you didnt answer the questions, and before you try changing anything there, I will quote your reply
.pyramid scheme? no. thats when there is a ladder of people working under another under another where the person at the top makes most the profit, and the people on the bottom STAY at bottom.
this is essentialy...a fursuit charrity pool.
and you dont know these people cause they are users from www.thefurryforum.com (http://www.thefurryforum.com) in the fursuiting section..where i actualy STARTED this group at origionaly. but since its starting to become a larger group i decided to take it over here as well and expand it. its also existing on facebook to.
you are free to join that forum too. get to know them if it makes you feel better.
we even have a number of fursuit makers that are joined in, that will make suits at special discounts specialy FOR this group.
as to answer the erlier questions. like, where this money goes.

its kept in a paypal account. i monitor its funds. i tried to have the moderator of thefurryforum manage it, but she already had a paypal account. so i was elected by numerous users to run it myself (as this whole group is essentialy started/managed and ran by me as well)
for paying for the suit. there is a number of suiters IN this group that would take a third party payment. but in the event the person wants there suit from a outside suit maker, there would be a conversation with the suiter as to the special situation. we would try our best to make this arrangement but for the safety of the donators money i couldnt just send the collected funds to the person were saving for. i dont want anyone getting conned, less we scare away members. this really is a great idea that in some ways relys on people to trust it. but i want to make as little opportunity for mistakes in this as possible. i want to help put fur outside like they feel it on the inside.
as for the donations. they go to the paypal account (Paypal link removed by Staff.)
and i update the pool information every donation. i keep a digital and handwritten ledger of who has donated and how much.
as for the donation system. everyone puts in a little. even the person we are questing for. the idea is that a few dollars here, a few dollars there..adds up fast when in vast numbers.

I would like to hear from your fursuit making members and what they would be willing to accept.
http://forums.furaffinity.net/threads/95054-EVERYONE-Gets-a-Fursuit!
YOU PUT CAFFEINATED ON YOUR LIST. THIS IS AN OBVIOUS MISMATCH OF INFO. THEY HAVE POSTED AS IF THEY ARE RUNNING THIS, AND YOU BOTH HAVE DIFFERING LISTS. NOT ONLY THAT, BUT WHY WAS AN IMMEDIATE EXCEPTION MADE FOR CAFFEINATED WHO'S ESTIMATED COST IS OVER 1500??
It has been dismissed as a pyramid scheme on 2 other sites. I am asking people do not join this project. they refuse to answer questions properly and are being dodgier than an organ dealer.
If you're going to ask questions about the project, please be polite about it. There's no need to yell.
Firstly, You cannot yell online. I was strongly emphasizing points. Emphasis on points that each member of this group should find highly outrageous. If I wanted to yell for the sake of making you aggravated, I could. Now, why didnt you say anything about
I will ask in a polite manner, then.
1. How is this any better than paying for it yourself? One of your leaders say it is for donating, the other says it is for prophet. Which is it?
2. How does this not resemble a pyramid scheme?
3. Why was caffeinated instantly approved for something over 1500 dollars
4. Why is it so unorganized?
5. What binds someone to stay?
6. Where are these fursuit makers you mentioned?
7. How do you get more out than you put in?
8. Is anyone insured for major losses?
9. Why should anyone else get to go first? That makes me trust you guys even less.
10. Why shouldn't a third party hold the funds?
11. If I wanted to donate, I would give to a just cause. There are bigger issues than people without fursuits. Could we not be infatuated.
Chibi, why wouldnt you answer the questions here? Do you have something to hide? http://forums.furtopia.org/index.php?topic=42970.0 (http://forums.furtopia.org/index.php?topic=42970.0)
