That was two years ago, 2018.
UGH... The years are going by way to quickly. That seems like just last year

I never knew you were such a sensitive guy..............big hug /big big hug
Just did the deed. Don't post much, usually only if I feel I can actually add something meaningful to a thread or have a question but as others have said this place is my go to for the latest news and information. Being mostly couch bound for the last few months recovering from an ordeal in the hospital OSA has been my life line to the real world. Thanks...
Not only that but I would like to see some actual financial data. I don't just blindly give money to anything.
This site, and others like it, have been free to use for a long time, and when they become advertising vehicles like this one did awhile back...WE become the product. I'm not paying money for the privilege of being a product unless I see an accounting sheet.
Sorry if that sounds ******, but that's the truth. Lots of folks reaching for our pockets these days.
I suppose money actually could be tight. Nobody is going to pay to advertise and have their company associated with a good portion of the thread traffic here...except for maybe InfoWars, and they don't really need to advertise. That's another issue though.

I'm always happy to support the site . . . one suggestion @Okuma might be to see if you can add a link to any OSA merchandise/gear. I know I've purchased stuff off of Amazon, but some of the newer folks might not know about the items available.
Cafe Press or other similar merchandise shops where you can upload your own logo and sell items might also prove useful.

When I say "showing it's age" I'm really referring to how the software works with changing internet protocols and the variety of devices that people are using nowadays. I will try my best to keep the user experience as similar to as it is now as I can, that's part of why the upgrade expense is high, I pay someone to "skin" the site so it looks like the old site did but runs on the new software. The actual software is only about $200 but the modifications I make to it will run about $6,000. (I own two sites that use the same software and modifications so I can split the cost between them.)
I've gotten a few messages from people wanting to use paypal, unfortunately that is not an option right now. In 2019 paypal closed our account and seized all the money that was in it for "violating their terms of service" since we have gun-related material.
It's really getting difficult to run a gun-related site anymore, services are constantly being denied to us.

Folks could maybe send it directly to you via Apple Pay or something . . .
