Donate?

[Extinction1]

im just wondering that if donate, what do you guys use the donated money on?

ALL money donated to Minecraft Addicts is used to pay for the server each month.
If we raise over the target amount it will be added to the next months target.

From the donation page:

Game servers are expensive!
Every month we have a goal of reaching $500 to help support the high costs of running a high performance gaming environment. We're also running a Voice server, 6.99/month, as well as a web server that costs $125/month. The total costs for running Minecraft Addicts is over $500 every month, not including the hours of volunteer work from our great staff.

Hope this answers your question adequately.

The donated money goes towards the cost of the server. The total bill for it is around 500 dollars a month.

a tiny bit goes towards the ventrilo server as well ($8)

How about hosting the site, I'd say that costs money, too.

And I'm pretty sure MrJangles posted receipts to prove it

There is a receipt posted there. Hosting a server of this site is far from being cheap.

Don't forget the hours of volunteer time the staff puts into it!

Plus you get the good feeling of supporting your home server and knowing that you are contributing to your community.

I've had a crap couple of weeks. My only working comp is on its last legs to the point I can't even run MC. The economy and jobs are going belly up and certain accounts need to be rectified. I've always desired to donate here because everyone here has made this placemy second home. I was supposed to donate this month but Paypal have gone and messed things up even more for me.

Got a call from an apprenticeship firm. Hopefully I get in and I can start putting in towards the bill.
