I dont necessarily think he;s upset that we bailed, but its probably bothering him because he felt he did it to keep cf running for us. Im sure rez didnt plan for all this to happen.

That said, it was unfortunate he didnt even advise us of the change until it was brought out in the open by members. It also bothers me that he sold everything weve ever typed about our personal lives to a company who would love to exploit it to spark controversy and membership.

I didnt donate (I would have, was offline a few weeks and knew nothing about it) so I have no opinion either way. But its unfortunate he didnt aknowledge the act of kindness you guys did in sending them that money.

While my own financial difficulties made it impossible for me to donate, I too feel that it would have been nice for Rez or Nanci to let SOMEONE know they recieved the money. If I understand correctly everyone who donated included their user name which means even if the person who sent the money wasn't available, a bunch of other people were. Just seems a little discourteous to me.

I agree with PC, glad to hear that it was rec'd safely and can be put to use. No recognition needed.

That said, the user name of each donor was listed on the card.

I took a picture of it to post here but I suck at the intarwebs.

Lastly, to clear the air:

I did not get a text from them but that doesn't mean it wasn't sent. Verizon has been less than reliable lately and I wouldn't find it hard to believe that something was lost in transmission.

The PM I rec'd on CF from my source:

Quote:
I just talked to Rez, he said they got it and sent you a text right after they opened the package.

Wanted me to pass along their gratitude to everyone involved!

OMG listen to yourselves! If the only reason you put anything in was just to hear a thank you, don't break your own arm patting yourself on the back.

geez.

I'm glad they received it shmike.

I don't care about a "Thanks" but I'm glad we got confirmation that they received it.

Isn't it kind of appropriate, common courtesy, to say thank you? If someone gave April something, wouldn't you expect her to say thank you, even if the gifts purpose was not to get thanks?

And sorry I couldn't give. No job, separated from my husband, keeping a roof over MY head is my priority. Anyone want to start a fund raiser for me??

That's why I sent the message to Nancy, just wanted to make sure it didn't get picked up by someone passing by. And shmike said they did send him a text, they didn't have any way of knowing it wasn't received.

well, thats assuming "you" gave april something, in this case it's kinda like papa giving april a gift, her not saying "thank you" and you calling her out on it.........

the one's that "should" be offended are the gift givers, IMO it's better to give and know i gave and thats all that matters.

best o luck in your family matters.
