    Should people ask for donations from strangers on KB?

    (Hey, you knew it was going to be done).

    Me? I would sell everything I owned before asking strangers for money.

    They should do whatever they like. Why start a thread about what other people should do?

    Should they? Sure why not. Up to the person giving to decide if they should or not. Sad that anyone should be in the place they have to ask on a forum like this though.

    I don't like people asking me for donations as we are not in a position to give to all the collectors out there and we have our own charities that we give to. Vern

    What if the people asking for money are not prepared to disclose what they are trying to achieve with your money?

    You don't need to.

    Ask your government. If they agree, they will take the money you require from strangers, at gunpoint. Even if those strangers are completely opposed to your proposed expenditure, they will pay.

    You DON'T need the authorisation of the man paying for your idea. You merely need the authorisation of the man with the gun.

    Sad that thread would be stuck straight into PD when it has more relevance to things happening on this site than a lot of the other shit on here

    What if the people asking for money want to keep their assets rather than sell them?

    I mean, heaven forbid that they should use their own money.

    who the fuck put it in pointless drivel ?

    KB loses mana every day for this kind of shit. It was a valid thread, with valid questions and valid answers.

    Use lots of them

    I have no problem with people asking for donations but they should clarify exactly what it will be spent on, also what will happen with any excess, I have donated to things on here before but it all depends on why they are asking and what circumstances led them to
