Donate (http://www.otakuworks.com/donate.html)

With less than two weeks left in the month and no donations as of yet ((:[)) we are forced to start another Donation Drive. What's the difference, you ask? Well, we usually don't beg for donations; rather, we let them come as they come. But when no one donates and more than half the month passes, we start a Donation Drive, where we actually ask you to donate, and threaten to close down the site or cut down on manga if there are no donations. A small bright side is that in the three years Otakuworks has been around, we have only held four Donation Drives (to my knowledge), meaning you guys come through about 90% of the time. We hope you do again.

Just realize that Hellspire and myself will not keep paying the costs to keep this service free for you. We both attend college and have jobs. We both put ridiculous amounts of time into this site, all for you. No donations will be interpreted as no interest, and we will close the site and save ourselves the $200 every month.

Please take this seriously.

Some incentive to donate:
Search Upgrade

Searching has been improved to allow you to do release based searches. Say you want Naruto chapter 444, you can now enter "Naruto chapter 444" or "Naruto chp 444" or "Naruto ch 444" and it'll return the result for you. Say you want episode 22 or 2 of gundam 00 or gundam 00 season 2 episode 22 or 2, the same rules apply! Simply type "gundam 00 ep 22" or "gundam 00 episode 22" or "gundam 00 season 2 ep 22". Naturally these are not all the possibilities naturally, the only way to know is to try! Further search enhancements are planned to allow you to search the other areas of our site (such as seiyuu, genre, etc)

Edit: I have made more changes to the search which show now a list of suggestions for more effective searching and a small auto-convert to remove 'xvid' 'mkv' 'avi' 'h264' and other format tags from the end of the search to at least show the episode release in question. To see the list of suggestions, click here (http://www.otakuworks.com/site_search/sket+dance+ep+733+avi).

Please let us know if you have problems, and do support us in our donation drive featured above. Best, OW Staff.

I would love to be able to donate, but too many bills I have to pay first. That is why I only visit the forum, the main site really means nothing to me.

I was doubling the amount of exclamation points every day until they carried over to the next line.

The goal was decreased because I paid some of it, and also thought people would be more likely to donate if I decreased the goal (thus 'raising' our progress %).
