There no reason plinkey couldn't have just made a spreadsheet showing disbursements. That's a completely reasonable request and it would take like 10 minutes and even if he was stealing from it he could have easily faked it. Doesn't make sense

yes, i too fully believe that people would look over any spreadsheet provided and go "hmm, yes, all of this looks above board" instead of going "how do we know that these are actual requests and not just withdrawals for casino chips hMMmmMMmM post the ACTUAL spreadsheet you scammy scammer"

the correct move was to have someone not dumb and lazy set up the fund in the first place. the dipshit mods of eld failed at that, so now we're here relying on someone who has just been told by this community to gently caress off to give back the money the community gave him, and actual people who need help are going to get screwed because of the perfect storm of bad faith questions and a dipshit who couldn't find a copy of openoffice excel.

I'm just glad we aren't ruled by someone who only posts in the middle of the night, randomly showing up to make hugely destructive arbitrary decisions for communities he doesn't understand or like and that no one in that community asked for in spite of protestation from that community and evidence that things are working even if it isn't up to his standards that given day.

That sounds like it would be an unpleasant thing. To have.

the usual suspects found a weak link in something and decided to destroy it
they are that arbitrary, they are that capricious

and the concept that you should in fact be a part of a community before you get to arbitrarily dismantle its support structures seems an affront to free speech for whatever reason so our our wise overlord got cajoled into doing what they want in the same way they always are

Yeah, i think the concern troll brigade would still run their dumb fuckin mouths but jeffery seems like he keeps his word so if plinkey hadn't had a protracted baby fit his fund would probably still be functional while the other properly constructed fund was getting off the ground
The mods shouldn't have let either thread turn into slapfight idiot zones, which probably contributed to plinkey's recalcitrance, but the mods suck and are stupid.

so the neo goon fund managed to get off the ground? cool that they were able to set that up even if it was purely to spite their posting enemies. maybe it'll even help a few people as a side benefit.

I think it's nice that the posters who spend all their time poo poo-talking other goons and posting QCS threads about how much they hate CSPAM found the genuine concern in their hearts to save potentially evicted goons from getting money that wasn't 100% vetted by someone who ostensibly is in a computer science field
