Albert Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 Just kicked in something as well. I was just looking at the 7800 Basic documentation on Random's page two days ago, as I'll probably develop a 7800 game using it sometime next year.. ..Al 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albert Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 RT, you can add the PayPal donations to the gofundme campaign so the total donated is properly reflected. When you're logged in, click on the "Donations" link at the top and then "Donations" again. When the page loads, you'll see a "Add Offline Donation" link in the upper-right. You can then put in the amount of each donation and the person who donated it (and it can optionally be displayed publicly as "Anonymous"). ..Al 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I went to the dashboard page, I finally saw the Add Offline Donation link and added the PayPal stuff to the total, then deleted my old updates. I bet you typed that while I was doing it. Maybe you have psychic powers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, it's just so you can add donations from outside GoFundMe so the total donated is correct. They'll only take a fee for anything that was paid through GoFundMe. ..Al 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Random Terrain Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 Do they take a cut if you add that though? Don't want to see them getting any money that would otherwise go straight to RT. It says no fees apply. PayPal took a small bite out of a couple of the donations, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albert Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 It says no fees apply. PayPal took a small bite out of a couple of the donations, though. Yeah, depends how people pay. If people send you a regular payment (for "goods and services"), you'll lose something like 30 cents and 2.9% of each transaction. If they send it as a "friends and family" payment, there is no fee for the recipient (although PayPal will sometimes charge a fee to the sender). ..Al 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a little fee for sender and no fee for the receiver. I think Paypal is the best way for the receiver. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moycon Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 I came to realize that after all this is over, and RT has a new bed. Every time he goes to sleep at night, every night, first thing after he get's under the covers, he's going to be thinking about all the people who contributed. I know it shouldn't but that just creeps me out a little. I'm going to contribute anonymously. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
