If you want to get rid of the ads here, donate to the site

It's completely voluntary of course, but "becoming a star member" (you get a yellow star after donating) removes all the ads. It's better than an ad blocker, because you're supporting the site.

The suggested donation used to be $35 per year but they got rid of that text. You can donate as little as a dollar, as far as I know. Again, donating is VOLUNTARY but in return you get rid of the ads.

Best wishes to all.

1. I make my donation every year. Worth it.

Even though a lot of the ads I got were things like: "Sexy mature ladies want YOU!"

2. haha and some of the "ladies from Russia are keen to meet you" type

3. I donate and not just to avoid the casket ads

that follow me everywhere on the interwebs. DU is a community worth supporting.

6. I do the same for the same reason.

DU has a nice format and is very informative.

I get lots of info I simply wouldn't get elsewhere and that I love to explore.
