I certainly agree with that.

But the point is to ask. We don't ask so therefore we don't get. If it were
more urgent, or if we had a project that needed additional funding, I think we
would be more actively asking.

So $6 pays for grex operating expenses for 8 hours? Would this be too much
to ask as a one-time donation from even student users, in exchange for wishing
their puppy a happy first birthday or the like in the motd? It might be more
appealing than a month's membership for people not interested in voting. And
would not generate reminders to renew their membership.

But encouraging one-time donations as well as memberships might also be a good
tactic...
Are plans underway to issue such a reminder? Or is this merely a theoretical
idea?
