Like many small businesses they have been hit pretty hard by COVID-19. You might have read their Private Message already, but I'm going to reiterate here. www.proboards.com/contributeProBoards is the host and software of Benny's House and it is a free service, supported by the revenue they get from the ads served up here. If you can't donate to their cause, please disable ad blockers you have on your browsers when visiting Benny's House. If you feel more generous, click on a few of the ads, I think that makes them some $. Like what you see? Buy it, I think they will get a few pennies more. I don't make a dime off any of this stuff, nor do I expect to. And in the same vein, any donations or subscriptions to ProBoards is between you and ProBoards, I'm not going to intervene in any issues or provide any support. Thanks and GO BEAVS!

Yesterday, I learned that using ad blocking software is a violation of the ProBoards Terms of Service, www.proboards.com/tosSo please whitelist Benny's House! Thanks.

We’re getting crushed by the Nebraska Cornhusker board. $1500 to $105. Sad.

I did a contribution a couple days ago, so should be "on the ledger" now :^) I guess you have to donate more than I did to get the cool "stickers" on your signature? I did $25 and am glad to support the developer(s) of the software whether or not I get anything :^) Attachments:

I did $25 and am glad to support the developer(s) of the software whether or not I get anything :^) The "cool stickers" i.e. the PB logo shows up on your profile when you subscribe to the ad-free option. The contributions that I started this thread for was in response to ProBoards appeal to help them through this difficult time. You can find our board and your username at this link if you've donated. So far our members have donated $266 which puts us #22. Not bad! (but still getting crushed by a bunch of Bugeaters Cornhuskers. So to recap, many ways to support ProBoards: 1. Turn off your adblocker when you visit Benny's House. 2. Click on some ads. 3. Subscribe to ad free or gift ad free to another poster. I think adfree is $2.99/month. 4. Make a contribution. To reiterate, none of this supports Benny's House or me directly. It helps us indirectly because it keeps ProBoards afloat and will also help them roll out their new software sooner. Go Beavs!

Yes, ad free is only $2.99 per month. Best deal I have found in a long time, IMHO.
