Got the TOS policy the first couple of times you posted it. As is the usual case speaking (writing) it louder and more often doesn't make it right or better understood.
A poster comes on who most of us know by name, reputation, and deed. He shares an avenue of support for the very reason we come here in the first place. He is subsequently censored and we are given the TOS policy on donations and fundraising.
What is the difference between him asking us for money to preserve mining and you asking us through your advertisers to spend money on mining equipment and such. I see and make no distinction, other then one gives you money for the use of your platform. That being said, how much would it cost to run a collective fundraising advertisement for Brandon Rhinehart, PLP, WMA, and DRA?
I feel like this is one of the most obvious and useful ways to spread such information........really posting a thread with info on how to donate to a worthy cause and a link is no different than saying hey P.M. me...and I will tell you send me money I would trust the former before the latter. I would think in a situation such as this the mods would have a discussion and allow/create the proper venue for such a post as it effects the rights of every posting member. I understand there are rules, however the ownership and moderation division of this web- forum are letting the membership down by not being a little flexible on the subject. And the fact that moderators are creating a roundabout such as saying Brandon should just ask P.M.'s seems downright silly. Glad this is a free forum. If your not part of the solution you are part of the problem.
