Donating to the Scratch Team Via PayPal? (15.5 out of 16 Support!)

TheFriendliestDerp

I went to scratch's donation page. In the interest of donating a few bucks I got from old RPGMaker Games. Upon loading the site- I saw that you needed to pay with a credit card! Paypal would be a nice way to donate.

Also, sorry if this doesn't belong here. I was unsure.

Quite frankly, there is no reason NOT to support this. Because it's an easier way to help the Scratch Team.

That statement is incorrect.
What if a parent saw any of the donation pages and mistook it for something else, or a child got into it and accidentally donated money?
No support. Sorry.

How exactly do you confuse

with something other than a donation?

No support. Sorry.

Also with that statement, that means you don't support donations at all. Or because you think clicking on a donate button will lead to something else.

ALSO, unless the child knows all the credit card information and where they live, they aren't going to able to accidentally donate.

True that.

Why Not?

Thank you for all the support!

Support, PayPal would be great.

Don't you have to be 18 to have a Paypal?

How many scratch users out there are 18?
but it would still be convenient for adults that want to donate. Paypal masterrace.
support.

(also, make the title more clear. I thought you meant for donating to users, and I was already readying up an argument but then I saw you meant actually donating to Scratch)

I'm not, but my Mom has a paypal and she lets me put game revenue on it.

Semi-support, as I don't see many users having a PayPal to donate, but I do see this would be useful for the ST if anyone actually did donate.

Yeah. Although most people won't donate, (because regardless of the ways to pay you need a credit card, minus that US only bank account transfer.) for people that DO want to donate, it'll be much easier.

That's not a valid argument, as how many Scratchers out there would have a credit card? Yet we have that payment method.

Exactly- saying that you have to be 18 or need a credit doesn't matter for this- because you already need to be an adult and have a credit card to donate.

All this suggestion is doing is making it easier for those same adults to donate. Isn't that a good thing?
