Hey everyone.
As most of you probably have seen here or heard around the community, STB leader QuickGloves and his family have been going through hell the past couple of weeks. This week's Drunk Night will be dedicated to raising money for them. It will be similar to the regular ISK giveaways, but it will NOT be "must be present to win". I'll explain.
Any and all donors from downtime Friday the 11th to downtime Saturday the 12th will be entered at a rate of 1 ticket per $1 entered. I don't know how out-of-country donations work. If you can donate, great. If not, having you participate in Drunk Night and bringing your friends is good enough for me. To do this, I need proof of donation. When you donate, you should receive a confirmation email. Either screencap that confirmation email or forward that email to me with your character name. My email is [email protected]. ALL ENTRIES WILL BE SENT TO THIS EMAIL ADDRESS. There is no other way for me to confirm donations.
The fundraiser we will be sending money to is their GoFundMe find. Here is the link.
http://www.gofundme.com/4lyv34
I'm hoping that through corporation and Merc support, we can build the biggest ISK giveaway to date. Remember, the bigger the pot, the more entries we will get. I will update this post with the pot amount. Send donations to the character named DRUNK NIGHT.
I'm asking for all the ISK and donation support we can possibly get. We as a community can continue the already amazing support we have given to QuickGloves and his family. Let's make this not only the biggest ISK giveaway (record is 142 million), but we can make a huge difference for the QuickGloves family. If we get enough ISK donations, I will be splitting the pot to allow more chances for people to win.
Thanks for reading! If you have any questions, suggestions, or ideas, feel free to reply here or contact me by email or through Dust. I will be streaming live both Friday and for the giveaway(s) Saturday at a time TBD.

Thank you for your input. The thing is I have seen proof. I wouldn't put my reputation on the line as well as the money of my friends, followers, and squadmates if I wasn't 100% sure. |

Dubbs brought the original ordeal to light on our personal forums and he was clearly feeling for QG, so I'll let him know about this and see if we can't donate some ISK as a corp for the prize.
We've had several people donate real-life money as well (one guy gave 500 dollars). |

DS, if you were not already going to use it, please put that 100 mill I gave you last week into this. I'll probably add another 50 to it. |

I have reported this campaign to GoFundMe as a possible issue, with the intention of making sure that it is fully legit and not just an Eve/Dust scam.
Given the Eve Communities History, and Dusts own connection to Eve , I just want to be sure that this is fully legit and not a massive scam for isk/money/etc as anytime anybody asks for ISK/Money I cant help but think SCAM SCAM SCAM.
To that end I want to be clear that did everything in my power to be clear in my report to them that this does sound like a sad situation, and if it is legit, it should be supported. To that end I have requested that the page stay up and be supported even if it is found to be technically in violation of a strict reading of the GoFundMe terms of use, as seems to be a possibility.
One War, One Universe, after all.
Oh and if you dust bunnies want a place to direct your rage, my main's alliance is CVA so you cant touch me.

There are updates on the GoFundMe page as well. I sent an email to GoFundMe explaining what I'm doing and asked if it was ok. Awaiting response now. If they say we can't, we'll find another way. This is happening. |

I don't use facebook; Its just a data collection tool used by marketing companies so other marketing companies can spam you with targeted ads, and their IPO stated that explicitly.
That said, you can post anything online and that doesn't make it true; So I personally suspect this entire thing is just a possible scam, or at least even if the baby is in some way sick (And I personally doubt that is true as the images on hat site looks edited to me), that others are seeking to scam others using the situation in some way since that is after all how CCP's game communities tend to work.
So I wouldn't be surprised if the ISK donation stuff is just a way to get free ISK while they can profit from the possibility of a sick kid, since that's not against any of the rules for Eve or Dust.
So given the Eve/Dust communities reputation, CCP's own marketing that promotes that sort of evil/theft/etc as a positive for the games, as well as the senseless attacks on Amarr themselves, I would rather be on the safe side.

As a fellow amarr, i can vouch that QG's kid is sick and this isnt a scam
Also CVA is the laughing stock of the entire eve playerbase, thats why they have to set everyone they see to KoS, to pretend they have authority
Please, enjoy your alliance of bads (although some people in corp 54 are decent, but thats like 2 guys) but don't try to spread lies thats CVA are good :p |

I'm sorry this is happening. I hope you know I only have the best intentions. If you could please email me, maybe we can discuss this privately.
That being said, I contacted GoFundMe directly, and they said the in-game fundraiser is good to go. Here is a screen cap of the email from my phone.
