Server Upgrade and Fundraising.
The draft made it painfully clear that we are overdue for a hardware upgrade. The current server is now 4.5 years old and just doesn't cut it on high demand days. It was suggested in this thread that we raise some money and upgrade the server ASAP.. hopefully before training camp.
I have done a ton of research and found a solution that will only increase our monthly costs by $40-$50 but our upgrade costs will be an additional $500 due to running two servers concurrently for a month and setup fees. So, if anyone is interested, feel free to click the green DONATE button. I will try to make sure everybody that does gets marked as a SUPPORTER but if I miss you, just post here and remind me. Here is where we are right now... I'm changing the thermometer graphic so we can see it go up but the actual goal was $500 and hasn't changed. I'll look for a better graphic.

Do you need an actual server or do you need webhosting?

Done.. it may look like I paid two $50 payments, but the first tried to go against a bank I haven't had an account with for ten years.
Damn I hate PayPal.
