The donations were a last ditch effort and while I did pitch the idea almost a year ago, we were still hearing empty promises of a server upgrade. Everyone, except myself, trusted that those promises were true and considering half the staff team had good experiences with them, who can blame them for that. Granted donations may have gone better months ago, at the very least we are making some progress and trying to move forward instead of still waiting.
Speaking of donations, there is a problem with the meter not updating. We actually have more donation money then it is showing, however only Taran can be sure of the exact amount and that should be fixed when he gets home.
Its nice and all that you came back to the forums to spread that cheerful message... however some of us are stubborn and don't want to give up on UO so easily. Its a shame though that you won't come back because I know you were very proactive on the shard, helping every new player you could and even trying to promote RPing in a PvP environment. You should really consider coming back and helping the shard instead of pitching a 'the end is near' speech :p
