Did I do a wrong thing by donating?

I see the crowd funding thread has been deleted. Message from MNHQ re not allowing campaigns not from registered charities etc.

Have I been had? Now panicking about doxxing etc. I just wanted to help. I'm not that savvy really Blush

I mentioned to Nic that while people can find the crowdfunder by googling crowdfunder hands off my rights, it could be useful to have a link from the fair play for women homepage too so I think they're going to have a look at that.

Hello.

Um... I have £20 that I’d like to donate to a good cause. Any suggestions?

Btw thanks Nic & all the women out campaigning, you are all incredible Flowers

Very wise decision to ban.

BewitchedBotheredandBewildered · 18/09/2018 10:17

I remember the thread that prompted the banning of Crowdfunding.

It was very upsetting for a lot of people.

I wasn't just being obtuse as a reason to bump the thread - I genuinely wasn't finding the page but it seems the search results on my phone were different. On a pc googling "Hands off my rights crowdfunder" gave the right page as the 4th result but that page is not in the results doing the same search on my phone. When I reformatted Hands off my rights as a hash tag (spaces between words removed, # at the front) along with the word crowdfunder - then my phone finally gave me the page.

Do you think people are donating by PayPal to this excellent cause?

TeenTimesTwo · 18/09/2018 08:40

It's over £5000 now.

And is this a specific crowdfunder page on the fair play for women website (I can only find a generic "donate" page without specific targets on it) or a specific "Hands off my Rights" page on a crowdfunder platform (I can only find much older pages from earlier in the campaign)

EmpressAdultHumanFemale · 18/09/2018 07:22

Their specific crowdfunder right now is called Hands off my Rights.

I'm confused. I Googled fair play for women and found their website but didn't see anything about a specific crowd funding project - just normal running cost donation options. Is there an additional keyword anyone could recommend or would that be against mn rules?

No problem, funny things happen sometimes!

UnderHerEye · 17/09/2018 22:42

UnderHerEye · 17/09/2018 22:40

Blessed be the fruit loops!

UnderHerEye · 17/09/2018 22:08

Oh sorry, wrong thread!

Silly me!

UnderHerEye · 17/09/2018 22:07

I can’t wait for next season of handmaids tale, I think we are going to see the start of the revolution!

It's the security thing for me too. I don't like getting my bank card out on the tube but using PayPal in public is no problem.

BeyondAnOmnishambles · 17/09/2018 21:54

I love PayPal. Remembering those three little numbers on the back of my bank card is just too much hard work...

pombear · 17/09/2018 21:54

Sorry, wrong thread. (Wipes brush)

pombear · 17/09/2018 21:53

No, you're right, if one more person asks me whether they should paint their hallway 'elephant's fawn breath grey' I'm off to buy a big pot of lime green paint and visit everyone with the top off Smile

SciFiFan2015 · 17/09/2018 21:49

So - what's the news then about [insert name of soap character]?

Oops

wrong thread

Sorry

Off to check my PayPal account...

GladAllOver · 17/09/2018 21:47

But I expect someone will be along soon to explain

Onlyinanemergency · 17/09/2018 21:43
