@ricky I remember the 10x too, and somehow missed the point that it was for a server.

While my ratio is solid by a few TB, I sent in a modest # of Euros for that promotion, because I realized that I receive a lot of, um, benefits from my ongoing time here.

Of course, a lot of donations help individuals keep their ratio at the proper level. But even if a member has a great ratio, I'd encourage those with the financial ability to donate from time to time.

I think I'm due again soon. And as I come from a marketing background, I would gently suggest that the Home Page promotion be updated from "New Year's."

Perhaps a "Spring Fling" or other ideas...!

@nysmfan Seems to be quite rare, and tied to a specific need or purpose above and beyond, when it happens.

One special I remember was a 10x and it was earmarked to replace a server. Was happy for the extra, but it felt good to help with that. Based on my experience so far, there will be no known "when".

Do you remember any of the notes with the specials you came across? 12x sounds intriguing and huge!
