IMPORTANT: the flights are now covered, and Amanda should be fine: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=285511¤tpage=25#487 further donations will be for "paying event salaries (casters, talent, staff, etc.) and other event-related expenses" | ||

I don't see this whole high horse thing you mentioned however; I simply spoke of money used for donation in terms of effectivness; ability to save lives. I did discern in my original post that being charitable probably requires a particular frame of mind (being in a 'donating mood') and that if I chose to be charitable, I would use the money more effectively elsewhere. Sorry if I wronged you in anyway, clearly how you spend your money is up to you, I am merely stating my opinion, that it is not effective to be charitable to this mattter (Amanda), and that it is sad that ads that appear just as frequently as this issue (UNHCR) is overlooked. I understand your point, but when you tell people where they should put their money is kind of pushing it. Understandable the UNHCR does help others in need, heck, a lot of people. But you can not and should not push people/dictate to them that they should put it elsewhere. It is their money and their decision. Did I donate to the Amanda fund, no I didn't. Did I watch the stream, yes. Do I donate to the UNHCR, no I don't. Again, its a matter of choice and what people decide to do, even on a spur of the moment instances. So, if you want people to donate to UNHCR, then make a separate thread for it. I don't see anything wrong with that. =) Sigh, for the record, i believe ive only made suggestions towards the unhcr donation and was not 'pushing'anyone to do anything,excuse me if hat has been misrepresented. I stand by my point however, hat i do not agree with this donation drive (as do some others here) but good luck to you all fine folks out there willing to help. To all the others who have the thirst to berate me with 'high horsery' i have stated before i have nor had any intentions of that and it is unfortunate you choose to interpret my demeanor as such. | ||

I really feel like you guys should close the donations now, at this point people are simply giving paychecks to the " talent " of the event. Which is not what I would consider the Team Liquid community should be giving their money for. I mean I love Tasteosis but it is not up to me to make sure they get paid for the job they did if they got screwed over. At the very least I think you should update the OP saying that the initial $5000 has been raised. So people do not have to go through the whole thread to find that information. Edit: Mod edit at the top is much appreciated. Ya agree, I watched stream, my ad revenue helped a bit and I'm glad that Amanda has not been left $12k in the hole. Donations should be closed. Love Tastosis etc, but they lucked out in choosing to provide their services to an event that could not pay them. And before I get flamed, the amount that the casters, talent, production etc, are missing, does not result in them being sued or possibly facing jail for unpaid monies, so the two are completely separate! | ||

If there's anyone deserving to get paid, it's TorcH. That dude stepped up and saved IGN/PPSL event. | ||

I had always considered that maybe not all members of AZK were bad apples. But it clearly wasn't the case. + Show Spoiler + ![[image loading]](http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/802/azk.jpg/) Uploaded with ImageShack.us I just got ticked by the general lack of concern for a fellow human being this douche shows after the trouble this clan has caused to a generally peaceful SEA community. Oh ho that guy. Just yesterday he called everyone asking for details a "random no name scrub" Then proceeded to tell everyone to buzz off, saying this was between AZK and their sponsors. And that we'd be "humiliated" after the truth comes out. And now the community just paid for $5000 of the debt that resulted from their fuck up and he's still got the balls to act that way. lol. Just lol. | ||
