Before Doc arrives and furiously points his finger at OOPE, I'm going to post this here first, in the hope that a few people read it and decide to vote before it's moved to die an unread death out of GD.
While you may sit on any side of the fence in relation to in game issues, please take a couple of minutes to read the linked blog post and help a fellow player out with just a few minutes of your time:

While I strongly +1 this initiative for fellow capsuleer in need I find it slightly shameful that people with such diseases are pushed toward popularity contest for something like that van. Geezus, it is a van with a wheelchair ramp/lift not a frakking spaceship, how much it would take out of "really important matters" budget to just provide one of them to everybody who needs it?

As somebody who`s is very familiar with such as in the Wifey being a Tetraplegic from an RTA incident and the cost`s involved in acquiring needed and essential equipment just for a person to be able to function in a positive way within a family environment I fully understand and respect your infinitive.
Particularly in the UK, whenever that lil ole blue disabled badge is mentioned the cost just multiply and multiply, to give an example of this in relation to the OP..We recently purchased another Chrysler Voyager (our 3rd since '96) just for getting Wifey out n abouts, Sub frame of this particular model lends itself very well for such conversions but the costs involved are just so prohibitive that the conversion/adaption of the vehicle to the clients needs are some 45-55% of the total costs.
Will vote and so will a few peeps that I will link this thread too. |

Playing the same game as I do does not make him any more qualified than any of the other contestants to get a vote from me. None of the contestants are any more qualified than the others to get my vote, so why should I pick him over all the others? Because Goonswarm likes him? Unfortunately for him, I don't like Goonswarm. |

Tried to vote to support this, but nothing seems to work when I try to link from the Meanie Bumping page?
If someone would post a link to the voting page, I will be happy to vote early and vote often.

Hmm, I find the whole Meanie Bumping thing really tedious, but I do separate in game stuff from real life.

That's not the point of the statement. You're taking what I'm saying out of context and using far too general an example. Dig a little deeper, and you'll see what I mean.
When I say internet personas, I'm not talking about something like pretending you're a daring ship captain, rescuing pilots stranded in lowsec and other such things. I'm not talking about pretending you're a lone wolf wizard, throwing fireballs at skeleton hordes. Hell, even the whole mining permit/CODE thing is okay with me. I'm talking about attitudes such as the following:
"oh, it's all online, I'll just be a **** and troll forums/blow up empty freighters in Jita all day because it's not really me doing it. It's my avatar, so by all means help me when I ask for it because all of a sudden it's not my avatar anymore, and I didn't actually do all of these things to people who didn't deserve it" (classic Goonswarm)
When you do things like this, it shows more of your actual personality than you might think. If someone does something like this, online or offline, then there's a 100% guarantee that that someone is the type of person who would do something like this. Bar none. Normal people with normal minds who have morals tend to feel guilty after breaking said morals in any type of environment, roleplaying or not.
When I play RPG's, I have a tough time doing cruel things even to NPCs, because it's something I wouldn't do to real people. It's sort of like that. Sort of.
Mind you, I like to troll forums myself, but I ask for nothing. And for the record, I have never lost a ship to Goonswarm, so I hold no vindictive feelings toward them. |

I can honestly say I have never heard anyone say that apart from people who think that RPing a bad guy means you have to be "unacceptable" in real life some how

Nobody can question your decision to wax philosophical about the virtues of clicking buttons for one person over another every 24 hours, instead of actually helping someone in need, certainly not yourself as you look back on your life and your actions as you ready yourself to face the blackness of death and the ever-growing fear of impending Divine Judgement.
I respect the straight talk buddy but in the time it took to type out this post I paused and voted for Avalloc again, so that's about the weight of your case for not doing this minor act of altruism. It's less, actually, this post took a few minutes. Your effort would have been about half a minute of typing and clicking. |

Seems like a funny thing to do, but honestly I wouldn't say stuff like this when trying to qualify for a company sponsored gift. It's better to present the best case for yourself without trying to be a smartass or cheeky about it.
Just my opinion.
