[QUOTE="Wincenworks, post: 9167075, member: 7038835"] I find this very strange that this started with "don't shame people for charity" and now it's evolved into "this is a better charity" Simple answer: I don't. In fact I don't think about you at all. Ernie isn't owed the kindness of strangers - he certainly isn't owed their money. Everyone is entitled to their own decisions and judgement. There are people could donate, and aren't - that fine. There are people who would donate, but can't - that's fine. However, a certain group did state three years ago that this venture was [URL='https://www.facebook.com/DUNGEONHOBBYSHOP/posts/pfbid02DcHpojbjoXov5acY7KmvPLkeEFCUTvyKivLLdghb7uo7hyGf1DpWh48nqdwA3ZM4l?comment_id=228266885357557&reply_comment_id=228267628690816']about providing for Gary's family[/URL], etc. [ATTACH type="full" alt="Dungeon Hobby Shop Museum Dungeon Hobby Shop Museum My question to all the true gamers is: How would Gary feel about TSR being revived and his family profiting off it? We will make certain of that!"]312116[/ATTACH] Public proclamations generally demand public actions and public accountability. In this case they tried to bury this particular declaration by 1. Deleting all Luke's initial comments so that anyone investigating the matter would not be able to discover them and possibly also 2. changing the Facebook Page name so hard links to it would return error messages. I don't really have anything further to day on this other than what I originally said - given the current state of things, it is difficult to see how they can perceive of themselves as "the good guys" - as they so often do with their self-righteous (public) proclamations. They wanted to be in the spotlight. They got their wish, and now it's revealing a lot about who they are. [/QUOTE]
