BHW Donations

I know the forum could always use donations to help defray its server costs but I do not understand why you have to be a logged in member in order to use the donate button.

There's usually more nonmembers than members online on this forum at any given time and I am sure that there are some nonmember lurkers who have benefited from info they received on this forum and would be willing to make a donation. So why not make the donate button accessible to all?

I personally don't think it's very likely that someone not willing to sign up on the forum would be willing to donate to the forum...

Some people just lurk because they do not want to take a chance of their name or handle being associated with anything black hat but, nonetheless, they are still profiting from it. Like the congressman or televangelist getting caught in a sex scandal.....the "righteous ones" still do it but are not willing to admit that they do.

Anyway, I see nothing to lose and possibly something to gain by opening the donate button up to all. Just a thought.
