The company that provides this fan forum page has sent me and I’m assuming Yote53 a note indicating that due to the pandemic their revenues have dropped by a fairly large sum. The appeal was very forthright and honest in my opinion and basically said they are asking for a one time contribution, or a pledge paid monthly to help offset ad revenue shortfall. They are going to continue to operate, there’s no threat of that happening. They also have 9 full time employees. I found that interesting as well.
Once I figure out how to post the letter with the request I will do so. Until then please give them some consideration in supporting their shortfall. There are benefits tied to it. An example is with a $50 pledge you’ll go one year ad free on the site. There are other benefits as well I just don’t have them in front of me.
This has been a great place for us as fans to have sports banter the past few years. My gut feeling is this appeal is genuine and sincere. I’d like to set a goal of $1000 for this page amongst us that use it. 20 people at $50 get this done. That’s less than $5 / month for good entertainment.
I’ll start it with $50’pledge.
Please post your thoughts. Thanks
YFE

Here is the link to the page for contributions. Your user name will autofill and you can select to make your contribution in the name of this board (don't forget that step!) This is the second or third Coyote Sports message board that we've had (the previous one also being on ProBoards and it blew up the week of the TCF Bank Heist, really bad timing). It's taken a while to build it to where it is today and it would be a shame to start over again. www.proboards.com/contribute

I made a contribution. Thought it was a one time. When I continued on it was monthly but it let me cancel that so be sure and continue on a click or two.

Yeah there's a button towards the bottom where you can toggle between monthly or one time. Be aware of what you are clicking.
