Yes I know a number of online "budget aid" people who pitch "if you only give up one Starbuck visit a week you will be able to save xxxxxxxx" so I guess it makes a good example.

Personally I never did get hooked on caffeine. Ive been told thats the reason to blame for my lack of achievements
Im apparently the poster child for "wasted potential"

By the way, a few of the things people have been looking for and missing from the main server can be found here...

Hey Gandalf! I gave what I could too and I hope it helps a little. <---Is Jeffrey Z
I have a job and not too many expenses yet, but your servers make it really easy for all players to play MP and that is a great asset.
It is a great thing to see how the whole community helped out!

It's worse for me, since I read it with a chet, which turns it into the Hebrew equivalent of "yuck!"
"Ick!" is that way in English, too. "Ick!" <=> "Yuck!" <=> "Ewww!"

It's too bad no Donation Campaign exists for fixing game bugs and lost functionality.

I'd spend more on returning some lost DOM_2 functionality than what I spent for purchasing the game. Well I guess it might be better it doesn't exist.

Well in a way there was. The devs explained it often enough. I hinted at it often enough. Now its too late for major changes since they are off on a new project. But we can still pay for lesser changes.

Heh. Okay then, thank-you to everybody who helped pay for Lanka, Fomoria, Tir Na N'Og, Hinnom, etc., and for working site-search spells!

Yes, we must squash this "new project" devil, before it infects our Dom3 women!

You know, the exact same thing was suggested in the Dom3 IRC channels some ~12 hours ago.
