kmyfm20s Posted December 27, 2015 Report Posted December 27, 2015 It's a cost of 2 gallons of AV gas for no adds! In a C it's about 15 minutes of entertainment, a J about 13.3 minutes and in my S about 9.6 minutes (Of course I cover a lot more ground but that's a different subject). I have spent a lot more minutes on MooneySpace. Not that I'm advocating a higher donation:) Quote
ryoder Posted December 27, 2015 Report Posted December 27, 2015 I would donate even if there were ads. I like this site a lot. I have been a member of many boards and this one has the right attitude, keeps me informed, saves me money, and I think it keeps me safer. 5 Quote
carl Posted December 29, 2015 Report Posted December 29, 2015 Craig, Ads are good things. I hope there is a place , An Add Page, so I can go and check out the cool stuff. GoPro should pay well to be on this site, and Aspen. I hope I don't miss out on some new electronics because I'm a supporter and will miss their ad. Carl 2 Quote

Whoa, whoa, whoa..... There are some of us out here that made larger than the $10 contribution more than a year ago....No credit for that, but it doesn't mean we haven't been supporting Mooneyspace. Judge not..... 1 Quote

Mooneymite Posted December 29, 2015 Report Posted December 29, 2015 (edited) Some of us may feel like we're "paid forward" now that we have been told $10/year is the standard. Edited December 29, 2015 by Mooneymite Quote

ryoder Posted December 30, 2015 Report Posted December 30, 2015 Charity shaming was on a South Park episode. Don't you feel ashamed when standing in line at Publix and they ask you to donate and you just donated yesterday and don't want to do so again? I end up donating almost every time I am asked verbally to avoid the shame. Quote
bonal Posted December 30, 2015 Report Posted December 30, 2015 Donating to support the site is what it's about not really to avoid the adds. But I do think that my IPad slows way down if I'm not logged in and it has to load the add space. So most likely not just view as guest and log in whenever I'm on board. Quote

Robert C. Posted January 3, 2016 Report Posted January 3, 2016 Thanks Craig, I re-upped. Robert Quote
Flyingbeard Posted January 9, 2016 Report Posted January 9, 2016 I just sent in my donation for 2016. Quote
M20F-1968 Posted February 14, 2016 Report Posted February 14, 2016 Just submitted my donation for 2016. Thanks Craig. John Breda M20F-1968 Quote
BDPetersen Posted March 24, 2016 Report Posted March 24, 2016 It's probably a very lame excuse, but even after hanging around MS for 6 months the donation component wasn't intuitively obvious. If there was a "welcome aboard" message explaining it all, it was probably missed in the euphoria of being a new Mooney owner. Additionally, it is not hard to conflate this group with the MAPA organization, which grabs your funds up front. (And I still haven't gotten them to respond to my quest regarding being unable to log in.) At any rate, I ponied up. Thanks. It's a fun ride. Quote
carusoam Posted March 24, 2016 Report Posted March 24, 2016 BDP, It's a very soft sell. You come, you hang out, you get welcomed aboard about the time you make your first post. About the time you realize the value that MS provides, you are ready to make a donation. When you make a donation, you get the title 'Supporter'. I think the person who makes the biggest donation this year will get to rename that one... Supporter has too many other definitions... Its all good... Best regards, -a- 1 Quote
BDPetersen Posted March 24, 2016 Report Posted March 24, 2016 Maybe throw in a tote bag or coffee mug? (It's NPR pledge week.) Quote
carusoam Posted March 24, 2016 Report Posted March 24, 2016 Psst... Your 'supporter' is already showing! Best regards, -a- 1 Quote
Supercop0184 Posted April 2, 2016 Report Posted April 2, 2016 I just sent mine in! This site and the PEOPLE were instrumental in me fining the right plane and getting a great deal on it! Thanks y'all. 2 Quote
