List of MNers who would anonymously donate to MN

[Mner2000]

I didn’t get chance to post on the subscription thread but share a lot of concerns raised both there and on the related FWR thread re a subscription. Please post here if you would rather make an anonymous donation to MN than subscribe. You don’t need to put your reason.

I’d rather go to another forum than donate to a very profitable business where all the content is generated by the users! I’d rather give £2 a month to cancer research.

A two-tier system is “not in the spirit” imo

Agree

I would donate. I will not subscribe.

I'd donate in a heartbeat.

Am still considering subscription though I think too expensive. I would subscribe at £2.99 per month.

I would donate a) if it were anonymous and b) necessary to keep mumsnet online after all other expenditure had been cut to a minimum.

I'm not donating to allow people to keep their high salaries, bonuses, etc.

I'd do a one off donation through a reputable third party.

would donate a) if it were anonymous and b) necessary to keep mumsnet online after all other expenditure had been cut to a minimum. after this though.

Me. Happy to give money, but I don't want any of my details held by MN.

The subscription is too expensive. I would pay a lower fee of £15 a year, maybe £1.99 a month for ad free use with maybe exclusive competitions or early access to the testing surveys. I honestly don't think a two tier system where some can edit posts is the way forward. Mumsnet has been partly built on the free content provided by the people posting on the forums. I accept there are costs involved with maintaining the site but the current fee structure feels too high for me.

I would donate, but not subscribe.

I'm happy to donate if needed, but don't want to have my irl details linked to my mn account

Yes, I would donate anonymously, but as my previous details were grabbed in the Jeffrey thingy, and after the crappy Emma-the-intern affair, there’s no way I’m trusting this site with my name and home address.

Thanks to everyone who has responded so far. For info, MoleSmokes has also started a thread asking MNHQ for further clarification on data protection and security.

I’m happy to donate, but don’t want my bank details linked to my MN account in view of previous data breaches. I don’t want a 2 tier system, don’t care about fewer ads or edit function.

Ditto what Mum4MrA said!

Recently I've been happy to donate to two places/groups that have admitted they're struggling because it would upset me (and the DC) to see them go under.

But MN? I just don't feel comfortable paying for annual subs. Sorry but if MN eventually goes entirely behind a paywall then so be it. I don't use the site enough these days to warrant that sort of money. And besides, we're going to be struggling financially if this goes on much longer.

Yep, me

Not very anonymous is it?

That made me do an actual laugh, sorry

erm..............yeah, point well made lol

I would prefer to donate.

I would don

I would donate but wont subscribe.

Not in a million years! Charities are worth donating to, a large company with wealthy owners/shareholders is not, particularly when those being asked to pay are the ones creating much of the content.
