Hello Patrons! An important "thank you" to all of you today, because today is the day that the yearly bills have to be paid for MoeGamer, and you've all made doing that a whole lot easier. So thank you for that; you've helped keep the lights on for another year.
I'm going to have to think about expanding or rejigging the way I do things at some point, because on my current plan I'm starting to run out of storage space — I'm currently at 78% of capacity. The next plan up on WordPress is twice the price per year but offers more than ten times the storage space plus a bunch of additional features, so that would be nice. It's a bit out of my price range at present, however — even with your generous assistance! Maybe give your game-loving friends a nudge to help me out, eh? 🙂 (Joking. Mostly. Although I certainly wouldn't complain.)
The alternative, of course, is to migrate MoeGamer from WordPress.com to a self-hosted WordPress.org installation. This is probably the most cost-effective approach in the long run, but it's a bit more of a challenge to stay on top of maintenance and updates if you do that. I've had a few dodgy experiences with self-hosted WordPress in the past — particularly with spammers compromising the site — so I'm a little hesitant to do that, especially as WordPress.com's general level of support and reliability is so good. And especially because migrating everything that is on MoeGamer.net today — posts, pages, media — will be a big ol' pain, too!
Anyway, that's all stuff for Future Pete — a much later Future Pete than the one that has been in the most recent Atari A to Z videos — to worry about. For now, I want to say once again, a big and hearty thank you for believing in what I do enough to want to support it. You're the best!
