People actually do this? Im new here but this seems almost funny.

I can understand someone saying hes hungry and asking for money for food. (regardless of whether they do buy food or not).

But to buy a membership in this site?!

Yes, it's happened numerous times.

Skip,

I'm almost tempted to pay for another year for you, just for this thread. *g*

Almost.

Indeed.

This time, it was a man pretending to be a woman asking for a handout, which was supported by *himself*, pretending to be someone else that liked the photos he, as a woman, put up in his(her) profile.

Amazing.

Where the hell do these people come from?

You should of been here a month ago, one user (she whose name must not be mentioned) completely let rip with both barrels at the SC & voters in general, then came back in here less than a week later asking for a handout pleading poverty.

DPC has its fair share of nutcases.

Membership on the site cost almost 7 cents per day. You expect everybody to be able to afford that!?!

I'm a single father with a DSLR (or two) and I can barely save enough to afford to be a member. My membership expires in January and I only have 63 cents saved since last January.


Tell you what Robert, I'll trade you a membership for your old 707.

yep, but now we have a thread to point them to whenever the question pops up again ;-)

Yeah but I'd also leave a link to something like this Save Darfur as well. Offer people a choice. Hmm.. give money to a privileged 17 year old or help save lives?
