I apologize to those involved in what was a huge error in judgment on my part. I took a chance in allowing Vig to post his story based on the proof his wife had cancer and it turns out I was wrong to do so.

The thing that is truly saddening is that now BBV will no longer be a reliable place for people to come and collect money for their relatives/loved ones in need....

greenstein-style donation efforts are always going to be welcomed

[/ QUOTE ]

You mean mass-movements to donate small amounts of money to well-established charities constitutes a positive idea whereas directing funds towards random participants on anonymous gambling-related internet message boards who are claiming that their significant others have cancer is just retarded and outrageous?

[/ QUOTE ]

yes

did you miss the part where I admitted I made a mistake or are you just an ass?

[/ QUOTE ]

Just an ass. I think it's worth harping on the foolishness of your mistake, since it cost normal, unsuspecting 2+2ers money. I don't really care about forum politics, and I don't have any opinion on you aside from this, but it's not like apologizing gets you off the hook instantly. How much money was "donated" anyway?

[/ QUOTE ]

Actually, all the facts we were told are still assumed to be correct.

The one thing Gildwulf didn't tell us is that the guy wasn't going to pay for cancer treatments for his girlfriend with the money, but was instead going to urinate it across the internet at huge stakes poker games.

Gildwulf has apologised several times for this. He made a judgement call and got it wrong, it happens.
