Raystarter 2012: Get Your RPad.TV Wristbands!

Three years ago today, RPad.TV launched. It has been an educational, wacky, and enjoyable ride. The site has grown a lot in three years and I’m grateful for all your support. To take RPad.TV to the next level, I’m asking for PayPal donations. Make a donation of $5 or more and I’ll send you an RPad.TV wristband (pictured above, thanks to RPadholic N8R). The free wristband offer is good while supplies last (don’t worry, I have hundreds) and will only be sent to U.S. readers (unless you donate a silly amount of money, in which case I’ll fly to you and give you your wristband personally).

Donations will be used for the following:

Server Upgrades: I’ve upgraded the server once to deal with increased traffic and the site has already outgrown that server. I plan on moving the site to a more expensive server for increased performance and reliability.
Event Travel: I’d love to serve up more original articles and videos from shows like CES, GDC, PAX, Comic-Con, etc. These shows are expensive to get to and attend. With some luck, I’ll be able to cover more of them for you.
New Gear: Should donations reach a ludicrous level, they’ll be used for new video gear and software.

If you’re unable to make a donation, there are plenty of ways you can help out RPad.TV.

Send this page to your rich uncle, Bill Gates, and Tim Cook.

Help spread the word about this fundraiser through social media. Facebook, Twitter, and Google+ posts of this page would be appreciated.

Buy something from Amazon.com. If you enter Amazon by clicking on the advertisement on the lower-left corner, I’ll get a small kickback.

Check out the RPad.TV Amazon wish list.

Keep reading and commenting! The site is better when awesomely awesome people like you chat it up in the comments section.

Thanks so much for reading the site! It means a lot to me. I’ve learned so much from growing RPad.TV and it has been an extremely gratifying experience. There have been times when working on the site and hanging out with you guys in the comments section have kept me from going completely insane (I’m still two percent insane…most days). Thank you so much.

Now please join me in wishing RPad.TV a happy birthday. Three more years! Three more years! Three more years!!!

  1. Wow I can’t believe it has really been three years already. Time has flown by, but I suppose it makes sense, as I remember reading and commenting on a lot of these posts from my classes, and those are long behind me already. Three more years!

    1. I think you and BB are the youngest among the regular readers. That means you’re going to have to visit the rest of us in virtual nursing homes one day. Ha!

      1. Yeah I think I was youngest (weird coming from the oldest of four, and always the oldest for everything) when the site first started off, with BB just ahead of me in age. Pretty sure a couple people here are younger than me now. By the time any of you other guys (and gals) are in nursing homes we will surely have virtual reality implemented in facetime and skype, right? That should help things out a little bit, haha.

  2. Congratulations Mr Padilla. I see that rpad.tv and I share the same tastes in plasma televisions.

    rpad.tv is my first stop before the busy shopping season ahead.

    1. Yeah, I’m hoping to get a Panasonic plasma during Black Friday. My Samsung DLP broke over the summer, but I was able to fix it myself. I don’t think it’s going to last much longer though.

      Thanks for sticking with the site!

  3. 3 years… Wow. It really doesn’t seem like it.

    Thanks Ray for all you’ve done to help keep US sane at the same time.
