Our developer has started a new support program. He can no longer answer questions or fix a quick problem here or there for free. Understandably, we have and should have to pay for this service. The service is for support only, not any coding that we would need done in the future.
I have asked myself over and over again, do we need to incur this expense? I have been honest with myself, and I am being honest with you. Yes, we need this service. I am unable to run this entire site, front-end and back-end, on my own. XenForo is still a newish platform, and as you can see, it's a very clean one. In order to keep it clean, we need to keep it up-to-date and running without glitches. There are some things about XenForo that are out of the realm of my experience. There are a lot of things we need done to the site, tweaks, fixes, etc., (beyond the development work we have already paid for that is pending) that would make running this site easier.
The thing is, we need more funding to cover the monthly fee of around 50 pounds; that's ~$80 per month (~$960 per year) that will fluctuate depending on market forces.
If you can afford to make a donation, we sure can use it now. Thank you.
Again, if you have back-end web skills and would like to contribute to the BRS in this way, please contact me.
