Last year I arranged it with a kind Doper that I mailed a money order to him and he used his credit card to pay my subscription. Would anyone be willing to extend this kindness to me this year? Honey ---

Only thing is though, I’d need to receive your money up front seeing as how I’m terminally broke. 😛 Just let me know. My email is in my profile if that’ll work for you. ---

I have no credit card, but if an NZ doper can click me on, I have no problem mailing them some cash. Outside of NZ my money isn’t worth bananas, but it’s awful pretty to look at. My email is yaxxon at [hotmail.com](http://hotmail.com). ---

I’m embarassed to ask, but I was wondering if someone could help me with the subscription costs. I am currently unemployed and have no credit card. When I am in better financial circumstances, I will pass on the favor to others. My email in my profile is correct. Thanks. ---

[**C\_M** , you have mail] To the rest of you, awesome people: may I ask a stupid question? Did someone by accident pay for me? I just ordered [for one year] and saw that I’m now paid for till 2007. :eek: That is sooo sweet. Who[m]ever you are. Thank you! . Could you mail me, you philanthropist you? 🙂 love, gum. ---

My subscription is almost up. Not having any means of paying online as I don’t own any credit cards and don’t have paypal or anything like that, I was hoping that maybe somebody could cover it for me and if they were to give me some sort of mailing address or P.O box, I’d surely send you the money by mail. It’s really the only way I’d be able to do it. ---

Apparently my subscription is up on April 28. (Incidentally, if you renew sooner, do you get the full year from 4/28, or only a year from the renewal date? The former seems more fair.) I don’t have a credit card with which to renew, and even if I did I have no money. Would anyone be so kind as to help me out? ---

> [@Dead Cat](#): > > Hello beautiful people - I’m back! > > But only temporarily, unless some lovely person could please pay my subscription fee. Although I’m a student, I can’t really claim I can’t afford it (especially as I won £30 playing poker last night :D), but I have no credit card or Paypal account. I’m willing to send a cheque to my sponsor, but it would be in UK£, so if they’re from the UK that would be easiest, I guess. Thanks! Pls check your mail. ---

I need to renew, but I don’t have a CC that they take (AMEX), and I don’t want to mess with setting up Paypal. This isn’t a charity request, either; I’ll send the payer a check or MO for the amount. Can someone help me out? ---

Just finished [Ed’s](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=309616) re-subscription FAQ, and I’m moved to sponsor another doper. My email is in my profile. I may not be able to fulfill all requests. If you have less posts than I do, it wouldn’t hurt if you provided at least two links to posts that demonstrate your contribution to the community. Just reviewing the bottom half of page 6, there are folks that I would be willing to sponsor over and above generousity, like **Tuckerfan** , **Marley23** , **Idle Thoughts** , and one who needs no mention. ---

I can pay my own way, but want to preserve my confidentiality. I therefore would like to send a money order to someone who would then cash it and pay the SDMB directly for me. I may have to use a pseudonym on the M.O.–rather than my actual name–but it will definitely clear, no problems whatsoever. BTW, this has nothing to do with any legal or ethical issues, whatsoever.
