    I was signing up to be a GCGF site supporter. I selected the 3 year option.
    Then I was directed to Paypal.
    I will not use Paypal, period.
    They are leading the charge, boycotting North Carolina because the common sense citizens of North Carolina don't think its a good idea to have men sharing a bathroom/shower with your daughters. PayPal is just like Target.
    Sorry, GCGF management! Drop PayPal and I will sign up.

    Thanks, I didn't know that, but I would like to see the paypal option removed. I will sign up.
    You can delete this thread. I don't want to start a riot.
    Appreciate your help!

    Keep Pay pal, I use it on tons of sites, there are issues with almost every company I cannot boycott them all

    Same here... while I hate to support a company that has policies I disagree with, I too cannot write them all off. I just used PayPal to become a site supporter.

    SAWMAN, I can always count on you to rush in to help with a gallon of gasoline.
    You need to be watching the Trump riot in California.

    I don't like PayPal either. Their policies, who they support or the way they do business. I do have an account but haven't used it in a few years. It was great for wheeling and dealing RC airplane stuff or turning model airplanes into gun parts and ammo. I just minimize the useage. I think Mark Sucker berg should be gang raped by Muslims but I have to use Facebook for various reasons too. Best to go with your principles. I still believe in capitalism and that means "you own the company, you can set your own rules and do what you want. It's your business." I can't speak for the forum owner but I don't think he has an option to not use PayPal with that particular feature.

    I understand. Unfortunately I have an iPhone, iMac laptops, I've have shop with stores that don't reflect my values. But, they are my values and I try to stick to them as best I can.
    I know the forum has to do what they have to do. I'll try again to pay for the site supporter deal without the paypal.

    ME ---> I don't do Pay Pal either,however this site has the option to pay with credit card and I did just that.

    This is why my name is greener that the others. --- SAWMAN

    I used the option to pay with a credit card. My motivation was that I was circumventing Paypal and not giving them any of my business. I refused to sign up with Paypal as they requested and proceeded to check out.
    Almost as soon as I completed the credit card transaction I got an email from Paypal thanking me for my business.
    Ok, so Im not as computer literate as I thought I was. I'm proud to support this forum, but am grossly aggravated by Paypal.
    I feel completely duped.
    If only I had consulted my financial advisor, SAWMAN. My name would be as green as his.

    You know Jerry .......... me and Sean are considering you for a spot on the GCGF board of directors.

    All you will need to furnish is your PayPal account number and a 50rd box of 22 ammo. Our next meeting will be this coming Saturday at a "secret" location. --- SAWMAN

    SAWMAN, Please don't vote until I can provide proof of citizenship. I don't want anything to derail my spot on the board.
    I think you already have all the other documentation you could possibly need except the letters of recommendation from Hog Valley.
    Daylight stalking with 2 on the ground in less than 1 hour. Impressive if I say so myself! The hard part was finding the key to pig pen gate.
    SEAN, I don't know if I'll be able to make that meeting. I have to watch the bathroom remodel paint dry at home. Never know when paint will decide to run. But, next time for sure!
