Well, the board has been around for over a decade and hasn’t snowballed into a vehicle for begging yet, so I don’t think it’s that huge a deal. And we talk about issues like cancer and suchlike, so is it reeeeeallly such a stretch to allow occasional fundraiser threads?

Also, the thread you linked to was posted by a doper who joined in 2003 and is looking for sponsorship for something he’s going to be doing for the charity, so it’d probably meet your criteria for inclusion anyway.
