Automatic donations to fumbbl?
Is there a way to set this up?
I donate to the devs of Dwarf Fortress through Patreon and that works great. Would love to do something similar here but am not sure how.

Anyone have any experience with this? Can this be set up through paypal?

I believe they have to be set up by the seller (receiver) of the money. And I think the person needs to have a business or premier account (whatever these may be).

https://www.paypal.com/pdn-recurring

I send regular money to several podcasts and other things (netflix etc) thorugh paypal but can't see any information on the details page for these transaction about setting up new ones. Sorry 'chilla

Really FUMBBL needs to set up some kinda non-profit thing with a notional board, so things like Patreon can be set up just for FUMBBL and spending etc can be tracked, but the guys running the site are likely busy enough as it is.

For sure. I can understand that they're busy but I bet it'd be beneficial for them and make it convenient for people who want to continuously donate as well.

Oh well! Thanks for the info guys! Woop woop!

in case admins/christer miss your blog, maybe just post it (maybe with the suggestions below) in the ideas&bug reports part of the forum - christer and admins will be able to decide if a setup of this is worth time and effort (soon or maybe as a future project), but it surely cant do any bad if they know there is an interest for this in the community

Christer generally sends out a distress call when funds are REALLY needed & we all usually rally quickly to it. While its certainly not a bad idea at all I'd wonder if the time it takes, if its even allot (I dunno), is worth it considering Christer doesn't ever seem to want to push for donations unless REALLY needed & there are soooo many other, more important things on his plate for the site. Definitely something worth asking about in any case as it can only help fumbbl.

Getting away from PP might be a good idea.
