If anyone wishes to donate anything for Aurora, it turns out you can send donations via paypal to my email address, which is stevewalmsley at btinternet.com (change at to @). Until this week I hadn't realised it was that easy :)

Of course, if anyone wishes to donate to the operating expenses of the forum, I take donations at eluken@pentarch.org :)

I had been thinking for some time now that it would be great if there was a way that I could contribute.  I feel kind of bad playing a 100% free game. 

There are plenty of "free" sites out there that get paid for somehow: through ads, or in-game item or gear purchases.  I ran a free MMO out of my house for several years that was free with a voluntary donation option and without soliciting I collected more then enough to cover my expenses.  Even with free open source projects I am able to contribute in the form of content in various ways.  I know we are able to come up with ideas and write about them but that's not quite the same.

Hello,

I am pretty new to this game. . .  3 full real days in. . .  but i totally love it.

Hearby I just wanted to say. . .  Thank You Steve for this great game, I hope you give us some more years of patches and content. . .  heck I even would buy Aurora if it would be a commercial game
