Another reason to have a suggested donation is if you are using a venue
that doesn't allow a cover. I'll swing either way depending on
the opinions of other members, but I would like to point out that this
would set a precedent that non-free events are ok at Sudo Room as long as
there is a door split.
Thanks,
Andrew

Mark that is a great explanation!
Now that I think about it - I encountered that once when people were
selling-but-not-selling alcohol.
My vote does not matter at all, but I vote to just let them charge
admission, let them give you half. Things cost money, I don't think
there is anything wrong with openly acknowledging it and being
practical about it.

Aside from the
no-one-turned-away-for-lack-of-funds thing so broke people
can attend, events often have a suggested donation because a film,
recording, piece of music, etc. may be licensed for non-commercial use
only.
That means they would not permit the movie to be
screened when an
admission
fee is charged. But you could suggest donations
(another alternative
would
be sell food/snacks/etc.)
