Well that's why I put a question mark. To drum up communication. Or you can just stamp your feet and declare yourself out.
Well see what the consensus is. I could try and plug it through RR. It all depends on whether folk want to raise as much as humanly possible or keep it low key in some sort of 'look at what not 606 has done' sort of thing. The way I see it help 1 person or help half a dozen. But I'm only going to donate a fiver so I don't have any grounds for opinion. Just trying to get communication going and offer a potential platform.
I never set this up to be a task to find out how much we can humanly possibly raise, it was more a not606 exercise for the board to be proud of, but obviously I'm just one person so I wouldn't want to stand in the way of charitable donations. If it were purely up to me, I'd prefer Comm in and to keep it low key than to maximise its exposure. It's down to the board members on here to decide though. Thanks to Jerry either way for her generosity and intentions
Like you have said. Its my perogative. I will never take part in something that looks like a media do gooder story. The original plan was brilliant. Low key. Get upset if you want. I wont change my view.
Never meant to cause any bother with sharing this. There's a lot on the Sundermad site who came from here and for their own reasons choose not to use this board any more Thought it was a brilliant idea and just thought there'd be some on there who would like to contribute
As much as I like you & by god I do. Like me you can be a total ****er at times. This is one of them.
Not at all imo. The idra is great. I actually was gonna donte more. But didnt want to come across as a ****ER on this thread.. Maybe try looking at my point of view.
I actually don't think this needs promoting any more than what has been done on here and Sundermad. Last time i looked the total was up £160 and that's just from today (i think) the ceiling is £250 and at this rate will probably bust tomorrow if not sooner. Just my opinion like.
Which my friend you have made yourself look exactly like. Dunno what's put your nose out of joint by somebody else trying to help. Anyway, big kiss.
Ok if thats how you think. Im not offended. Actually couldnt give a ****. You just like mr get something in ya head and wont let go. For me. This is one of thosr scenarios. I dont want to be part of a media circus Sunderlandmad...twitter can do their pwn thing. Three times as many people will then benefit
I think it was your haste to sack it off at the mere suggestion that made you look a ****er. Dummy spitting . You only had to say "I rather we didn't" and your views would have been taken on board and discussed like the grown people are now. But you preferred to spite charity in response to somebody looking for feedback on a suggestion after the cause had already been shared beyond our community(with the best intentions).
Er yeah ok. How was i to sack a 3rd party off without prior knowledge? This was meant with the best intentions from el tel. As part of this board. If you folks had felt that strongly about it. There would be other threads or tweets elaewhere. Lets give SOMEONE a special xmas. I do believe was the intention. Not...LETS TURN IT INTO A MEDIA CIRCUS.
Right... Firstly can we not argue, cos this thread's supposed to show the best of this board Secondly, I think we keep this local for now, if we succeed and it's a worthwhile cause then maybe we can do a bigger campaign next Xmas. Thats my opinion, although Jerry's a star for using her influence to make this bigger, she's obviously got a great heart and we'll need her sort of ambition next year. If the money generated got out of hand it'd end up a full time job finding worthwhile causes or we'd have to give it to a charity, and without sounding heartless that just doesn't appeal to me right now. That Brothers In Arms sounds a perfect cause for a bigger campaign next Xmas
@Sidthemackem Can you edit the thread title to contain the link or maybe the first post or something as the link is lost in the thread ATM. Or maybe scrap this thread and start a new one
