I imagine everyone has received the request for contributions to ProBoards. It seems like even fora like this one are not immune from the COVID virus.
I've chipped in. I'm not sure what all the little goodies are (badges??) but I do see that the banner ad is gone (after I logged out and back in). Pretty nice, although I wasn't really bothered by the ads previously.
I hope the GKC forum will be well represented. I really enjoy the discussions here and it would be a shame if ProBoards became a casualty of the pandemic.

I chipped in a little too. Gunnerkrigg is really the only forum I actually frequent on Proboards, but it's been a really positive force in my life for quite a while now, and I hate to see them in trouble.
I was really shocked to learn how small Proboards really is! Seriously, they only have 9 employees?! Wow. It's not really THAT surprising when I think about it, but I guess I tend to just assume by default that any decently well-maintained website I go to these days is owned by some sort of big company with lots of people working on it.
Here's hoping their new funding campaign goes well!

I did a little bit (will have to wait till I get paid to do more). But I really appreciate the forum and I wanted to do something right now

I also chipped in a bit. Probably like a lot of you guys, this is the one instance where I use this platform, but I really like it here. Thanks for making the thread!

I think this is a nice idea, and they're provided a free forum for almost the entire time the comic's been around, so I contributed a little too. I'll probably send more.

Ah, go on then. Have been coming here for years to discuss the comic, it's worth a few dollars to keep the forum going!
Plus pushes Gunnerkrigg Court forum up into 11th place on top contributors!

I can't belive I missed this until now. Its worth a few dollars if it helps the fourm a little. Selfishly I don't think I can go back to trying to analyze the comic without Gemminie summarizes, I've literally forgotten how.
