Not pointing any fingers, but I’ve been told I’m ‘begging’ by sharing a fundraising page, asking for help.

Is there somewhere appropriate for such a post?

I’ve searched high and low, eventually opting for communities where it (to me) made sense to post.

    Lmao was just posting how you shouldn’t bother with the little ex-reddit ragenerds telling you you’re begging simply for posting in a sub called “ask a question”.

    But then you’re just as bad as they are putting Reddit over his life. We call your kind “choosy beggars”. Might want to consider giving him to someone who can actually care for him (and is willing to sacrifice hopping onto a website with a throwaway to save his life)…

      Ok let me clarify:

      I replied to a post about Nazis with something very anti-Nazi (you know, because nazis = bad, right?).

      I was suspended for that reply, and I circumvented the suspension by using another account, resulting in permanent suspension/ban. It was a long time ago and I would definitely do things differently now.

      Of course I’m not suggesting my opinion on reddit is more important than my boy, I just don’t have the means to post there, and I’m certainly not about to figure out how to get a new account set up without getting stung for more circumvention.

        Fuck reddit and all, but just trying to throw ideas out there for the sake of the cat. You could use a VPN to access reddit.

          Appreciate you replying.

          I have actually tried this in the past. It’s not that simple. Reddit uses a combination of IP, MAC, device, as well as other data to know who you are.

          I got someone else to post there for me, and it was removed because they didn’t have enough karma.

          Its fine. We’ve managed to raised £2,125 so far and we still have 24-36 hours to keep going.

          We’ve got good momentum and people are good. I believe.
