A Night Out On The Town...

Fantazmic2 · 02-August-02, 10:53 AM

...GK deserves one for all his hard work. He has improved the speed of this site, the looks and the Threads. He has spent numerous hours working on this site.

I propose we use DUCKS PayPal account and setup a $5.00 donate to GK Night Out On The Town Fund.

What do you all think? I feel that we can raise enough money for one hell of a nice dinner and a show.

problem i dont trust paypal at all

Miststlkr · 02-August-02, 08:38 PM

I have no problem with PayPal... just not sure i trust Mr Alcatraz over there

any guy that runs around in black latex thinking he's got wings is a little to far gone to be trusted with my loot

:p

BigAkita · 02-August-02, 08:46 PM

Well, there are a couple of times that my life depended upon Duck and his crew. Duck and company came through for me, I trust him fully.

The only thing I wouldn't trust him with is my wife.

ViperZ · 02-August-02, 10:13 PM

Sure....

Wixx · 03-August-02, 02:20 PM

Would you trust me with your wife?

Jonny English · 03-August-02, 05:40 PM

Yeah, I'd donate - as long as he promised to spent it on alchohol & gambling (and not waste it!).

Btw, what happened to the 'Donate' button on the main PR page? I actually had a few spare spondulicks the other day (not much, but more than PR gets on the average bit of merchandise) so was going to bung PR's way - but couldnae find it

BigAkita · 15-August-02, 11:46 PM

Wixx, no.

TO ALL WHO DID NOT POST ON THIS THREAD AND DID NOT VOTE:

GK has done a wonderful job here at PR and he damn well deserves to be treated to something nice from those who benefit from this site.

We all receive advice, support and information that has saved each and everyone of us money and time.

I may be ****ed financially currently but I can at least spare $5.00 to go to GK to show some appreciation for all his hard work to improve PR.

For those who vote NO have the balls to say why you would not submit $5.00 so GK can take a night off.

Chaszmyr · 16-August-02, 05:56 PM

Lost Monkey, now that PayPal is owned by Ebay it is a multi-billion dollar company. Theres no reason not to trust it.

scapegoat · 16-August-02, 10:11 PM

Just like all the shareholders trusted MCIWorldcom and Enron right, Chaz?

EDIT- oh and by the way 'Taz, i am all for givin GK a night out on the town......give me Ducks Paypal address and id be happy to get the ball rolling.

Fantazmic2 · 16-August-02, 10:19 PM

There's no point if not enough PR Members contribute. Currently only 7 will 7 x $5= $35...not enough for him to go out and enjoy himself unless he want to go to McDonalds (Feeding two) and a $3.00 movie!!!

scapegoat · 16-August-02, 10:25 PM

Hell ill donate more that $5.00! 10, 15 whatever.....comon you hoes!!! we need more that 7 people!!!

Umm Chazz now that its a Multi Billion Dollar company (assuming they reported their earnings correctly) it's more reason NOT to trust it.

scapegoat · 16-August-02, 10:50 PM

i wouldnt buy shares in them(i dont think ebay's public anyway) but i would trust them enough to send 5 dollors

EDIT- BTW chaz, they are they item that are sold over ebay are over a couple billion dollors, but Ebays actually earning so far are only in the neibour hood of 800-900million/year. (RANDOM USELESS FACT FOR THE DAY

)

scapegoat · 16-August-02, 10:56 PM

YES!!!! We are up to 8 now 'Taz, Comon you hoes keep donating...... Dont Make me open this!!!

Chaszmyr · 16-August-02, 11:04 PM

DW, its not a reason not to trust it. They would have to be investigated first, and they arent under investigation, so until they are its safe

scapegoat · 16-August-02, 11:19 PM

Think again Chaz, they have been before....

EBay Under DOJ investigation

And Here

SEC investigates Ebay

SEC investigates Ebay

Whats to say it cant happen again.

EDIT- Again i would still trust them with a simpe 5 or 50 dollor transaction, but i would trust them enough to buy stock!

BigAkita · 17-August-02, 01:00 AM

They are as trustworthy as any other company you do business with online. As long as you deal with them using a credit card, you are pretty safe. The most you will be out is $50. I have passed several thousand dollars through PayPal and have had noe problem. I've followed their recent tribulations closely, but I believe it is in reference to their being too protective with their accounts, not the fact that they are a security risk.

Same with ebay. Again, much money, no problems. If you use your credit card for transactions, they will back you up. Of course that is only if you have a credit card from a good company.

scapegoat · 17-August-02, 01:07 AM

oh i agree with you totally on that BA, ive passed 100's of dollors though ebay and paypal as well. i just wouldnt buy stock in them( or any other technology company at this point), to many dam fluctionation, my portfolio(as small as it is) has taken a big enough hi already

MEANWHILE...... BACK ON TOPIC------Alright 9 volunteers, keep it comin!
