No idea but my bank bounces checks from a Canadian sponsor and they are clearly marked US funds. Stupid bank gives no reason on the return so I had to just drop the sponsor.

250 nickels in the cup.

nada man, busy as hell like a waitress carrying 9 plates of food.

pool and some brew sound killer right about now.

have fun man.

:thumbsup

I was wondering what you were doing.

me too. feel much better now.

It does seem like the recent threads are usually near the top of the page.

good to hear

and it seems that older threads are usually near the bottom.

Hi Tala,

I know you and like you and you made a good impression on me from pc bbs, but I would have felt a little bit better from the $50 I sent over if I had received a short "thank you" email or icq.

But no harm done, I know a lot of donations were made and perhaps I was overlooked. But if I didn't receive a thank-you, perhaps others didn't as well.

Just letting you know, and better late then never ;)

ps. sorry if my post bumped a thread you want to die!

hitting the shower right about now.

fletch: definitely :)

its called fraying

Why?

When I donate to the Salvation Army, I don?t have to think about how ungrateful they are and expecting more. Yes, Tala should get the money donated to her, but ?why complain about donations when you cannot cash a check.

BTW, no charity or person ever asked me to change my way of donating. Brad didn?t complain that I used my A.E. card and I hope he deducted the expenses he occurred.

not if you select "ascending" try it sometime. pull down bottom of page - click go. ;)

i had it selected once and didnt realize it, what a fucking weird day, 30 days worth of threads in the wrong order, totally threw me off for a little while.

heheh

Now this is what I call an entertaining thread :thumbsup

Christ...

Jesus!!
they ask for $1500 they pay $5300 and now there is a sudden need for more!
WEEEAAAAAAA CRY ME A FUCKING RIVER!!!!
Brad I know a fuck load of other charities I would deam as ACTUAL NEEDY CHARITIES!!

Has anyone stopped long enough to ask what position this person would be in if we didnt work in a industry where we do pretty good and can offer some financial help!!

Fuck kinda makes me sick t o my stomach!!
I mean FUCK !!

I tend to agree. I only donated a small amount but due to these type of threads I wish I didn't in the first place.

just switched over to that now - fun.

I remember Brad Xtremepay going to bat for Tala..

now i bet he wishes he did not..

can we say Greed?

$5300.00 and thats not enough?

I think Brad Xtremepay should keep 1k for his troubles!


my

:2 cents:

GIVE THE MONEY BACK TALA!

It is??? well I apologise for being more focused on business then partying and blowing money at worthless webmaster conventions which are nothing but big ass parties and showoff shows.

Guess I need to get on the ball, forget real business and stick on my party hat and become a webmaster convention party hound:(

Guys, reread the thread or something. It's not about greed. People donated generously for a very good reason. There's no need to tarnish this. They intend it to get to the person they were trying to help out. If you sent money, you'd feel the same way.

As far as I can tell, Tala and Brad are both good people but of course, that doesn't make for good drama or entertainment value .. thus, the numerous tangents this thread took.

Duh.

Keeping money for doing charity work?
haha yeah right. That sort of shit will get you put into jail.

GFY can be described as a wild mob. Once the shit starts falling, it's hard not to get hit. I haven't followed this story in precise detail, but it's easy to tell that people have made mistakes with words, others have misrepresented stuff, other people have taken falsehoods for fact and commented further on them. Still others have found bits and pieces funny, and responded with their own stupid comments to try to advance their humour.

I'll bet over half the people reading this thread don't truly understand it. (like you)

Just another chapter in the timeless human drama titled 'Greed'

Just another clueless post :2 cents:

You did nothing wrong hon, sticking up for a friend was the right thing to do. Especially when people promised to help out in a bad time and then collected the money and kept it so far.

Sounds like someone needs to open their own red cross, they did the same with 9-11:(

Anyway Brad, if you got money that was sent for a good cause, for a good person and fellow webmistress and stood up and said you would collect the money for her, don't you think the right thing to do is be honest at least?

Pretty sad when bigwigs in this industry let money get the best of them and ruin their reputation and business.

Never know who you can trust on message boards these days...too many scammers, freaks and idiots. Call me what you wish it doesn't bother me but you should check yourself twice before condeming someone for trying to help out a sick friend who deserved the money from the kind hearted people who wanted her to have the money...OBVIOUSLY!!!


Get a fucking life Brad!!!! Hate me if you wish, I don't do biz with you anyway, but you peeps need to lay off Tala and Tootie on this issue and get the fuck over it, childish immature motherfuckers!!!

Here's is :2 cents: ..buy a clue.. I wouldn't do biz with you either

Just when this thread was getting boring.

My :2 cents: who gives a fuck if you would or wouldn't, thats not the topic here idiot! Stick to topic or butt the fuck out

You're an idiot. We know your game though playa... Trying to suck up to get some of that GFY pussy eh? :Graucho

For god's sake, listen to Brujah!

I happen to be happily married you fucking crackhead! How old are you again 12? Still off topic peter puffer, get on topic or butt the fuck out! This is not the thread to build to your post count loser!

Charities have to pay the bills too. You'd be surprised at how small the amount of money that actually goes to the charities usually is.


That's what makes it so entertaining. And in some cases, even the shit storms have a silver lining. :winkwink:

indeed good post Brujah

END OF THREAD

dont cross this line

I think in the near future, if someone needs help, it could best be handled in one of three different ways:

#1: Send the money directly to thier own PayPal account or whatever, skip the middle man. Problem solved.

#2: Dont send shit, hope they die. Weed out some of your competition.

#3: Just turn a blind eye to the situation.

I dontated a small amount for Tala but from now on I am using option #3. Or #2 depending on who it is needing the help :)
