I was thinking of the times I was glad to keep my private business separate from NRO. Remember the guy that had no genitals? He was compulsively talking about his crotch area all day, and when I told him that it was against the rules, he called out an assassination hit on me on another forum. Great guy otherwise.

In FB terms... thumbs up.

No, no. I really appreciate your insights re the wild west.
In the early and late 2000s we ruled on top search engine rankings. For a few good years there we were number one and two for "nudist resorts." It's not so easy anymore, especially without any social media presence.
As long as everyone's well behaved, I'd be interested to see how large a group we can nurture. Maybe we'll even think of some useful things to get done.
Enjoy the sunshine!

While we're waiting for the last donations to arrive...
Thank Posts - We will encourage community support with the Thank Posts feature by allowing our users to thank each other for useful contributions. A user's thanks are collected in a points based system which will allow them to achieve certain ranks once a target amount is met.
Unanswered Topics - If you sometimes lose track of all the forum topics that have never received a single reply then this feature makes it easy. It keeps tabs on all of your unanswered threads by adding a new page to view them.

Does anyone here have any experience with GoFundMe style fundraising?
I'm considering doing that to raise enough to free my calendar for a month to get this accomplished without delay. Otherwise I'm limited to a few minutes a day of developing it after working my usual jobs.

Very little.
I noticed that even for worthy, charitable causes, they take (it seems to me) an excessive commission; but perhaps a decent bunch of it is devoted to spreading the word to other potential donors?
If GFM spreads your word to other potential donors, might there be an undesirable backlash?

Potential donors (as seen by GFM) objecting to fundraising for promoting nudity/naturism, aka 'pornography'; possibly reporting the site to potentially unfriendly legal authorities, trying to shut down a 'porn' site; etc, unknown.
Sorry (I'm Canadian) to be negative, but such things seem to happen in some countries, even if the activity is legal and upright. Just trying to ensure all eventualities and risks are considered.
Perhaps others have a better experience than I anticipate? I hope so.

I had hoped that someone might have a little more experience with GFM than I have, because mine is very limited, so I’ve waited. Now that no one else seems to have any input, I’ll tell my story.
I tried it once last year hoping to raise some money to help with the cost to replace the roof of a storm-damaged covered Bridge in Indiana. I expected that the GFM system would somehow draw some attention to my cause, but that’s not really how it works. They don’t seem to do anything except provide the mechanism for folks to make electronic payments, from which they take a small percentage. There doesn’t seem to be any significant advantage over PayPal.

Those are some valid considerations Mark, and I see your point. All they could shut down would be the GFM account though. It couldn't affect NRO.
Thanks Bill. You're making a valid argument. You see some successful GFM campaigns but you don't see how hard they have had to promote it everywhere across social media etc.

No pun intended but exposure is what’s really needed. Lots of people have to be made aware of your appeal, and a few will contribute.

The last of the PayPal donations have arrived.
You guys and ladies are great!
I'll keep you posted on progress, which may be somewhat slow as my free time is still limited.
A heartfelt thanks to "the faithful."

We just posted this to our business page on Facebook. In the first few minutes it’s gotten lots of likes and shares!
Many of you ask for quality nudist sites...there is one out there that has been quietly promoting social nudity that is trying to revamp the site to attract a wider audience. Since my involvement in the group starting in 2011, it has been the highest quality site out there. They are now trying to upgrade the site and that takes $$. If you want a quality site to exchange ideas and questions about social nudity, please subscribe to the site and consider a small donation to help with the cost of site upgrades. Please like and share to spread the word! https://gf.me/u/xq5jq7
Enjoy the sunshine!
