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.

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). |

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.

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.

Since its clear that you sympathize with the Minni Rebels, in clear and foolish violation of her empirical edicts, I'm going to have to be blunt here: CVA is the Best alliance in Eve. We hold our space because we are THAT GOOD, and supported by our Empress herself. Since since the ONLY way you could disprove any of this this would be to kick CVA out of its space - an impossible task given the might of the Amarr Empire - and keep them out of that space - Again, impossible as our will is unbreakable! - and I know that will never happen, you should probably be kinder to your betters (Like me) instead of using profanity to show your ignorance of the language you no doubt learned in the gutter.
There is NOTHING you puny, insolent dust bunnies can do harm my Eve Alliance, so don't even try as you are wasting your time.

Thank you. The show will go on regardless. I will find a way to get donations to QG if I have to. This means a lot to me because my daughter was sick when she was born as well. She wasn't near as sick as Weston AKA King of Fighting. I know how hard it is emotionally. Lucky for me, I'm in the military so finances were no concern. That's not the case for QG. I have to help him |

To those suggesting that this is a scam, I would rather be out a little money at the expense of a scam (and let me state unequivocally that this fundraiser is legitimate) than possess a world view that assumes malfeasance and acts immediately upon that assumption, without evidence. You may call it caution or pragmatism, but it is equal parts pitiable and contemptible to take action to suspend an admirable cause based entirely on paranoia.

even if it was a scam... its a dollar, or some ingame isk, or potentially save a human being and provide that boy with a future and a life, and give his parents the biggest gift of all. I think its a scam worth investing in if it is a scam |

Here is the core issue I have with it: A strict reading the rules as DS presented them shows that this is a RMT scam.
You are asking people to pay real money to "win" the chance to basically buy isk.
That is RMT, and Real money Trading is against the Eve/DUST rules.

Thank you very much!
It would appear the devs think otherwise. If you don't want to donate, don't, but please stop trying to hinder a good cause.
Also, please post on your main. |

Making my return to the Dust community to learn about this!
Getting to know Quick over the last year plus in Dust has truly been a pleasure. He is a remarkable man and cares for both his families, real life and gaming, profoundly. I wish nothing but the best for him, his wife, his child, and anyone else close to him that is enduring this. I will try to be on tomorrow and support this! |

Two reasons you're wrong.
1) There is no guarantee that you will win the ISK. 2) I am not the person receiving the funds.
If it was directly "send me money, get ISK", I'd see your point. Please stop trying to derail a great thing. |

I'm the same way. I play for the social aspect more than the game itself. Dust has easily the best chat system of any console game I've ever played.
Thanks for the donations! |

Everyone should participate, and if you donate ISK to the fund CCP should give you a Weston drop suit, much in the way Piranha gave people that donated to a cause Sarah's Mech. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2lCRkUmZb9U. There are real people behind the avatars we see on screen, sometimes I feel that is forgotten. |

You have such a big heart and should be commended for what you are doing. You have earned my respect and for this I stand and o7
This is the comment I put up on our ONS Facebook page.
"What DS is doing to raise awareness and bring more light to Jason and Amandas sad situation is amazing. I have just provided a donation. I'm upset that it was a small amount but that was all I had left in my bank account My prayers are with Weston and I hope he pulls through and survives."

Thank you very much! I think I'm gonna cry.
Seriously CCP devs are the best devs I've seen in any gaming community, as they have proven time and time again that they really do care about their players.
I'll donate 2 Million when I get back on. It's not much but sadly I don't have 550 Mill like many other players.
And i'll donate $$ in IRL as well. |
