For those who may be newer on the forums, you may not know that since this forum started in 2007, it has been run on a volunteer basis with all of our fees either being paid by me personally or by donations made by forum members. Although we have not done this in a couple of years, it is once again time for our donations contest. And this time around, I have lots of cool prizes directly from the band's own vaults. So I am once again offering prizes for those who donate $10 or more between now and January 15th.

Anyone donating any amount will recieve DTF Alumni status, indicated by green stars/bars under your user name and green user status. Anyone donating $10 or more will be eligible for a drawing at the end of the contest for one several prizes, including:
-Dream Theater CD's.
-Dream Theater DVD/BluRays.
-Transatlantic Official Bootleg DVD (this is the DVD that is being sold exclusively at the merch booth on the TA Whirlwind tour)
-Systematic Chaos tour book, in brand new condition
-Dream Theater Silver Anniversary poster
-Tour laminates
-Vintage DT tour and Prog Nation tour shirts
Rules:
1. Donate $10 or more by January 15, 2016 by using the Paypal donation link on the forum
2. PM me the details of your donation with the words "2015 donations contest" in the title so I can keep track. (user name, real name, date of donation, amount)
PLEASE NOTE: You must follow the rules above. There will be no exceptions. Somebody a few years ago did not send me the proper information, waited until well after the fact, and did not end up receiving their prize as a result. I really NEED to clean out my PM inbox because I have over 1,000 PM's. That isn't your problem; it's mine. BUT what it means to you if you are donating is that you must PM me accurate details on time with the proper title in your PM or else I might miss your message and it may then end up lost in the PM abyss. Don't let this be you! :biggrin:
Whether you donate or not, thank you all for the years and for your continued support of the forum, monetary or otherwise.
FAQ: "How much should I donate?" I get this question a lot. There isn't really a right answer. I've had single donations of as little as a few dollars and as much as a couple of hundred. It's up to you. Every bit helps cover the costs of running this place. If I had to answer, I guess my "preferred" amount would be $35. But please don't let that deter you if you want to give and can't give that much. As I said, every bit helps and is appreciated. Thanks.

Does a hug count as a donation?
I love you guys, thanks for making this place be.
-
Does a hug count as a donation?
I will accept it with thanks. But no dice on being eligible for prizes. :biggrin:
-
Donated $5 :)
-
Where do I find the Paypal link?
-
Sure, why not. I'll donate something on weekend. Don't think I can make it $35 seeing how cheap rouble is now, but I'll see what I can do.
-
Where do I find the Paypal link?
"Donate!" at the top of the site.
-
Done and done.

"Donate!" at the top of the site.
Or if you're like me and using one of the basic forum themes, you may need to temporarily change it to one of the DTF specific themes for the donate button to appear.
I just donated $11, because it's one louder, isn't it? I didn't donate for prizes, but that SC tour book would be sweeeeeet.
-
Only sent $5 so probably don't need to PM...

Do we PM bosk to get alumni status? That goes for any donation amount. I believe that's what also scores you a bigger PM inbox.
-
Oh ok then :)
-
Oh, gifts and contest entry aside, I'd pay for more inbox space anyday!
But yea I'll probably donate somewhere around 5$, 10$ if I'm feeling lucky. Need to make a PayPal account tho.
-
Done!
-
Done just now. Been here too long and had too much fun here that not doing this would feel weird. A sincere thank you for maintaining this favourite internet spot of mine :)
-
i just donated 15 $, i am very sorry that i post very seldom, but i am there every evening and check whats going on, so thanks to all who are posting and making my evening :metal.
hopefully in future i will have a little more time to post myself.
ps. i have tickets for the 6th of march in paris and for the 15th of march in my hometown frankfurt and i am fucking exited :metal :hefdaddy
-
Instead of a £ donation, I'd be happy to donate 6 more items to the prizes (bosk1, I can post to you if you PM me an address). All are mint condition -

