Here is the problem with that.

If someone sends me a six foot dildo, and nipple rings, no way am I going to post them on me.

If we include a moderator to supervise this, we need to have our lists of addresses and though I think ive met Jason, and I have met Mkoesel and he does know how to contact me outside this forum, I doubt anyone will be screwed if the entry pay is made.

Then again, six out of 15 things I've mailed went missing in the USA. How can anyone be banned for that?

So what you're telling me is that there is zero accountability? If someone sent you those items, of course you shouldnt post them on you. But you should post them in a pic at least when you initially open the package.

Exactly why i'm not going to mail anything out of NA.

No one is gonna get permabanned for a missing $20 present.

People have been allowed to hang around for much worse.

You amongst others have called me names and you're still here, right?

I dont recall ever calling you any sort of foul name. Maybe was an asshole but I would never initiate any sort senseless e-attack.

It's not about the money, it's about the season of giving and accountability.

Dude by playing you accept the risk. The sender can take a pic of themselves with the packet ready to be shipped, all paid off. If the mail of usa fucks up, and it will never be received, it would by my experience be a bad reason to be banned.

It's a world wide forum. If mailing to an other country is this much of a big deal, maybe you shouldn't enter into this. Personally I'd be happy to donate to the pot.

I think the main purpose of this is to donate to a charity. Like people have said before, I doubt someone who donates is going to rip someone off, and if they do...oh well. Its $20 and you gave someone you don't know a present. Christmas is supposed to be about giving, not receiving.

Whoever has the list of who got who could post the person that didn't deliver, and they would get shunned from the OT forum... that should be good enough.

Ok, Tonka will have to make more rules about accountability.

And I will PM you about you being an ass.

Oh I have an extra present for you for this!

I agree completely but the truth is that if the attitude shown above takes over the whole idea loses it's fun element. We have a tiny entry fee. By paying you get the name, the handle and a shipping address of an other member.


If we have a really early deadline like December 5th, packets should be on time world wide. This is supposed to be fun. Just a minor competition of who gets the most horrible present while we donate money for those who have no food 365 days in a year.

Or everyone could just donate the $30-50 directly to charity?

Most people aren't going to donate randomly to a charity. This is a good way to raise money for something like this. If you are one of those people that does, more power to you.

Those are really tempting suggestions. However, the shipping costs on a six foot dildo concern me... especially if I have to mail it to Finland.

Has the type of or specific charity been discussed?

Yes, we have. I claim to be the forum expert in these , so I have suggested a few shelters in the USA who get not enough funding and ive said also low cost animals shipped out are great. Also, to move on: I'm paying both your entry fee, and I am buying the gift for the person you get in the lottery.

It's a freebee for the non believer!

And they shouldnt. Part of my day to day big boy job is to investigate these non 501c3 organizations, their clients, and associated people. Now simple donations of $20 or so dollars doesnt seem like a big deal, but when it comes to an organization fronting as a 501c3 to gain money and launder it to organizations such as ISIS... there is a problem and that is when I get a call.

THat is absolute WORST case scenario here though.

Bahahahhahaa.

The irony in this if we'd get each other would pay off in laughter.

Even better: Let's double our Ss donation of ten bucks and I'll have you ship mine to my mothers address. I really want that photo of her face. I will donate a 50 just to see it!

Well again. We know where she lives, and only V1 doubts my deadliness, @sam335ic 's is even better since he is an ex marine.

We will have the names of the people who don't ship.

If he gives you a hard time about it, let me know and I'll rough him up a little.
