Server bill due

i'm going to go get xtra right now, i think mine is about to run out .

Minda Hey Hey™

Just went and bought 6 months of bloop xtra even though I'm not really into that kind of thing. I love Bloop and broke as I am, this is my outlet so I hope it helps!

random question: if i wanted to buy bloop xtra for someone else, how do i do that?

LN

wow thats a very expensive server sweetheart.. =/ i hardly think the people of bloop are worth that much.. lol

i bought some more xtra. Although i still stand by my comment.. lol

Why in god's name are you using such a ridiculously expensive server?! There are reliable places out there that cost like, chump change compared to that!

It's a dedicated server, we pay a lot because we want to provide a reliable service. The cheap ones are great until something goes wrong!

If someone wants to buy BloopXtra for a friend, go to manage my diary > subscriptions > give a gift subscription. Search the name of your friend and select the length of subscription you wish to give.

I would buy but, I have rent coming up, I have literally been screwed by the bank too, it sucks, I wrote an entry yesterday about it, I had to go cry to my Dad to help me pay it. I do have money though I will deposit on my card after and possibly pay for x-tra, im going to see how many people buy today first to see if it will do anything for me to pay. I literally have 120.00 and rent is 281.81 ---- I have to pay him back all the money I borrow ugh!I will click yours if you click mine!

I bought some more, but I just want to make sure that my new subscription doesn't start until my current one is used up in August.

I just got a 6 month subscription. I hope it helps!!!

Your bank sounds like my boyfriends bank.. which he is livid with at the moment. I wish I could help but, I just paid most of our bills and have nothing left.

Sorry to hear about everyone elses banking troubles! There's nothing worse than not being able to pay your bills.

Thank you to those of you that have bought subscriptions so far.

Someone above asked about their current subscription being extended - if your subscription hasn't expired yet, your account will retain the credit for when it does and automatically continue the subscription.

Update: We're $90 short now.

Why not jack up the ad revenue instead of begging every month? There's plenty of "below the fold" space and other real estate to put ads where they won't be as intrusive. Or just tinker with the bids.
More people would be enticed to get subscriptions so they aren't served ads anymore.

^ libster, do you have any services in mind? At the moment we use Google AdSense, but it isn't a huge source of revenue.

Steve: I'd see if you can get bids out of ad-serving companies. I know of a few from my classes this semester, but I'm not sure exactly how it works.

Steve I'd help, but have just gone on maternity leave so no pay for me this week. Maybe if my government stimulation package had gone through already, but they are so damn slow!

I would like to ask though... so you don't scare the living shit out of us... that maybe a couple of days before the due day of paying you might actually post that you are short... not on the actual day itself?

I would but im in the same boat.. broke

*;shimmer

^^ Blue Bella, I'm always short! lol. However, money was meant to be clearing in time for the bill to be paid - hence the drastic measures! I totally get where you're coming from, and this server bill is stressing me out big time.

Steve

Im sorry Steve. Im in a whole world of hurt when it comes to money myself...I hope you can get enough people to help out

Grabbed Bloop Xtra, 6 months. Hope it helped, and was in time. *hugs*

ConfessionsOfStAce

wow I love how people leave anonymous comments on this. Like Steve coudlnt' figure out who you are. Duh

Comment Whore™

Do they give you any kind of a grace period to get the bill paid before they put a block on?

Comment Whore™

Hey, Steve my roommate [who is a downright nerd] says there's a way to use your own server for a website, like from your computer or what not, [I don't understand nerd talk] but I think he meant its free? Hes not home right now, trying to remember.I will click yours if you click mine!

Hey I've been noticing little things, like the Autosave and the ability to put Private comments on individual entries only, and I think they're awesome features!! You should totally tell everyone when you introduce these features, so that they'll notice and appreciate. xD
