John D...

As the owner of this domain and the benefactor and provider of the Lugerforum.com as an information and history sanctuary to what is now thousands of Luger enthusiasts and collectors world-wide... I think it entirely appropriate that the same Title appear below your name when you post! Or maybe "Lugerforum Patron Emeritus" would be more appropriate!

Thanks for everything you do for the Luger community John D.

Hi John and all,

John - honestly? I couldn't - and wouldn't - do it without you and folks just like you.. To all the Moderators, Patrons and users alike - I tip my hat to you. Please know how much I appreciate the support, kind words and encouragement. This Forum, along with the P 38 & PP-PPK Forums are kind of special.....

Frankly, again over the past few days, I've noticed that this site went down for a few hours - and that's not acceptable. So, over the course of the next few weeks, I may be making some changes to this server..

Anyway - just know how appreciated all the support is - to the folks in the list above and all the Moderators - thanks!!

And to John S. ........



My Best to all..!

John

John,
Please check your PayPal receipt records for the first week of April, as mine indicate that I made a contribution through PayPal in that time frame.
Thx, Lyn

There is no minimum (I can speak out of turn, cuz I never get a thank you) okay, John thanks me EVERY time I talk to him


The way I figure a "donation" is, how often do you visit?

How often have you read something here and saved a $100

How often have you read something and said, dang, I didn't know that? (me all the time... and get corrected 1/3 of the time by Frank, Dwight, Ron, etc, and that is okay )


I just know that John pays for all of the computer servers, time and bandwidth from his own pocket

It is worth every penny. But Ed what about all the money the board has cost me with this "Luger Fever". I tried 12 step but only make it through two, 1- see it 2- Buy it.

In all fairness this board has save me a lot of money and gave more information than some college courses.
