An introduction to flattr 1 hour and 11 mins ago
Being a private torrent site, we don't technically do anything illegal. However, not everyone agrees with this sentiment - especially, for some reason, payment transaction sites when the IFPI gets involved.

Since August, our donations have been down for much longer than they've been up, due mainly to payment providers caving to the demands of the IFPI. As you might imagine, it's been a nervewracking time for us, and we've only been surviving by delving deeper and deeper into our savings.

However, those savings have effectively dried up. Expecting this, we launched a new, solid payment processing system recently - flattr. Unfortunately, flattr is an unfamiliar system to most users, and it can be a bit confusing. As a result, we were not able to make our monthly donation goal in the month that we had flattr running. Thus, we have detailed how to donate via flattr in the following wiki article: How to donate via Flattr

Additionally, if you feel like donating a lump sum instead of a cloudy small sum like flattr encourages, you can do so by clicking here: https://flattr.com/donation/give/to/wcd Please note, however, that donations made with that link are entirely anonymous (unlike the ones from donate.php), and even though we would greatly appreciate any amount you put in there, we cannot reward you for them with invites or donor status. Also, the page just white-screens unless you're already logged in with a flattr account.

An Important Note: for regular donations (ie, not the lump sums linked above) flattr prorates the donations in the first month for new accounts. That means that, for example, if you signed up on the 15th of the month, added 6 EUR into your flattr "Means," and set the monthly flattr amount to 6 EUR, then your click would be worth only 3 EUR, or half a month's worth. The next month you will have to click on our flattr button again in order to make sure that the rest of the amount makes it to its correct destination. If you don't click on something in that second month, the balance will go to charity of flattr's choosing. So if you donated last month with a new flattr account, please click us again now.

In the three years of running this site, this is the first time we've had to make a front page announcement of this type. We've worked our hardest to support you over the past three years, and now, the time has come where we need you to support us. So if you have a little bit of extra money this month, we would be extremely grateful if you took the time to figure out how flattr works and help us out.

Thanks
