pay for a CS account?

[freyar]

Sorry for the bother on this; I'm sure I've seen it before back during the big fundraiser, but I can't figure it out or find it on the FAQ. To pay for a Community Supporter account (or buy something in the store, I presume), we go through PayPal, but we do not require a PayPal account, correct? Also, as my wife doesn't like me to use credit cards on-line but I'd like a CS account, I have to ask: does anyone know of any problems with card numbers getting stolen through paypal use associated with EN World?

Thanks, and my apologies again for needing to take up your time!

Paypal is owned by eBay and prides itself on security.

In fact, it is so security-conscious that it routinely screws over merchants in favour of customers.

To my knowledge, we've had no problems with stolen credit cards to date, and I use the service myself (or did, when we still have the storefront running).

ONE NOTE: If you do buy a Community Supporter account, please e-mail me or Morrus to let us know, and we'll make sure it gets turned on. The automated subscriptions sometimes aren't working correctly, and one of the administrators has to turn it on manually. If you do, we'll get you activated as soon as possible!

I've never heard of PayPal having credit card numbers stolen before. As far as I'm aware, it has never happened.

Already bought it, and it seems (search, custom title) to be working properly!

Yep, we think we've fixed that bug. Hope so, anyway!
