How long does one donation allow you to post in the group section?

[sarcasmo]

I was trying to post in the Atheist group but it said I have to be a donor? I have donated as recent as last year but lost my job on 4-20-08 and can no longer afford to donate. I feel as if I am being punished for not being able to afford to donate. Could someone please explain this nonsense to me, Thanks. On edit: I don't feel D/U is being very inclusive by holding donations over ones head to post in groups.

1. one year n/t

2. 1 year, but maybe a nice person will kick in and buy you a star for another year

I would if I could, but I've yet to get my first paycheck at my new job

3. I know it has been less than a year since I last donated, is there anyway to find out your last

donation?

4. There's a donor status link...

under the Options selection at the top of the page.

It should show the date of your last donation and when your donor star expires.

8. I would like to thank whoever gave me a Star, that will allow me to enter groups for the whole year.

Thank you so very much.
