DU question for you moles
« on: February 19, 2008, 10:33:35 AM »
I REALLY want to be able to use the "search" function at DU.....

Does a donation get you lifetime privileges to use that function, or is it only good for one quarter?

And, is there a minimum donation amount to earn that privilege?  Would $5.00 do it?

I hate like hell giving them my money, but I could learn to see it as paying for a service.

I'm not sure, but I think it's good for a year.

It is good for a year, when you click on the donate button it will show the minimum amount which is either $5 or $10.

A REAL mole could convince another DU'er to donate for them!   :uhsure:

Sample Post;

Dear DU, I know I only have a post count of 3 but I need your help.  The only reason I have a post count of 3 is because my evil Repuke of a landlord limits my time on the internets and I KNOW he has * monitoring my every move!!!!11111!!!!1

I am so fed up with his idea of free internets that I am thinking about becoming a homeless person but I don't want to put my 12 cats out.  I like having a refrigerator to keep their steak in but it really doesn't matter where I keep the cat food that I eat .... it can be kept in the car.

I have antihypersocialpsychopolar disorder and I can't work.  Can you PLEASE tell me how I can get the landlord to lay off me so I can get a higher post count?!  I have been forced to perform sex acts with the landlord so I can get my electricity paid for but he says I'm so butt ugly that I only count for .50/act.  I need help!!!!

 :-) :-)    :lmao:

That might get you a donation or 5.

Tex,

Nice start...but you need to blame your woes on ChimpyMcBushitler.  Before he came into office you were a normal college student but the * economy, his awful war and the inability to chimpeach him were what drove you over the edge.

I think they instituted the minimum after a bunch of people signed up and donated $.01 to DU through PayPal. Apparently the person hosting PayPal has to pay a nominal fee and it ended up that Skinner had to pony up the difference.  :thatsright: :cheersmate:
