PayPal Closed our Account, Again...

Maybe you should try with PayMaya for now.

Yes, I am using my personal PayMaya account to accept donations. so its good to go but unfortunately it only works in Philippines. also i tried applying for their paymaya enterprise as usual i got declined. lol

This re-write of the about section on Patreon is also awesome. Really dials in that OS is a content creator "making stuff". :D

I was just going to ask if paymaya worked internationally (US, UK, so on). And now I see it does not. :(

If anyone is wanting to pitch in but is unwilling or unable to pay monthly, you can(somewhat awkwardly) make singular donations through Patreon by simply joining for the desired amount and cancelling your membership once you've been charged for the month.

Sorry this is going on. Of course I hope the problem gets sorted out, but more than that I hope you don't put yourselves through any great hardship for it. It's been wonderful to have somewhere to catch up on classics that just aren't available anywhere for whatever reason, but it's not worth it if it's at the expense of another's well-being.

I LOVE OS! Thanks for all of your hard work! I am going to start supporting on Patreon!

PS we need to be have like a meme posting community...I love following some anime meme groups on Facebook and I think it would be fun if we had like a meme newsfeed for people to share. Just an idea!

Patreon is good, I'm a patron now. https://ko-fi.com/ is kinda like Patreon if you want to look into that. It's good you got bitcoin in there though cause cryptocurrency is the next radio,tv,internet,yahoo,google,amazon. it's going to get big.

Why PayPal, WHY?! T_T

Hi everyone! I hope you are all safe, healthy and well. It has been more than 5 months (here in Phil., at least) that most of us are being directed to stay at home for our own sake. True enough, these months had tested almost all aspects of our lives.

It is with sadness that I am writing this post today. PayPal has blocked our account once again. Jim had tried to apply for business account but had been denied. Hence, we are still working on ways we could keep our beloved site afloat. Here are few of the workarounds Jim had set in place:

https://otaku-streamers.com/communit....php?do=donate

Now, Jim and I had discussed this over and over again. We are NOT inclined in closing or selling our site. While we are encountering tremendous challenges in terms of working on the new version and hitting our donation goals, we have not thought of closing the site for good.

With this in mind, we would like to request for your continuous help and support as we strive to keep our site and community alive. For any questions or comments, please write them below or feel free to send us a message.

Stay safe, everyone!! Thank you and as always�

ALL HAIL OS!

i think sticking with patreon is such a smart move on jim's behalf rather than staying with paypal.. great job jim!

If Pi was a cryptocurrency that would've been nice

The site fell short of goal last month I'm sure because of the switch in how to donate. Are things looking a little better now that people have had the chance to adjust?
