I'd like to donate some funds to the effort.

I clicked on donate and it took me to the gameservers website....

Question>>>>>

Who exactly does this funding go to?

What is it used for?

Who controls the spending?

Just want to ensure it's going to us ( I would hope to be used for hardware maintenance/server upgrades, etc))

When you Donate to our server, it donates to the Paypal account that is tied directly to the Gameservers account which purchased the servers. In this case, Captain Parker has ownership to the account, but the command staff has access to see the funds, and where they are distributed.

Money donated to the servers travels directly into the servers themselves, so to speak. We are charged monthly for the servers to stay online, this includes the Public server, the Private server, the Ventrilo server, and the Website hosting. All of these are automatically charged to the PayPal account when the billing period is due. When you ask, "Who controls the spending?" I assume you would mean who has ownership of the account, which is Captain Parker. However, spending other then server maintenance is somewhat rare, although some server modifications that we've examined would cost extra to be implemented. I'll move this topic to the Mess Hall, as I would think a Civilian Announcement about it is a bit much.

I believe this should be 'than' instead of 'then.'

I believe you are wrong there, since "than" is a conjunction which is used only in comparisons. I do believe I used "then" in an addition sense, thus correctly.

Actually, "than" is not used only in comparisons. It is also used as a conjunction, and also as a preposition. In the case where the word 'other' is placed in front, it is always a 'than.'

I'm afraid you'll need a citation there. Since the Oxford English Dictionary actually labels it as just a conjunction.
