As Eagle could confirm, *many* of the folk using the groups at Annexcafe
are now actually paying considerable sums of money to Mr Gooden in order
to keep the operation running!
FYI
"It takes tons of dedication and hard work to keep this community
thriving, safe and permanent. This work is done by many volunteer staff,
administrators, sysops and moderators. This community would not be what
it is without them.
Keeping a community like this together also takes money. While we
utilize our own monies and resources to keep the Annex Cafe going, we
are incredibly grateful to those who have "donated to the cause" to
assist with the upkeep of the software upgrades, server hardware and
bandwidth/hosting fees."
You may make a donation yourself if you wish, here:
