What part of this says that TANS is going to steal the money? He is going out of his way to give a scammed user his money and back on top of that he is going to be donating a potential 150k+ to this user. Please refrain from falsely accusing other users of doing something that is opposite of what is the truth.
Can you not read. Hes just doing this to gain money. Why would i donate to him so he can gain half of what i donate thats dumb, read before you type something.
This is what you think is happening I assume: Delucaco donates $2000, _TANS pockets that and give $1000 to Mrbojangles. This is what is really happening: Delucaco donates $2000, _TANS takes note of that, and gives $1000 of his own money on top of what you donated, giving Mrbojangles $3000 in total.
I am passing everything onto mrbojangles73, sorry if there is confusion. I don't understand how you were confused, though. Also, shotgunboy, I once let you use my melon farm for free. You died somehow and I picked up your melon sword. I gave it all back to you. Yet you don't trust me.
I lol'ed. In any case, seeing how I'm as broke as ever; I won't be able to donate funds. If you guys have any kind of artistic needs, I'll gladly chip in some of my time to crank out a banner, skin, or anything of the like. It's a shame that these things happen.
_Tans, I take it you are matching 1/2 of everything we donate? ie: If I was to donate 100k you would hand Bojangles 150k? The 100k from me and 50k from you?
You do realize that most organizations are like this IRL. He's going out of this way to organize this, he might as well take /something/
I don't get anything out of this. I will end up negative. I pass along all donations and give 50% extra on top of it.
I can see how the wording was confusing. I have re_written part of the OP. Sorry for the confusion. Shotgunboy0130
Can you make me an avatar and signature, and I will donate to mrbojangles73 on your behalf? 20k or 30k sound good? Idk what a good amount would be, let me know.
Hey I just wanted to say that this extremely generous of you and to anyone else who decides to donate. I wish I could help out but i'm pretty broke myself. Mr. B is a cool dude and he's recently lost a lot on this server. Not only this scam but the town we both live in got hit by a major grief and our homes and his town shop got completely wrecked and well there isn't much we can do about it. He's really deserving of this and he's been nothing but kind to the people of the town peace and others of the server. But yeah thank you _TANS and other donators!
I want to jump in here and leave a post if i can and say how much i ty _TANS for putting this together....i also want to thank all the people who are donating... and also all the ppl who cannot and sent pm's saying "sorry to hear about the loss" I was inches away from giving up on mc altogether because of the time it took me to earn the 460k because i dont lotto.. i earned the money from mining and having auctions to sell various goods...it took me months to get it and i was so happy to finally after months to get my hands on my very own msword... things didnt turn out like i planned and i lost it all...the staff tried to help and i guess was bound by rules and procedures they need to follow...then came along our awesome server owner andrewkm....he came into the situation and took over and if u seen the post..this guy doesn't play around he handled it quick....i want to thank u all again that has came to my rescue..especially u _TANS for putting this together...i love ECC always have...if u have a brain in your head anyone knows it's the best damn server , staff ,owner and people PERIOD!!! Im glad that the good folk on here come together and pick up a fellow neighbor when they get knocked down...That to me is what ECC is about and what ECC will continue to be thanks to ppl just like U .. Im proud to be a member of ECC and proud of the friends i have made on here... Thank u all for picking me up and dusting me off and making my day so much brighter... Thank u each and everyone ... MrBojangles73
Hi, just a piece of advice: rewrite this! It's very hard to tell whether you will give $2 for every $1 we donate or $1.50 for every $1 we donate, and you need to clarify this. Not doing so might mean someone might not understand it and accuse you of lying/scamming/dishonest trade in order to get more people to donate! Here's a suggestion: "...I will donate one EcoDollar. So, if you donate $2k, I will give MrBohangles73 $3k: that is, your $2k and $1k from my own balance. If you donate $20k, I will give him $30k..." Good luck, this appeal is very generous of you and I hope the community donates enough to return the money he was scammed!
