Saintevil: lol, I see. You forgot to post which one of the choices you picked in the poll and the reason(s). :P :)
Vash:
Am sorry does anybody remember the good old days?
Where we didnt have bittorent. People had fservers. It was really rare to have xdcc bots.
We didnt need money then why do we need it now?
So bittorent is out now. Any average person can help seed that.
Paying groups for there xdcc bots is a crime.
I will wait the time to get it off bittorrent then.
The only thing I can see people give money towards is rare dvds that we can make raws from.
Other then that its a slap in the face to the true fansubbers out there.

I think donating is okay as long as there is FULL DISCLOSURE as to how the money is used and ALL DONATIONS are publicly listed. Donations should be used ONLY to pay for hosting services and R2 DVDs.
Peace,

Well, personally I think it's stupid to donate to fansub groups, but if that's what people want to do, let them... It's not my money.
I've never really liked statements like what "fansubs are supposed to be" and the like... It's really up to the individual fansubber and fansub group and, in this case, the individual fan. If I don't agree with it, all I can do is provide an alternative example.

Of course. The people who donate can do as they please. I won't tell them how to spend their money. I may think it's stupid but they may think it's good/cool. Everyone is entitled to their own opinions. :)

Hmm....maybe my statement came across wrong. I didn't use the "fansubs are supposed to be" part to make it sound like a set in stone rule or anything. I was just merely trying to show my firm stance on the matter. I will do some more editing to fix my poor wording and etc. :-X