Thanks, guys. I will go through my PM's tonight or later this weekend and update forum status. Thanks for the support.
-
Made a donation, my first time donating to the forum. I've been around for a long time so that was long over due. Thanks Bosk and the mods for making this forum an awesome place to be on the web. :tup
-
Turns out it's quite a pain in the ass to donate through the link if you're living in Russia, because Paypal doesn't allow Russian customers to transfer money to its internal account, all the purchases and transfers are happening directly from the credit card; and my credit card is apparently ineligible to make the transfer from (I suspect it's because it has roubles set as a currency). :lol
Would it be alright if I just send the money to the e-mail (the one that shows when you use the "Donate!" link) through the Paypal without using the link itself? It appears I'm allowed to do that, dunno why I can't make the donation through the link work.
-
Yea apparently to link your bank account and pay by something else than credit card you need to verify your details and wait a few days for PayPal to send you an amount of a few cents, then you enter those amounts and it'll allow you to transfer money the regular way. I'm waiting for that damn verification. :sadpanda:
-
Bosk, I just sent $0,20 to the e-mail without using a "Donate!" link, because I still can't seem to make it work with my credit card. Can you confirm that it worked and you've got the money when it's possible? I'll do a real donation after that. Just want to know that my money didn't fly off to nowhere, I guess.

Looks like your wait is over Kotow. Congrats!
Looks like my donation cleared the bank as well.
Also, bump for a good cause. Donate folks.
-
I get paid tomorrow. If I remember I'll donate!
-
I am also one of those users who checks this place every day, sometimes spending 30mins - 1h on the forums but who is too lazy to log in and to post. And I have been around forever even though my post count does not tell. Big round of applause to everybody who keeps this place alive and who takes care that this such a friendly place, it is a pleasure to satisfy my prog Information needs here.
I just donated 35 dollars even though I already own a lot of those items. But for me it is not about the reward, but to say thanks to Bosk in special. However one of those signed CDs would be niiiiiiiceeeeee! :tup
Greetings from Germany, Hamburg... You guys rock :hefdaddy

Donated $15
PM'd you Bosky :D
-
This is cool, I get paid later this week and will donate then!
-
Donated $10. Thanks for creating such an amazing forum. Love you guys. (I don't need you're beer!)
-
Just donated $10 :tup
-
:emo: Still waiting for my Alumni Status and green stars.
Waiting as well, I donated with credit card via paypal and see it cleared my credit card already. No rush or anything for status, just want to make sure the donation was received.
-
Thanks, everyone. I will get to changing status. I just need to set aside a few minutes to carefully review and log everything.
-
It's not really the reason I donated (I've actually donated every year for the past three) but it's surprising how I keep checking to see if my status has changed. :lol

Thanks, Zydar. That really cheered me up...it's been a rough morning. Between the forumers and the parking cones I can always count on DTF!

Thank you for making this all possible!

My donation may have to wait a few weeks, but I'll get it in there before January for sure.
-
Any payment methods other than PayPal? They don't like me and they've blocked all my cards.
-
Donation made and PM sent.
There really is no excuse for not making some sort of a donation. This is an extremely well run forum, evident from the fact that it has become the official one that the band recommends, all the VIPs that post, exclusive information and events.

Donation of $20 and PM sent...

I don't want to be a pain in the ass, but while we're bumping the thread, bosk, are there perchance any news on this front?
-
Thanks, everyone. I will get to changing status. I just need to set aside a few minutes to carefully review and log everything.
Might as well bump for this too. I understand its a lot of work, but I at least would like to know my money made it to DTF.
-
ah, yes, I did this too. Did the PayPal thing work out?
-

I know. Sorry. I have to do it at home though. And that requires me going to Paypal and verifying each payment, and the comparing that with the PM's. I can't really do that here at work. And with the holidays, my time at home gets eaten up quickly. Not trying to make excuses, but just offer the explanation for why it has taken me so long. I will make more of an effort to get it done soon. Sorry.

