying to minimize my credit card use and it will piss me off if I miss a $1 repayment and have to give the fucking ANZ Bank $12 in late payment fees.

        PM me.

                Just letting you know I need to reinstate my Patreon.

                Credit card got hacked so bank canceled it. (Whole heap of 50c USD transactions, about 10 in quick succession, then a larger one for $USD10.)

                All got refunded about 10 days later so that's all good. But I've been lazy and not fixed the Patreon payment. Sorry.

                      Can't be bothered reading the thread. Where do I go to support? What's the average koha. Also of sport of all kinds stops can I get a refund. I can find posts about bench press and insta models elsewhere

                        Dear Sir Kirwan,

                        Last month Westpac recast my VISA card as a Mastercard. I do not know why.

                        I have a message from one or other of them advising that in respect to my programmed modest contribution to your fine site via Patreon:

                        "The providers listed below attempted to charge you recently using your old card details, and there is a chance the payments have been declined:"

                        So, I have reneged on my obligation to you, I am unworthy and not to be trusted. :angry_face:

                        I shall now find my way into Patreon's computer centre to identify the levers one must throw to recover one's standing. One feels so ashamed, for lapsing into the third person too.

                              Pretty sure you can quit anytime bro.

                              @MN5 and @Paekakboyz will cover your contribution to the benchpress thread and @mariner4life has the Hawt thread well covered.

                                      Don't fall for it guys. The bros are milking it. I found out from @duluth how much profit they are getting from our donations.

                                      He could almost afford a beer at Eden Park that day out of the annual proceeds.
