Appeal for donations and about discord
Posted: Wed Oct 12, 2022 8:16 am
It is almost a year now since our Patreon was nuked along with our YouTube channel. In that time, all the rainyday funds I saved up over the years have been used and for quite sometime now, I have been bearing the costs alone. My hope was that we would slowly build up our Patreon again, a year later and it hasn’t happened.
I know I haven’t been pushing for it enough but I have been silent, about a lot of things this year. It can’t go on for long, I managed it for as long as I could but it’s time I get some help from you.
The bulk of the costs comes down to hosting, CDN then the next big ones are DDOS protection. These are running costs. We enjoyed a short relatively stable period last year when I could even think about advertising, doing giveaways or improving the forum in many ways but it didn’t last long and our YouTube/Patreon were nuked. This is what I had to deal with since the day I decided to help CE community.
It has been 5 years since this community started and I wanted to do a celebration giveaway too like other sites but we just aren’t in that position. It has always been a struggle keeping this community alive. I tried with the app we built to have a win win win situation for the contributors, the users and FRF but it just gave ammunition to the enemies of FRF who have always been trying to bring us down, perhaps I ended it prematurely but I wasn’t going to enforce something that community didn’t like and it seemed that way.
I also have sort of news to share, I have decided to start a public discord for FRF. It should serve as help and support ( account, other issues ) for FRF and just chit-chat. Some of you had issues with account or site, I think Discord would be a nice place to handle that. Please note since we aren’t allowed to have cheat engine discussion on Discord, that content will be locked behind Patreon for safety of our server. Maybe it will incentivise some of you to support us
Please support us, I/FRF have been slandered and dragged through the mud but I still have hope in the community. I don’t want to think about alternatives.
