The last thing item number three in our 2014 update is really important for us to achieve the aggressive goals we've set out for ourselves this year which is more content with better quality across more channels. We will need people space equipment and all kinds of expensive stuff like that and for that we will need your help. We've had a lot of people ask us over the years if we take donations or contributions many con many content creators do and with a couple of exceptions we've always said no but now there is. We've worked out an easy automated system through LinusTechTips.com that cuts out the middle men who are keeping a chunk of your contribution for themselves and it pretty much all goes to us except a little bit to PayPal. So visit the contribution link in the video description if you like what we do and you want us to keep doing it. Honestly the benefits for the different tiers aren't really that different and because we're never going to charge for access to any of our content there's really no pressure and the amount that you contribute is completely up to you or if you do it at all it's completely up to you. Just know that every dollar helps us do what we're doing and do it better and you have our thanks and if you do want to contribute but you don't want to bother creating a forum account don't worry we have you covered as well. The forum now supports signing in with Twitter, Facebook and Steam so you can just quickly easily create well just sign in. That's pretty much all there is to it. And I think there must be one other thing because otherwise I don't know why you're even here other than to mock me so I'm leaving and I'll let you cover update item number four. So update item number four which in my opinion doesn't necessarily matter more or less than the other ones but apparently he doesn't care as much is the LinusTechTips conglomerate which is currently the eighth largest faction organization thing in all of Star Citizen. We just passed Red Faction aka Reddit Faction which was actually really cool though we do love those guys and once we get a hundred more members we'll be third in the world in terms of size which is actually pretty epic. Our activity levels are pretty insane as well as we're ranked number one or two we kind of bounce back and forth for activity which is really interesting. The chat is super active and on the forum we post a ton I think we're at like 27 pages right now so whether or not you're in the organization if you just want to talk about Star Citizen come visit us on the forum we can talk there. We have a ton of fun things planned for the alpha and beta stages of Star Citizen as well so if you are planning on playing Star Citizen and just want people to fly with that'll be a lot of fun join up. Casuals and Hardcores are both equally welcome as well as just everybody else. We'll have something to do for everybody I'm sure the Hardcores will stick in their kind of little groups and will play within themselves and get a lot done and I'm sure the Casuals will just have a great time. So join up today. Are they going to play with themselves? Is that what you said? They will constantly play with themselves. Join up today help us reach top rank three that will be awesome. As always subscribe and thank you guys for all your continued support throughout 2014. Thanks guys I'm back. I was never going. I know.