Should I send the PM too? I mean, I did a test donation so I didn't shoot you a PM, just hoping you'd be able to verify that you've got the $0,20 donation (since I doubt anyone else sent this amount of money :lol).
I was aiming at sending PM when I'll do a real donation, so there's that.

Thanks Bosk, I know its a lot of work, trying not to nag about. Like I said just want to make sure the money lands where it's supposed to be because I really want to make sure this place gets the support.
-
There was an error and I got all your donations instead. I hope you guys are okay with that.
-
:zydar:
-
That means you have enough money to get us all Astroglide and a can 3M Spot Remover for Christmas!
:tup
-
If that's what you wish for :lol
-
Well, I was also kinda hoping for Kaopectate, but I didn't want to seem greedy.
:progsnob:
-
I feel I should donate. Unfortunately, with xmas coming up, money is tight, and will probably stay that way until after this thing closes, but I'll see what I can do. I'll still more than happily give you guys hugs for making an amazing forum though. :)
-
Donated a few weeks ago and want to make sure everything was received.

Still time for anyone to add their donations... 11 days left
-
Yeah, my donation was done over a month ago and I still don't know whether or not it has even been received. I understand that you are busy, which is no problem at all, but it would be nice to know if you actually got my money, or that it failed in some way.
-
Just donated 20 bucks. Happy new years everyone!

I'm sure it has, but I need to go back and check each one. My plan was to get caught up during New Years weekend, but the wife unexpectedly wanted to get out of town. Then I was going to do it Monday, but ended up with some sort of stomach bug that kept me in bed and had the room spinning if I even tried to read anything. I will send confirmations shortly. In the mean time, thanks for the support, everyone.
-
Okay, I think I got everybody. I went through each and every PM (and there were a LOT of you), checked them against Paypal, and sent confirmation emails, and then updated profiles. If I missed anyone, please let me know. The support from all of you is greatly appreciated.

Thanks Bosk, just posting here to see my updated status :azn:

Bosk, so did you get my 0,2$ test donation? I've mentioned my situation on page 1. I didn't send a PM since it was a test to see if it worked without using a Donate! link because I've got some issues (or to be precise, PayPal has some issues) with my credit card.
I do realize I'm probably coming off as a bit annoying, but I do want to donate, and I just need a confirmation it worked right. In any case, I apologise for bothering you with that.

I did get $0.20 and cannot tell who it is from because the text is all in Cyrillic.

That's weird because I wrote "Evermind's test donation" in the description. Apparently PayPal is funny like that.
But since it's apparently the only Cyrillic donation I'll give it a go and do a real donation now with some random amount no one will send.
-
:lol Okay, that works. Thanks. :tup

Sorry. But I do speak Jive.

No worries.

Donated.
I'm not nearly as active here as I once was, but I have really enjoyed my time on this forum, and I really appreciate that it is here.
-

That's pretty much why I don't post much in P/R anymore. I don't have you to slap me around and keep me in check when I go too far.

Donated $10 yesterday. Wish I could give more but funds are tight at the moment. I love coming here though! :)

So the contest is over? Does Bosk already run the draw? Just curious because those signed singles which Kix donated looks so tasty! :angel:
-
This is just disappearing here.. :sadpanda:

This is just disappearing here.. :sadpanda:
It's only been five days since the contest ended. I think bosk is just busy with other stuff and we'll get the contest results soon enough. :tup
I'm looking forward to my status and larger PM box, should be handy enough to run the roulette when my turn comes.
-
Yes on the contest ending. No on the drawing (so far). I am up to my eyeballs in trial preparation this week. This weekend, I will tally the last few donations that came in and begin the drawing.
Thanks again for supporting the forums, both to those who donated and to those who support the forums other ways, including just coming here and contributing to discussion. You guys are the best!
-
Glad to help :)
When the raffle/prize thing being done?
-
I've never donated, and it's long overdue.
Here I come, bosk1 bank account.
-
Done. Bummer I didn't get to donate by the 15th, but it's OK anyway. This forum has brought me many smiles throughout the 9 years it has stood, and it's a small thank you to everyone who's running this place. :D
-
Donated on Monday (25th) regardless of the contest. Just wanted to support the good folks at DTF! If I'm in for the contest, then great, but just glad I could help out a little (more than just $0.20) :biggrin:

I know I said I was going to try to get to it last weekend, but it didn't happen. But I actually expect to get home at a reasonable hour tonight and just catch up on forum-related stuff with the wife and kids out of town. So tonight should be the night, and then I will post the winners.

