I don't know where to post this nor do I know if this was asked already.

I'd like to have a .com domain for my forum and some other things which cost credits, ergo money. But asking plain for danoations is a bit odd. The more, most of my members are on my forum because we're something like "politically pursued refugees" (haha, now that I read it it's even more funny) of another site which is asking for donation so badly, it's filled with ads for anyone who doesn't pay per month.
So I don't really just put that donation thing on my site.

I planned to sell things like T-Shirts and Mousepads and those stuff of my site and take the earning as the donation. When I brought up the idea my members liked it. The question is just, am I allowed to sell these things directly on my site? (As I said, the incoming is used like donations' money) And if not, am I allowed to make this shop on another host and post the link?

You're allowed to sell thing on your forum (or via your forum if the terms suits better)

You're even allowed to keep the money

Oh, good!

Thanks. That answers my question. You can close it.
