    I currently only have $1000 in my balance.

    However, I will work hard over the long weekend and try to put together around $50,000 to donate to the cause!

    I was not affected directly by this... I don't even know what to call it, but because several of my friends were affected and many more besides I decided to donate all my money. Thank you @jmichael214 for doing this. It is things like this that really show the quality of ECC. I'm glad to be here, and I'm glad to see the community come together like this.

    Dear God. Welp... I'll keep working on breaking it down tomorrow. I'll try to stay out of vanish so people can donate.

    And I'm going to start installing trade signs full of the more valuable materials in the portal building. Because I do not want to wait forever to turn this stuff into money for the players, I will arbitrarily set the price of all materials at one-half to two-thirds the price of the same item in @Hiccabup's shop in the blue market. Whatever makes for easier math, which is not my best subject. So you can donate and be saving money, too, and getting something you can use for it!

    Thank you @jmichael214 for doing this amazing fundraiser, you are truly an honorable and admirable man! ECC is incredibly lucky to have you as a member. When I get a chance to catch you in game I would like to donate $40,000 in addition to all of the proceeds from my spawnshop for the next 2 or more weeks. Thank you again for your kindness and compassion.

    You know i haven't met a true identity of ECC. Well I'm happy to say that this shows why ECC is different than other servers, because we all know each other, and help each other. In a way im glad this happened because it exposes the love in this comunity. I just wanted to thank Phys, Andrew, and Jmichael for the tremendous support, and to all those generous donators. As of right now i have no money but i was so touched by this that all the money i make in the next few weeks will be sent to Jmichael for support. God bless you all and there is no place I' would rather be than ECC.

    @jmichael214

    The world needs more people like you. Thanks for all the care and effort you've put in for the economy. I'll try to see if I can I increase my $400 balance to donate.

    @jmichael214 pm in game next time we are both online at the same time, i would like to donate some money to this, and also my services to anything involving labour, ie collapsing the town or filing any lwc's that need doing. you know the boring stuff.

    also, @andrewkm i highly doubt you'll ok this but i feel the amount of effort and charity @jmichael214 has put into this event he deserves some sort of reward. i would like to suggest offering him a free upgrade from tycoon to eco leader, or creating a new rank called [Eco-Icon] which goes next to his [Tycoon] so show his unbelievable generosity in doing this event totally off his own back!

    This is an awesome thing you are doing here @jmichael214, and am more than willing to help. I do have a few questions though:
    What happens to the funds that go over the estimated 5mil in defaulted funds? (I believe this will be raised and more most likely)
    When paid back, will the amounts that are still due (signs in the portal room) be taken into consideration?
    Also, many affected players are asking for individual donations to recoup their losses, so will this also be taken into consideration when dispersing the funds?
    And finally, when wil appeals, will he still be made to repay the money he owes and where will that money go?
    I personally love the idea of the community coming together and helping each other - that is why I play here, however, many events like this in the past have led to undesired results if not thought completely thru.
    This had been suggested a while back by some leading members of our community, but was never implemented so I have my concerns with this process.

    @jmichael214... this is awesome! I'm so glad that someone did this, and I would be more than happy to participate. I'll be kind of inactive the next 3 days, but if I can get on I'll definitely donate some of the money I have. It's the least I can do for so many affected people

    @AdmiralD -- I hadn't given any thought to what would be done if we raised too MUCH money. Probably send the extra to Phys or Andrew for some similar purpose. Things like unpaid loans to Willclo would be up to Phys. I don't have any involvement in running the server, but from the way this was described last night, there will never be an appeal.

    While the town is very nice, the material are probably not worth more than $600-800,000. Unless people really empty their piggy banks, which I'm not suggesting, I don't think we'll raise enough to compensate everyone.

    Bear in mind -- $824,800 of this is in the form of one huge donation from andrewkm... we don't have two of him. :) And $130,000 or so is the cash that was in my balance before I found out --money Willclo provided for materials to build the town... so I don't think we'll hit $5 million, although the response has been great.

    Thank you for the quick response JM. I guess we will just have to see how the owners decide to handle this.
    Andrew making a donation is especially inspiring since he is the one who took a huge loss in real dollars and fees in addition to returning money back to the economy in order to help relieve some of the pain those that were scammed have experienced.
    If you need help tearing down, simply leave donation chests somewhere and I will be glad to help you take down and place materials in the chests for you. Just let me know.
    If you place a few donation signs around it may be easier than everyone trying to give you the money - and some people would prefer to donate without being known.
