Suppose I need Lasik surgery and see from a long distance. Assuming my eyes are very bad, and I need people to pay for my surgery, 3k.
What do I need to show if I open the donation thread here? Do I need to provide eye problems documents from birth?
I see that the donation thread of Yahoo was taken down. Is it because he failed to provide these documents for Moderators when  they ask?
Happy to receive more information regarding the cause of the closure.

Did mod was pming him  to send evidence of food expenses/Hospital bills like  quote And he didn't send anything?
Is this why closure happened?


Quote:

He does not share the complete reason, only that they asked him to remove it. It was active for veryyy  a long time until yesterday.
This why I ask what exact cause about what happened.
If the user needs treatment like this, he should  be able to post and ask for donations.
I completely against closure if he he provides the documents.
Therefore, I ask if the closure. Is it lack of evidence?




If I need some of these treatment it will be cool if I will be able to ask donation here:




 Do I  need to provide supporting documents and it will  be ok then?

I think it should be fine if provides enough evidence. Maybe mod was pming him and didn´t provide that?
Asking for mod answers. If mods are kind enough for the situation of the man they should allow it.
Any other answer that not coming from mod is not helpful for me.

I don't think so, it won't change the policy on raising donation for yourself.

In some cases, I also don't really understand the exact rules as long as donation threads are freely published on several boards, for example raising donations to help other members, someone outside the forum, or an invitation to help disaster victims.

Well I may not want to go into details of this your topic but, all I since is begging.
You can't wake-up a day crying out loudly for help or donations being a newbie in the forum without being a reputable member or sole contributor to the forum and before such could be possible there must be at least another user from same locality with you to attest to your claims of being a patient or victims of what you are presenting to people. Unlike Yahoo, there were few people who knew about his illness which they also replied and attested to it.

I think yahoo62278 deserves the necessary help he/she needs to survive the health problems as long as its true. He is a longtime member who has supported this forum in his own way.
The money involved isn't a small one. Extraordinary claim requires extraordinary proof  and once enough proofs are provided the forum must rally around one of its own to help him/her survive. Life is worth more than the amount he/she is asking for. He could also be helped to get the desired treated/cured at the fraction of the cost or free of charge. Nothing is impossible
It will be really sad to see another important member vanish just like that.



In regards to begging accusation, why would you call someone who really needs help a begger? What? Is something wrong with you? That's childish and should never be used for people who really needs help from us. And don't ever call people who aren't really begging beggars: Here is a Wikipedia definition of begging:

Begging (also panhandling) is the practice of imploring others to grant a favor, often a gift of money, with little or no expectation of reciprocation. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Begging



May GOD help yahoo62278 who has been kind to many of us in the past.

The thread has some harsh words... I hope I survive. My mom died when I was 17. I need a heart transplant (cost 1m+).
As observers here, they feel empathy and want to help him and me too, but he needs to back it up with documents.
This is why I ask if the reason for the closure is  documents
People here are irrational to think that vouch is enough.
But if he is in a lifetime-threatening situation and he needs a heart transplant or he cannot work, And need food delivered to him to the hospital.  it may be worth keeping the thread open and helping him achieve his goals.
And get him money for  heart transparent in the future if he ever needs it.


Finally, someone rational. If it's true.
I am still surprised by how rep here convey so much trust.

People here are so irrational they trust reputation so much.
If I have hospital paper for eye issues, it will be much more trusty than these  100  vouches he has. (with all due respect)
You can call and verify with the hospital.
And also it will increase the number of donations in the thread if real mod will vouch for him after seeing such papers.
I advise on how to improve the overall experience in the forum, and it applies to everyone, not just the yahoo guy.

OP why don't you use your main account, instead of creating new one just to ask a question about this?  

So now we are going to call any topic that has donation address a begging?!
I didn't see Yahoo beg at all in this thread, I even think he added donation addresses later when people started asking about that, he just said that everyone can find address in his profile (archive can confirm this).
This was certainly not the only thread that collected donations, I can clearly remember one topic from Bruno AKA Phinnaeus Gage and his medical condition, we all know outcome of that.
I can also find several donations campaigns for disasters and health issues, you can't call all donations begging, even Bitcointalk forum had donation address for years.

Yeah I think it's him.
He tried to mask his usual writing style, but it's not working very well.

do mods have to wait for a report before doing anything?

There were two other staff members who replied in that thread, why didn't they stop it

I don't like begging but have to ask

I don´t understand what you are saying here.
If you read clearly I actually try to help Yahoo to get his thread back.



I support to help  him and re-open it.
