Hi will62russ,

We greatly appreciate your interest in supporting Simtropolis. Donations play an integral part in funding site maintenance and service fees. This helps to sustain the same platform as there is presently for content to be shared, and also fund future upgrades to server-side technologies and the board software. It's amazing to see there's still regular quality content being submitted on the STEX on a weekly basis, and this year to date we've seen 563 files uploaded from 87 different authors.

For anyone willing to contribute financially in any amount, every little bit helps keep Simtropolis online as a place for new content to continue being shared on both the forums and the STEX. That's a fact.

There's a post by Dirk our Webmaster here with more info about site funding. This explains about the overheads, and how monthly goals wouldn't be reached without the generous support of others in the community.
