I don't know WTF is wrong with Paypal, but I've requested my password 4 times and still no email! Very frustrating as they won't let me register a new account with the same credit card as my old one... and that's the only one I gots...

Grrr.

I live in a foreign country, I don't have a credit card, Japan doesn't use bank checks ... we do have international money orders, but they're a colossal pain (costs more than the price of going green). Any suggestions? It really is time to get a credit card ...

Maybe you can Mail The Commander a bank check... I know they have those in Japan...

Meanwhile, I can't even get into my PayPal account... seems I registered it under another email address (an old one) and now they won't let me in! I called too and there was a 30 minute waiting cue on the phone... a long distance call too... sheesh...

Very frustrating.

Id like to keep it paypal only if possible- Simplifys everything on my end, as I pay the hosting bill with paypal ($210 a month)
Guys- Aside from getting it for yourself, try to push it on newbies also. Keep in mind this site has been running for the last x years, and has made negative cash all that time (advertising made MAYBE 25$ a month)
Not begging, just saying- Help me help you!


ps- I know you guys already have avatars, since your 'grandfathered' in, but you will get a new user title + your name in green + other features. Maybe you guys can tell me what you would want that would motivate you and others to buy?

What sucks is not a single person has paid for it so far.
This site doesnt run on good intentions you know, Im out thousands from when I first took over AU.
The only way I can motivate people to go green is to make some features GREEN only.

Cmon guys, its only 25 bucks for a YEAR.

Theres no age limit on buying a prepaid card.

But its cool, if you get a chance to I'd appreciate it. If not, what can you do.
