[QUOTE=don818;40623158]Wow looks like the worst of FPs worst is gonna show up. Holy shit I hate this forum.[/QUOTE]
i don't think it's fair to judge the entire forum based on one or two users.

[QUOTE=rampageturke 2;40623169]why did they pull her funding? this is the first time i've heard about this[/QUOTE]
they thought there was "suspicious activity"
[QUOTE=rampageturke 2;40623169]why did they pull her funding? this is the first time i've heard about this[/QUOTE]
because 'it was fraud-like'
[QUOTE=krail9;40623154]hmmm, I don't know, I don't want to be heartless or anything but it all seems a bit suspicious to me
that said there isn't much information now that the twitch channel and the indiegogo campaign are down[/QUOTE]
I, too, wish to see more information before passing judgement. Not that it matters, deserved or not Indiegogo is going to be fucked from this point forward.
This makes me sad. Really sad.
Is there confirmation that she died or any info about what's happening now? What happened in the video? At the moment I can't find any published news about this and the Twitch channel has been taken down.
[QUOTE=mr kjerr;40622838]suicide is a selfish act, and she publicized the fuck out of it. congrats, she gets what she wants. people are talking about her suicide, and she will be forever cemented as the "person who proved what a terrible site indiegogo is, oh the humanity!"
just kidding, everybody will forget[/QUOTE]

holy shit, bryant, you are a real fucking hypocrite. don't respond to me or ask me or to point out why because you know very well what the fuck i'm talking about

I'm waiting for police reports to surface.
[QUOTE=RenegadeCop;40623190]My house was burnt to the ground once. Insurance said "Yeah, sorry about that." and canceled us.[/QUOTE]
That shouldn't be legal. The fact that you give them money to cover that and then they say "no" and run off with everything you've payed them is almost literally theft.
[QUOTE=SGTNAPALM;40623197]I'm waiting for police reports to surface.[/QUOTE]
The current best info that might be able to surface would be a reupload of the Twitch video to a site like LiveLeak.

I've been here long enough to know how many, and to what degree of horror the user base is.

Seriously, read pretty much any other thread remotely mentioning trans people in any capacity.

so i guess this means everyone is a terrible person then
How do we know that she has gone through with it successfully?
So let's see here, who was terrible in this situation?
The family for not helping her, Indigogo for cutting funds that could have saved her life, Reddit for being assholes like usual and the US healthcare system for sucking balls.
[QUOTE=Mr._N;40623230]How do we know that she has gone through with it successfully?[/QUOTE]
we don't. i'd say really only the people who were on the stream, or live with her [if anyone] would know right now

the system has truly fucked up here.
[QUOTE=mr kjerr;40623063]suck it up, take it like a man. if you're a good christian man, know that god will take care of you to and after the end, and if you aren't, know that you died with dignity and honor instead of taking the "cowards way out"[/QUOTE]
Its clear that you have never been in mental anguish in your life, and thus should not comment on matters you know very [I]very[/I] little about.
Good god.
They pull funding that was supposed to save someone's life just because "Suspicious Activity", and everyone calls her out aggressively on scamming, and they dont even accept the fact that its true?
Ill be right back after I deal with my monumental rage, this just blows it, call me out on anger issues, but whoever would be such a fucking dickhead to let someone die just because of obviously false claims of "Scamming" is just asking to have the plugs pulled on their lives for being such assholes.
EDIT: I want to see the Indiegogo guy who had made the decision tried for murder, as far as I know everything was legitimate and could not even remotely be suspicous, someone wanted to be the biggest asshole in the world.

on the contrary, he has experienced such mental anguish. i won't explain since that would be going into personal details of his life (which is too far, despite whatever stupid shit he said).
he is just a fucking hypocrite, and he's (probably) not trolling. don't respond to him.

As much as I say I don't sympathize with quitters[/QUOTE]
im sorry? what was she quitting from? a slow painful death? whats the point in going through that?
It is a sad thing what happened, but it's kind of fucked up that she would stream her suicide. I hate the fact she mentions her friends and basically says "not even you could save me"
Why are people blaming Indiegogo? They suspected fraud, people got their money back. If anyone is to blame, her family is suspect number one.
I'm skeptical until an official report or some new information comes out, but this is sad if it's true.
This is depressing, having to put all her sympathy to the campaign and yet her family deceived her for all she has done.

she wanted her friends to not blame themselves

Unless I'm missing information, it doesn't seem like Indiegogo conducted a thorough enough investigation into the situation before pulling her funding. I certainly can't blame them for being skeptical; you don't want to be a victim of fraud after all, but a person's life is an extremely serious issue and one that's deserving of the most critical of investigations.

Facepunch claims to be progressive and open minded, but once transgenderism is related, the tables turn, and we have people left and right jumping in yelling out rubbish claims about transgender people and the problem at hand, saying things that aren't even true, getting their information off of some sketchy site made in the late 90s [or something like that.]
People are assholes, they fail to see the severity of the issue, and just rail on them, over and over, thinking they're right and just about it.
It depresses me, a lot, and it hurts me, because I'm transgendered, and people laugh at me and make fun of me, believing to be above me.
its like im really in a time loop whrer you stupid fucks get into the same timeless "arguments" OVER AND OVER
