Would you donate to a forum?

Would you donate money to a forum that you frequently visit even if no benefits are included?

I prefer not to donate to forums unless I deriver certain over the top benefits compared to registered members. For example, when I was actively roleplaying in Harry Potter forums, I used to donate to buy certain new character powers that is required for the character that I roleplay. Apart from that, I find no other reason to donate money to a forum.

What are your thoughts?

I have actively supported the community in the past by making donations and upgrading my account to premium status. These contributions reflect my ongoing commitment to helping the community grow and succeed. My involvement as a member has always been focused on adding value and ensuring the platform thrives for everyone involved.

Many times I've purchased VIP from a forum which goes to support the costs of a forum.

Yeah i was going ask you if you can look at my account upgrades and fix it up for me lol. i trust your judgment.

I wouldn't. Every euro is important to me and giving it away to somebody who probably has more then I do in terms of income is a foolish move. Of course, that's how I see it.

If a forum I was using I was a regular member of and I had high hopes in their success, I would consider helping by donating.

I’ve only donated to a forum once, and that was because I gained access to a knowledgeable person's exclusive articles about being a webmaster. Otherwise, I don’t think I would donate unless there’s something valuable offered in return for the donation—something that enhances the experience or provides unique benefits. In my opinion, there has to be added value for the donor.

I might donate to a friend who is struggling financially, and he/she wants to set up some forum to improve themselves. I mean, I like it when people work and not beg, and I'm inspired to help in that case.

If I really think the forum is actively improving and I plan on staying, I would definitely donate just to help here and there.
