You are absolutely right. There is a difference between helping a mate and asking a total stranger for cash for oneself.

It’s nice to know that if you were rolling in it you would send money to total strangers. If this was the case, this forum would be full of people asking for money, and that’s where I think the problem is.

We all have the right to ask for money, we all have the choice to donate or not, but is this forum the place to be asking for money?

The original posting has obviously started an interesting debate judging by the numbers who have been looking. If people think it is ok to ask for money on this sight, start up a new section called ‘Funding’ or something similar, but if people think it’s not appropriate they should say so and the forum should act accordingly.
