Two things ... first of all my forum is currently 14th on the list but we are about to make a big jump up. CornhuskerWay we are coming for you Secondly, Proboards please find a way to take Paypal if you can in the future. Seemingly everyone on my forum uses Paypal - it is the standard currency for most of the transactions and donations that occur on the forum, with the exception of a few old timers who still write checks. Anyway, after your PM went out there is a lot of interest in helping and I keep getting asked if you take Paypal. With the answer being no they are sending contributions to me instead. I have to now consolidate, send the contribution on my credit card, transfer the PayPal money to my bank from which I pay off my credit card. It's clunky.

It's been said several times in this thread already but it isn't a matter of PB being willing to take Paypal or not — Paypal has decided not to work with ProBoards, not the other way around, and thus that avenue is closed off indefinitely. It definitely sucks, but if a vendor won't work with a client, there isn't anything the client can do.

I am attention-span-challenged and didn't quite make it through all eleven pages ... I'm lucky if I make it through re-reading my own post for typo's

Reading this makes my heart drop. Like it was said "shame on Paypal." It's the only payment I use on the Net. I had no idea you were a small group of people who create and run Proboards so efficiently. Thank you for all you do for all of us. I will keep my eye on this thread, I want to contribute, you deserve it.

Hello, Since PayPal is not a payment option, where can I find specific information about your organization. I don't want to submit personal information to an entity I know nothing about. Thank you.

Where are you physically located, how do you handle payments. I did find the physical address.

For clarity, I am not a ProBoards employee — I'm working with them, but at not part of their staff roster. As you've discovered, PB is located in Foothill Ranch, CA. As per their privacy statement, all payments are processed by third-party vendors like Stripe.
