Max, Nice points. But some clarification, first. Nobody here WANTS donations per se. Nobody here is getting down on the knees and begging with clasped hands, "oh, please give, give, give." Yes, there are reminders here, but they are just that: friendly reminders for like-minded folks. Nothing more than that. What they are saying -- collectively -- is this: QUOTE: If you spend a lot of time in sajha, and if sajha has provided you entertainment and valuable information, then now is the time to show your support to sajha UNQUOTE. With that reminder, ask yourself; look into your own eyes, and think for your own self. If you honestly think that Sajha has REDUCED the quality of your life and has harmed you in any way, then, do NOT give it a dime. Nobody will say anything to you. If, however, you AGREE that Sajha has been of help to you, then, consider giving anything from 1 dollar to 100 dollars to more to show your appreciation and to help pay for some expenses here and there. That's all. Either way, YOU and ONLY YOU make your own decision based on the value (entertainment-wise and information-wise and contact-wise) you think Sajha has added to your life. This is strictly a VOLUNTARY decision and action. oohi ashu