Seems to be theme dependent. That bar doesn't show up when using the Sick Mother Fucker core theme. Thanks.
Donation made.

Thanks to all who donated. If you sent me a PM as instructed, you should have your Alumni status. If I missed anyone, please let me know.
Of those who met the contest criteria, I have drawn the names of 5 winners. I will tally up what prizes I have and begin sending PMs later this week. For those who may not be familiar, name #1 gets first pick of the prizes. Then winner #2 gets to pick next from what is left, and so on.
Congrats to our winners:
1. Nihil-Morari
2. Hourglass Prison
3. BlobVanDam
4. wideworldofmike
5. Jonny108
Yeah, I am going to get killed on international shipping this time. :lol It is nice to see some old timers as well as some new faces get some prizes. I should also point out that there were several who donated smaller amounts that did not meet the contest threshold, and a few who donated and specifically asked NOT to be entered in the prize drawing. I just want to say that whether you donated a lot or a little bit, and whether you got drawn for a prize or not, your support is greatly appreciated. These forums continue because of your generosity. :tup
-
Congratulations to the winners!
-
Neat! :)
-
Congrats all!
And Blob.
-
Damn. :\
Well, congrats to the winners... :smiley:
-
Yeah, I am going to get killed on international shipping this time. :lol
If it helps, you can just give Blob's prize to me. ;)
Kidding. Congratulations to the winners! And to everyone who donated, thank you for your contribution toward keeping this place running for all of us. :)

Congrats to the winners!

-
The first person didn't pick up the SC tourbook? Whoa.
-
Those are gorgeous. But they seldom get picked. I think maybe people just don't realize how cool something like that actually is and have a tough time picturing it. But they are a great thing to have. Scotty did a really amazing job with those.
Speaking of Scotty doing an amazing job, he really did a nice job on the 25th anniversary posters too. I have some of those laying around somewhere too, but couldn't manage to find them when I was listing the prizes.
EDIT: Okay, I spoke too soon. Just had one of them claimed. :lol
-
The first person didn't pick up the SC tourbook? Whoa.
I've been sitting here the whole time thinking "please nobody take the tourbook please nobody take the tourbook". :lol
-
No worries. I have a bunch of them. Even if everybody wanted one, we would be fine.
-
In that case, tour books for all!

Those are gorgeous. But they seldom get picked. I think maybe people just don't realize how cool something like that actually is and have a tough time picturing it. But they are a great thing to have. Scotty did a really amazing job with those.
Speaking of Scotty doing an amazing job, he really did a nice job on the 25th anniversary posters too. I have some of those laying around somewhere too, but couldn't manage to find them when I was listing the prizes.
EDIT: Okay, I spoke too soon. Just had one of them claimed. :lol
Haha, I already have most of the stuff on the list, including the poster and the tour book! Never had anything autographed by the band though, and the Build Me Up single seemed quite rare from a quick google search :D

Yeah, if it wasn't claimed by the end of the contest, I was considering donating some cash and keeping it myself. :lol

Is it?! I have no idea about that stuff, rarity etc. I have another 9 (autographed) of those in my box of tricks. :rollin I just fish things out occasionally for competitions and charity requests etc. I've hoarded bits and pieces from all my artists over the years. Glad I was able to donate some bits.

Haha, that's great. Well, for rarity and value checks I mostly use discogs.com, and this one wasn't even one there. :D
