I think I may have found my problem, I wasn't logged in when I made my donation, but each time it said it was going to FNW...

** I e-mailed staff@sourceforge.net about this with both paypal invoice numbers, hopefully they will correct it and get you the $40.00. **

If that doesn't work, any other ideas of who to talk to? I looked all over sourceforge and couldn't find anything or anyone to talk to about it.

well it looks like a lot of people make this mistake...
from looking at this page:
http://sourceforge.net/supporters.php
it seems like about 1/3 of the comments there make you think people were donating to a specific project (going quite a ways back), not source forge, but they got misled like so many people here. It is unfortunate. You could try to talk to paypal and report exactly what happened, sourceforge misled you into donating to them instead of your intended target. Especially the people who put eqemu in their comments, I think it would be bullshit of sourceforge not to refund it... But chances are, all they need to do is not reply to your email and theres prolly not much that can be done.

Default I donated a few nights ago.

I donated but didnt see my name in the donation list. Like a previous post, im not concerned with my name showing, only that you got the donation. Here is what it said when I donated.

Thanks for donating US$5 to fathernitwitAccepting Donations. If you want your name (and comment) to appear on their public Supporters page, enter a comment in the provided field (up to 100 characters). If you do not wish to appear on the public Supporters page, leave the comment field blank. To proceed, click on the provided PayPal button.

Just noticed my donation is in the source forge supporters. Thats a ripoff. It plain as days says "Thanks for donating US$5 to fathernitwitAccepting Donations" yet the donation went to source forge. Looks like alot of other donations for other programs went there as well.

that might explain why so many people appear to be making mistakes. Please please contact source forge with this information and see if they have anything to say. If they do not respond, contact paypal and report the fraud, because thats what it is.

"You all are doing a great job and are a service to all humanity" - Anonymous (Sourceforge Supporter List)


That was very obviously the comment of someone donating to the people that work on this project. =) Keep it up guys! You're a service to all humanity!
