Hey guys, today I come to you in need, unfortunately. I have just been informed that we have a new Wireless ISP in the area that will be able to offer us faster service without download limits that will actually let me start playing games once again (no FPSage is killin' me, NEED CSS!).
I recently contacted HughesNet to inquire on our early termination fee which includes the remaining balance of the hardware which we decided not to purchase up-front. This is what I was told....
Yes, $700. Now, luckily for me I have a room mate which will be splitting the difference. That makes my half of the fee $350.
The service we will be switching to is Virginia Broadband. The equipment and activation cost is $299, my half being $150.
So... $350 + $150 = $500 is what I need. I come to you generous OC3D folk for your support in helping me reach this goal! I pledge that once the new service is installed I shall game the nights away with you all on the OC3D CSS servers once again like I did many moons ago before Hughes!
Any donation amount is greatly appreciated, obviously the more the merrier! I will update this threads with donation makers names and amounts (unless you wish to remain anonymous) and keep a running total of the amount raised.
Help your poor local gamer out, I don't have the funding because recently an important woman in my life stripped me of thousands of dollars, a car, a computer, a proposed ring, and my soul... Stupid biiiiiiii... Anyhow, please donate!!! :worship:
