[Ansteorra] A word on soliciting funds for mundane purposes

[Patricia Schmidt]

I would beg to differ, Dear Cousin.  It is one thing to do to do fundraisers for 
charities or things that benfit others, but when it comes to self-benefit, I 
rather think not.  I don't care who it is.  When something catastrophic occurs, 
that's one thing, but "Help me win"?  Nope, we will have to agree to dissagree 
on this one.    


Just my 2 sheckel's worth.

Personally, I don't have an issue with it, so long as it's not overly done to 
death. 

I've seen folks use this forum for all sorts of modern fundraisings and 
projects, 

such as gift boxes for soldiers at war, or funds to help a family in need, 
as well as offers or seekings of job opportunities; even a rally to vote for 
Mrs Mississippi (for a former SCA Queen) in another kingdom. 
?
So,?as long as?posted briefly,?to the point, without massive multiple postings, 
but?in moderation, I don't have an issue.? IMHO
Cheers, Hillary?

And my question is: Why are we having ads for mundane fundraisers by somone's 
children for themselves to get some stuff done in their behalf by their 
parents. I am not offended, but I also do not think this sort of thing belongs 
on our net. Moderrator what say you?.

Thank you,
