I’ve seen this done a few times and it has always worried me. Just because a personal plea is posted doesn’t mean a person is who they pretend to be. Paranoia can be healthy. ;-)

It's just not a good policy.

It puts everyone involved in awkward, uncomfortable positions.

Prayer requests and praying is what we do here, gladly, sincerely, faithfully and if possible on bended knees.

BTW, I'm sure this includes the use of FR mail, too.

You should have added at the end,
"But wait, order now and receive two memberships for the same price!!"

Just a suggestion :)

I agree with this policy 100%. Allowing 3rd party fundraising on a site you manage is nothing but liability and trouble.

Don't ask me how I know.

Are you including solicitations for documented conservative candidates (Matt Bevin comes to mind)?

I agree and volunteer to have everyone send me their money and I will re-distribute it as I see fit!

I’m not registered as a PAC and so cannot solicit for funds for candidates. I try to avoid that, though I have posted info (not solicitations) about known conservative PACs before.

I liked it better when they sent those offers by mail back in the day. At least my daughter got to add some Nigerian postage stamps to her collection album.

Have seen it done via FReepmail. I too rolled my eyes. Will say one more thing, then am going to leave for this day. Okay, I understand all the applause (smile) at my leaving for the day. This is a great policy Jim has put in place. Thank You, once more, Jim. Jim, your care of this site is beyond what other business would do and each here could cite many examples of other businesses not taking the time to warn those that frequent their business or website. Much success to you and yours Jim. Prayers for much success.

Too bad you’re leaving for the day. Have a good “rest of the day”. :-)
