I think it would stimulate both members giving donations to developers, as developers releasing hacks here, if it would be visible in each modification thread (1st post & member postbit) who donated to the developer.

What do you think about this idea?

If I make a donation to a member or a staff member here I would like to remain anonymous. I would be more stimulated if the numbers at the foot were displaying 3.8.1 rather than my name appearing in the developers thread whom I donated in.

I run a site that exists solely on donations. We had talked about putting some sort of 'mark' next to the donator's names and many of the donators said they wished to remain anonymous. I know on sites that I donate to that have the option to identify me or not, I always choose not to be identified.

The donations here are just a direct link to paypal, no information about donations is stored in our databases so there is nothing we could display, even if we wanted to.

I would like to request a donation system to be added, where members can decide whether or not to donate anonymously.

i would be seriously against this suggestion. this is not a private site where you display your clients list... this is not either a portfolio or a donation fund...

We already have a system that allows members to donate to coders (if they so wish) we do not plan to add anything further.

I am like 70% against and like 20% for.10% undecided.Something between would be a field like Donations: XXX (number) ,so just showing amount instead of names,but it's not ideal either.I suggest dropping this idea.

Same here. I have it so I see a 'vip' tag on their postbit at my site but no-one else knows.

count the number of on/off we already have in the settings/options here, and you'll see we have enough...
