If so, I apologize.

If not, can we consider this one The One?

4. And, may I add... if any of that minority of DUers derides those requesting help
in obtaining a donor star due to financial difficulties--stating that "they can post for free, so why the bitchin?".....

Let it suffice to say that I will come through your "puter" screen and cheerfully pull your tongue out.


That is all... Please resume your regularly scheduled activities. :evilgrin:

5. I did a DU simple search using 'donate a star' and did not find one. What did you find
when you searched?

7. I didn't feel like it.
In fact, I don't even care if there was another one going.

It was a great conversation starter and a request for anyone in need to please post within this thread.

18. I think you should start a new one, but make sure the subject line starts and ends with *****
Which, in my book, makes a thread *****Official*****

:P

ETA: Whoops! Never mind. I see you found the "official" thread already. Hope more star-needers find it too. It sinks pretty fast, alas.

34. Am I able to ask for help w/ a star if my star-niversary date is the 21st of this month?
I was going to ask Skinner if I can donate after the holidays and still have time before DU-3 so can be Grandfathered in.

Thanks in advance for your help! DUers are sweet!
