Wow, just found out what the honor wall was and where it is.  Are you kidding me, only 20 people out of all the people that come here could even cough up a couple of bucks?  Don't people realize this forum just doesn't come out of nowhere?  Somebody has to step up and evidently Mysterious John is our guy.  Bet he puts in a lot of hours and though it's not supposed to be a paying gig sheesh!  I'm disappointed.  I also have a KLR650 and there seems to be a lot more people over there willing to help support a knowledgeable, informative and entertaining medium.  I count these 2 forums as part of my entertainment budget as well as keep me up on my bikes needs and options.

And ya really think comin on here pissin people off is going to help the contributions ?

First, you're right Arteacher, maybe there are a lot of anonymous donors.  Anyway I hope so but can't be enough of them if MysteriousJ is asking for support.
Second, Routy, my intention wasn't to tick anyone off and I'm sorry if it came off that way.  As stated I didn't even know there was an honor wall and maybe others don't either.  Anyway M asked for contributions and I don't think he's getting much response from what I've read.  I only wanted to bring up some awareness and hopefully get some people to realize that this forum isn't free in reality.  Maybe I could've been more diplomatic in my statements, sorry again.
Third, Thumperclone, I haven't been here obviously because I only bought the bike a few months ago.  
Anyway, your responses are keeping this thread alive enough that hopefully some more people will reconsider donating.  If that happens then all to the good and I can take the criticism.
I've gained a ton of info from this site and possibly saved my bike's life just because I tuned in, bought a Verslavy and installed it almost from day 1.  Plus I've bought other products from site members that I only found out about on this site.  To me that's worth contributing.  To be up front, I only contributed $5 this first time so that doesn't make me a gold card member but if only a 100 people out of the thousands who visit here did the same I'm sure M would be in a much better position for keeping the site going.

I sent a small gift on the 26/12/11 but being on the wall isn't important.. It was only a few buck to say thanks from Limey Island

I've donated twice now ,  not on the supporter page yet.  

Anybody else in the same boat ?

Well ... its a really great site !

Also donated but didn't ask to be on the wall. I wouldn't assume the wall has many of the donor names on it. Would be nice to know the budget and shortfall of donations, if any, but that's additional work to ask of those who run the site. If it's working okay as is I'm glad to contribute once in a while to keep it going and trust that johnh will make a change if if one is really needed.
