    Flashlight is an arse for coming in here to post that instead of just not posting, however that does make a valid point that whatever is done should be anonymous (at least to the rest of the board)

    I just don't think it's a good idea to be setting up Paypal links on the site and inviting people to start sending money to other members. Asking for trouble. If that makes me an asshole, so be it.

    Fuck off, Flashlight.

    I doubt Shadow even knows about this at the moment.

    I wanna do something nice for somebody.

    You don't approve, stay the fuck out of the thread. The rest of us will do as we please, and you can go diddle one of your "clients" if you don't like it, 'cause I for one intend to do what I'm gonna do anyway.

    Try to get in my way and you'll just end up on the ground with a dazed look and my 12" footprint on your acne ridden face.

    I....don't think I can sufficently express how much I'd LOVE to rip Flashy's head off right now and feed it to some rabid rodent....but i trust you guys will make every effort at a cyber-approximation of it.

    Face too but he's apparently just a Flashy wannabe.

    Anyway, guys...we love you all for whatever you do or even just forthe willingness. I am not so proud as to refuse the help of friends who care enough to be there.

    whatever that makes me, that's what I am.

    But it does make me heartsick that even a dumbass like Flashy would assume my intent was to milk you guys for help.

    But another day for him.

    Elwood will have a number before i log off.

    I think you need to shut the fuck up, you fat little faggot. :)

    I think it's only fair that if the members of WF are going to donate money to help Shep, the least that could be asked for is visual evidence of the tragedy which befell him. I see no harm in posting a pic of the trailer home. Surely he has one, to document the evidence for insurance purposes.

    Should we tell Flash that he doesn't have any authority to tell the rest of us what to do, or should we let him go on talking to himself like a drunk homeless guy on the corner?

    I'm torn. :unsure:

    The Shadow has a character.

    The Flashlight has a reputation.


    This concludes our little vocabulary lesson for tonight. :async:

    Flashlight is full of fail.


    However, since it's Tamar's mind he apparently thinks he knows something about, I'll let HER address the issue.

    Batboy will happily pitch in. Shadow should post a list of general needs for those who don't want to send cash for whatever reason. Most people have all sorts of assorted unused stuff laying around that could help out.

    Oh, and Batboy is express mailing a nice big package of guano to Wordforge's resident douchebag....

    For chrissakes.

    Is it possible that Shepherd is actually an elaborate persona, carefully crafted over the course of many years, first at TBBS and then here, who appears to be a decent, honest guy but is in fact just a character operated by a clever scam artist?

    Sure. Anything's possible.

    But it's pretty damn unlikely. And if trusting somebody's honesty and wanting to help out somebody we've been part of a community with for years makes us fools, then frankly I can live with being one.

    Like Sally writes in her letter to Santa in the Charlie Brown Christmas special, Shep will gladly accept tens and twenties. :)

    Sorry guys, I'd love to help, but the two years of chemo and the bone marrow transplant pretty much has me tapped out.

    Glad everyone is ok, and hope the transition isn't too painful!

    We're with you, Shadow. We argue and insult each other here, but when it comes to the crunch, (most of) WordForge stands together.
