Begging is >>>/unkind/ . Begone.

I'm sorry OP, but we aren't here to give money to strangers over the internet. Perhaps if you gave more details, somebody could help another way.

It's hardly anymore "unkind" than any other request for help. It is definitely unkind to shun OP, and tell him to fuck off though.

These kinds of posts won't be banned, but I might make a containment thread for them. It would be similar to the advertisement thread that we have right now or I could just make the ad general into an ad/begging general since nobody is shilling in it these days.

Enabling is /unkind/. Begone.

That's funny because I would love to enable others to ask for help on a board about helping others.

I'd reccommend donating plasma. That should net you from $60-100 depending on where you are, and you may be able to do it a couple times before the month's up.

I think that it's better to just suggest to op how he could make money.

anyway, if you could elaborate on your situation, I'm sure somebody would be glad to help you find a way to solve your money problems short of lending you money.

Enabling another person's addiction, poor mental health, immaturity, irresponsibility, or under-achievement is not being kind, it's codependency.

What a remarkable post. If only it was relevant. The point that people are trying get across is that asking for help on the help board should be encouraged.

I wonder whether "tough love" is /kind/…

I'm honestly not sure.

However, I believe a donation to someone in need definitely represents the spirit of /kind/.

I think of this board and any other board as a school of thought.

Maybe your statements would be more suited for some sort of motivational board?

The problem is there's no way to distinguish "I have to choose between heating my home during the winter next month, or having enough food to last me to the end of next month" and "I'm a greedy pile of human excrement so I will spin a heart-tugging yarn to get you useful idiots all teary-eyed and whipping out your wallets".

Not wanting to be taken advantage of, most folks understandably assume the latter in all forms of e-begging.

This is a major reason people turn >>>/unkind/ : the fear of their genuine desire to be kind being taken advantage of by trickster assholes. And so the numbing to others' suffering goes on in the name of not being made a monkey of.

The point he was trying to make was that anon is the dark rain clouds hanging over a happy scene.

Are you trying frame the discourse to make anons feel almost obliged to pay you? There's one dirty guy at the mall nearby my place who sometimes comes and begs for money. I started talking with him for a longer while and I realized he's actually very clear thinker and probably knowledgeable in rhetoric and psychology. I had similar experiences at other times. They must beg for sport or to prove something to themselves, because with this kind of insight on maliciously manipulating human thought, they could be CEOs or politicians just fine

That's quite the assumption you've made there. I don't think there's any indication that the friend you're replying to is the OP.
