Supporting the site
Everything here is free and it stays free. Nothing on this page is asking you to pay for anything you already have.
Where the money goes
Donations pay the running costs of the site and the bot, and nothing else. They do not go to me, they are not income, and there is no version of this where they become one. If the costs were covered tomorrow I would say so here and stop asking.
What that actually is
Four things, all of which have to be paid for whether anybody donates or not:
-
The domain.
pawsoffury.net, renewed yearly. Without it every link the clan has ever posted stops working. - The bot's server. The machine the Discord bot runs on, billed monthly. This is the one that matters: if it lapses, the bot goes quiet — no events, no points, no trials, no Boss of the Week.
- Image and file storage. Every screenshot, drop, event banner and boss picture anybody has uploaded. It only ever grows, because deleting people's posts to save a few pence would be a strange way to run a clan gallery.
- The database and the API. What holds the points, the events, the calendar, the game saves and the trivia scores, and what the site talks to.
You do not have to
Genuinely. The clan does not need your money and nothing is locked behind giving any. There is a supporter role in Discord for anybody who does, and that is the whole of it — a colour by your name. It skips no queue, opens no channel, and nothing on this site or in the bot works better for somebody who has donated. That part is deliberate and it is not going to change.
If you want to help and would rather not send money, turn up to an event or buy something from the shop. Both are worth more to the clan than a tenner.
If you still want to
The donation link is not set up yet — check back shortly, or ask in Discord.
Support me on Ko-fiEvery card payment loses about 3% to the payment processor — that is the card networks, not the platform, and it is unavoidable. If you would rather none of it went that way, ask in Discord and it can be sent directly instead.
Terms
- Donations here go toward the running costs of pawsoffury.net and the Paws of Fury Discord bot — the domain, the bot's server, file storage and the database. Nothing else, and none of it is income for me.
- You are not buying anything. Nothing is sold and nothing is delivered. Supporters get a role in Discord and that's it — it opens no channels and unlocks nothing on the site or in the bot. Everything I provide is free for everyone regardless.
- Donations are voluntary gifts and are final. The money goes straight out on bills, so please only give what you're happy to part with.
- Please only donate if you're 18 or over and it's your own card.
- Merch is separate: the shop runs through Printify and their terms cover orders and returns.
