I suggest getting your shit together. First off, sever your connections with her. Being around her makes YOU depressed, and your being around her makes it worse because she sees you as needy and clingy. Take a break, try something new, find something to do that you feel excited about, do something you've always wanted to do but you've postponed over and over for whatever reason. Next thing to do is to make a personal challenge for yourself. You THINK you're in love with this girl, that she's one in a million. But here's a news flash, even if you're one in a million there are still 6000 other people like you. Find new girls to hang around with and see for yourself if that girl you're "in love" with is actually your soul mate. Chances are, after dating 10 girls you'll find that out of those 10 girls you'll find one or two that were 10x better for you than that girl. I beg to differ. I've had a lot of good times with Jon747...Only time I get depressed being around her is when Stork loses. Oh wait... | ||

Iunno let people donate if they want to. He has an audience share here and people may be his fan wanting to donate to the cause. You are absolutely right to question and point facts out though. | ||

If the guy gets together $1000 then he can probably do subscriptions for 5 years at any video site. We're not talking about buying OGN or something. Well, here are the three scenarios. 1. BaeZZi takes all the donations and disappears. BaeZZi sounds totally trustworthy after stealing a TL admin's youtube account. 2. BaeZZi spends some of the donations on VODs. Are you cool with him pocketing 5k and only spending $100/year on the VODs? I don't want to TL to be funding his post-secondary education unknowingly. That's deceitful. 3. BaeZZi spends all of the donations on VODs. Cool beans. So, how long is this going to last for? What have we effectively bought? Do we need to donate again? We've donated a bunch of money and we have no clue what we've now got. I think that knowing the cost is very useful so you know exactly what you're donating for. This is obviously extreme but why would you even consider sending your money to anyone without knowing where it's going. Edit: That was a pretty quick and flippant response. I think that I already argued the scenario here in the OP. On February 09 2010 04:37 Durak wrote:Donating money to BaeZZi right now is not a good idea. Donations will not solve the problem of the source (oskyloveo) disappearing. BaeZZi has hinted that there may be new sources that he can pay to use. My first point with this is that he has yet to provide any specific details. What is the estimate of cost? If there is no estimate of the cost, how much should you donate? Will we need to donate again in a week? A month? My second point is that we probably won't need to pay for a new source. Based on Zatic's posts in the aforementioned thread, Zatic should be able to find a replacement source. My third point is that BaeZZi is replaceable. Zatic is a champ and is already doing the same job as BaeZZi. The reason there have been differences between nevake (Zatic+TL) and Jon747 (BaeZZi) is because of different sources. If in some terrible reality we need to pay for our VODs, why not pay Zatic who is reliable and a part of our community? | ||
