Site supporters and patrons

I have been a member here for a few months and enjoy drawing from the wisdom of others which is freely given.

The party in the park allowed my family and I to meet several members and administrative members where I gladly paid to be a patron...... Not much coin per year for all that is offered here and being a site supporter is a lot less coin.

I am sure several have supported the site but have let their membership expire. Again, not much money to renew for all we receive.

This site is for all of us.. Protecting our right to protect ourselves, our loved ones and others by legally owning and carrying a firearm.

I was a moderator of a big R/C site for years and it is a tough job let alone the ones who keep the site moving via programming and $$ for the bandwidth and servers.

After reading the forums I see several with hundreds of posts, also a many with a thousand or more posts that are not currently site supporters.

I ask you to search your heart and if you have an extra $5 a month or less become a supporter or patron as many have. It is helping to protect our rights as Americans!

I have unknowingly allowed my membership to expire. Supposedly there is an e-mail sent out ahead of renewal time, but in my experience it doesn't always work. Hence myself and many others flat forget. Meant to re-up at the PitP but it done slipped my mind.

I put a reminder in my calendar every year. There are very few organizations I'm willing to support with either my time or my money, but this is definitely one of them.

I think I received an email to renew and I did renew.
All ohio ccw members who carry should support ofcc by becoming a paid member so the legal fight to carry can continue before killary and anti gunners take away our right to carry like they already have in nyc, nj, etc.

The anti gunners have billionaire Bloomberg on their side so we need to support with money. I'm also life time nra member.

I did a renewal some months ago, and my Site SUpporter does not show up. I didn't think it as a big deal, though.

Maybe someone can look into it for me.

PM me your name & email address and I'll look into it. Email address has to match the email address you used to sign up for the forum, BTW.

Mine lapsed last year or so. Finally got the scratch to renew and upped to Patron when I did. Got the membership card but never did see the challenge coin mentioned on the membership page. Not a deal breaker but It would look good with my Appleseed challenge coin. :wink:

Please don't think that I am complaining. I am not a collector of things so was not too off put by it.

Hey Folks,

A batch of coins went out at the beginning of the week. If you don't get yours by Friday, please send me a personal message and I will cross reference my records to see if I can find your order. Please include your name and mailing address with your p.m.

Thanks!

Whoohoo! Thanks for looking into it.

As mentioned it is not a dealbreaker, had planned on going Patron because the cause is good and I had the funds. Didn't even know there was a coin involved till I was reading the small print on the join page. :wink: Honestly figured it was leftover text from a previous campaign and figured if I got one great, if not no biggie.

Like I said, the cause is good. Other than a serious lack of funds, there isn't much reason to not support the mission.
