Y’all never cease to surprise and amaze me.

I know that if it wasn’t for Christina, none of us would be here in the first place. I know that your donation is obviously meant to keep this Christina website going. It’s a testament to the many moments shared together since the original liveDaily and everything in between, that you lovely people still care about the community as much as you care about Christina. You can technically get Christina news anywhere you’d like. But at last count, 1065 of you have registered here to do so (give or take a Spam 🤖).

I think this is the best forum yet (and hopefully last), however many may yearn for the previous boards and times. Yeah, there were more people before, but as a site, it was always about the collective artists and then a forum for Christina. xRED was the first one to make it about her, but it had its flaws. This is the best incarnation of this idea, and not just because it’s the first one that actually feels my own, and where I didn’t feel boxed in by certain precedents I just felt I had to carry over. It’s also the first one where I get to give Christina her place. She gets top billing in the forum and her own exclusive place only for her! Everything else, somewhere else.

This is I think the 4th time (maybe 5th? I can’t remember anymore) we’ve had to do this. I don’t know if I scared y’all the last time when I closed xRED and said part of the reason was the uncertainty of the last begathon, but still, y’all came through with marvelous speed. You’ve trusted me yet again to keep us going. You’ve trusted me with your money, which is HUGE considering the history of bad behavior on that front from previous incidents. I know it’s about Christina, but I can’t help but feel that not anyone could have kept us together, or asked something like this from you, and have you lot willingly join in.

Thank you for the trust, fam. Here’s to a better new year.

Thanks to your contributions, we now have the server paid for the next 2 years.

I love you King Jorge! ❤️ And I love this place. This is where us old cunts will retire and remain crusty for the rest of our lives. It’s a fair investment. 😘

Well, I did say cheap, not poor. I would never make jokes of someone’s poverty.

Now his cheapness? It’s fair game.

This board is part of my daily routine. I check it before I check my work emails (you never know with Christina). Any opportunity to show appreciation and to keep this damn cesspool alive.

Let's be honest, Christina may be the reason we all came here in the first place, but it was you Jorge the one who became like glue for all of us. You've kept us together thanks to your efforts.

I feel happy that we still have our little community going.

I'm trying to make a donation but it goes back to the main page with a "thank you"...? I guess because it's completed now?
Sorry I'm late, yesterday was my first day at a new job. I've been busy :'( I would have donated

I wouldn’t even pay for Facebook.

I like this place and hope it raises enough money to survive another year but if it doesn’t, I’ll be fine either way.
