Having been a semi-regular yiff party user from the beginning, this is only the first or second time I'm aware of that the webmaster reached a monthly donation goal. Most months the server donation bar would either sit at zero the whole month or reach a low, sub-$100 figure, so even before the donation goals were increased to from $250 to $400 a couple months prior the site was leaking money fast. All in all I'm not surprised the webmaster started to feel disillusioned.
The site only accepted cryptocurrency donations, as explained in your web.archive link, and that was an obstacle to donating for a lot of users who couldn't set aside more than a few dollars for the site in the first place.
