I guess I didn’t clarify but anything that I donate to, I want to know the full effect of my dollar. There are certain organizations or causes I don’t donate to, because they don’t use their money in the best interest of the consumers/users.
I didn’t realize that the pictures used on the site cost so much for them & that the history that we have available does as well. Now that they do, I can reconsider. See? If I didn’t ask, I wouldn’t have known
Secret Santa was brought up on the previous page. It was a near disaster, this last one. We’ll be doing things a lot differently at the end of this year.
Well I say it was a near disaster because quite a lot of people didn’t receive their gifts and people who were active around the time of the Secret Santa who got their gifts, and didn’t send theirs suddenly went silent to me and on the forums when I questioned them about sending to their assignment. So a lot of people weren’t happy, and rightfully so.
But thanks for assuming and jumping to conclusions.
Last time we talked about this, you said that people went rogue, and you didnt want them sending stuff over 10 bucks or something, which is why i said this xD So I thought you might have ment there would be some kind of silly restriction ect, which i think would be dumb, because if someone grades something they dont pay much for and it gets a 10 and they have a few of them… doesnt hurt to go to someone as a good present.
I don’t remember being worried about peoples huge gifts, if I was though it might have just been a first reaction to it. It was a pretty stressful ‘event’ to run. But in hindsight it’d be silly to get upset about people giving big gifts so this time I don’t think we will say anything about gift value limits or whatever. We’ll suggest a gift value but if people want to be generous then we won’t stop it.
But yeah it was just super frustrating that people who had participated in the true spirit of the SS with giving their gifts got nothing in return for their efforts, and what’s worse is the people who didn’t send gifts just dissapeared. I really felt bad for them. I didn’t get my gift either. As much as you and I disagree a lot and aren’t necessarily on the same wavelength for anything you are the sort of person I love to see participate in stuff like Secret Santa because I know you’d get super enthusiastic about it.
Yeah that is pretty crap that peeps be disapears ect. We do disagree on heaps of stuff, but just know I am stirring the hate pot, and am trying to make it as fun as possible when disagreeings xD So even if it sounds condescending at times, it was ment to be condescending in the most funnyest way possible… though i am not the brightest in the land, so my words may not be the greatest vocab range to do this, so it usually backfires and i get roasted… WHich is good. because pokesynd comes back to easrth… one day i will become a rational person muhahahahaha
I hope it is less stressful this time around, and everything works out. or atleast most of it.
