If you want to help cover the monthly server hosting fee of the Baldur's Gate 3 Wiki, you can donate here.
Important information before you donate!
First of all:
- Payments go through the Ko-Fi account of Taylan, the wiki's founder and systems administrator.
- Taylan is hosting the wiki on a server from Hetzner Online GmbH, costing 55 EUR per month.
- On Taylan's Ko-Fi page, you will see a donation goal every year to cover that year's costs.
- Please don't send any more money after the yearly goal is reached.
Furthermore:
- Taylan may use the server for unrelated private projects.
- This generally demands less than 5% of the server's available resources.
- To justify this, Taylan will cover 5 EUR (about 9%) of the monthly hosting fee.
This leaves 50 EUR per month (600 per year) to be covered by the Ko-Fi donations.
Lack of anonymity of donors
Please be aware that Ko-fi donations are not anonymous:
- Your PayPal name (which is usually your legal name) or credit card holder name (likewise) is revealed to the recipient, i.e., to Taylan.
- If you announce on social media, Discord, etc. that you've donated, Taylan can deduce your name, by matching the time of your announcement to the donation.
- If this concerns you, you can keep silent about your donation (your name will be seen, but it won't be obvious whose it is), donate through another person, or don't donate.
OK, I want to donate
Please don't donate if the yearly goal shown on the Ko-Fi page has already been reached:
