i dont see why though.

id have no problem donating to a user that is struggling irl for money etc.
or if theyve always wanted a certain item but just cant afford it, i would feel good helping

just my personal opinion

How do you know if someone is poor?
Forum gold can be sent back and forth pretty easily.

There's also "why am I locked" forum for paying back your debts :thumbsup:

Well this is rather interesting.

GoFundMe forum would not have to be used for begging.

I am sure said forum would need its own set of rules, much like the BNP community.

It could also allow users who exercise trades not necessary directly supported by our site but supported by the s/a team. IE a Loan. I have seen plenty of people be scammed, locked, and more over Loans.

While what you asking here is borderline difficult as all heck to accomplish our site here has ideas for things no so directly related with our forums, ie Travel and Backpacking.

So what could we really do with a GoFundme jsp? Party hard I suppose. Maybe even reduce the chance of scams and more. Certainly GoFundme style is not about begging but about getting support because people feel/agree.

I would assume one would have to acquire all the forum gold in order to receive the forum gold, and the site itself would take a % cut too.

Imo, while this could be used for people in need, it could also be used for people who are interested in getting involved again and have absolutely no place to start but know everything in the world to go ahead. It could be used for large community projects, and more.

In a weird way what you mentioned here reminds me of the Donate for me Tool, specifically Star Upgrades.

There's nothing stopping one from placing a Gofundme link in their profile or sig. A dedicated forum is unnecessary considering the many popular social arenas to rally one's cause (such as Reddit, Facebook, Twitter, etc.) Furthermore, General Chat probably has the highest traffic of all the non-gaming boards here, so posting there (as others do) would probably be your best bet.

P.S. Asking for help acquiring items, aka begging is not allowed on this site. There's no shortage of helpful players and guilds around either plus a lottery.
