Does this mean that you will be soliciting donations again? Maybe with lower thresholds to become a donator/VIP and/or introducing a lower ranked special rank?

The vast majority of total forum revenue was from ads, not donations

I don't think the forum is hurting for revenue.

Well if the forum is spending more then it is bringing in then it might be in need of additional money to complete the new software.

It is too bad if theymos will not lower the donation requirements. I am not sure I would fork over 10BTC to get a donator tag, I probably would give half that though.

I think that if the donator amount was lowered to that sort of level then it could become attractive to high budget scammers going for a legitimacy play, despite any disclaimers that would be made. A browse thru the Foundation members list turns up some interesting names, as in "whatever happened to them".
I don't have the same depth of interest in where's the muneez as the OP, but if I were to consider donating, I think I'd like to know exactly to what entity I would be giving it which doesn't seem very clear at the moment.
It certainly seems to be an eye watering amount of money to spend on a forum but most of us here accept Theymos' autocracy as a fact.
I think I'd be a little pissed tho if I donated and then read a thread about the new BTC200 virtual water cooler that he's bought for the virtual office.
