I saw all these posts requesting donations last night and frankly they made me rage a little. What follows is now an extremely mellow response.
For one, I agree with the above requests of some kind of proof, because this is just ridiculous. There are no "needs" in a place like VMK, where a player needs at the very least a decent enough computer and internet access in order to participate, there are only "wants". I don't see any justifiable reason for a "charity" here.
I will gift some items to close friends and the occasional polite random. There's no reason for anyone to hand off their stuff to some random on here just so they can, presumably, hand it off to yet another random.
I encourage players who are just so overtaken with Christmas Spirit to find some lucky recipient(s) of their own choosing to bestow gifts unto.
Also, not to be a Scrooge, but I donate plenty in real life. I don't need VMK to be yet another outlet in life where I should feel guilty about having something someone else does not.
I'm not even going to get into the realm of handing stuff off to some unknown on the forums, with fewer than 20 posts, in the name of "charity"....but I guess I just did.
Merry Christmas.
TLDR version: Nope!
