i'm already a charter member, does that trump the "Lifetime Universal Deluxe."?

A search for something to control runaway CPU usage brought me to DC and Process Tamer in March 2005 as member #58. Where else can you have a program written just for you? Thanks, DC.

Charter member trumps all.. while still granting you no special abilities.. In other words, you are now in the only-semi-logical land of DC

Can't I be "DC Poet Laureate?"

Look, this is a family site and remarks like that make it pretty clear that you're in your cups!

Fred Nerd · « **Reply #41 on:** March 02, 2011, 11:08 AM »

This group of people is so totally awesome.
I just donated a reasonable (I think) amount [@Mouser it came through in my real name, as Joshua Schuessler] because I felt I owed it to the site.
Things DC has given me over time:
Lots of nice programs
Programs made up on the spot (I once had a coding snack made for me)
Someone to ask about any technical issue and its always been answered helpfully and no-one make you feel like an idiot for asking.
People who have helped me find things/programs when I gave them up as too hard.
A reason to stay interested in programming
An easy route to get into programmin thanks to Programming school.
Programming school: a better teaching method than those that cost a fortune. I still always find it amazing that Mouser takes the time to mark my attempts at coding. If it wasn't for DC I wouldn't know any code, and its now a hobby I enjoy.

And I'll never forget how good I felt when Mouser gave me a 'supporting member' status and lifetime license when I was too young to have enough money to donate, and didn't have a credit card to do it with anyway.

Not to mention links to all sorts of really cool tech jokes and cartoons.

Big Cheers to everyone here. You're all legends. ['legend' is used in the Australian way. Means you're all awesome. But sounds better]

Fred

Nick (nudone): We all owe you so much for creating Cody the DC mascot -- I cannot even begin to fathom this site without him. I love the little fellow and I know i'm not the only one by a long shot. Thank you.

Let's keep this thread going with new faces! -- I want to see how many different members we can get posting to this celebration topic.

Hi,
Keep up the good work - it's wonderful to come across sites where a spirit of truly sharing - not profit-thinking - prevails. Hope you reach your goal soon!

I wanted to support this great website and donated a small amount.
Hope that many people do the same to help you stay online

It's nice to see post at other sites supporting this fund raiser. It makes me feel warm inside

Here is my other site's post: http://nrrd.de/content/half-way-there

The image this time is from donationcoder, but it is still cute (are there any pictures of Cody that are not cute?): http://www.donationcoder.com/cssimages/cody_coinwing_48xT2.gif
