    You're wanting him to commit suicide. Two wrongs don't make a right. Do you not see the irony here?

    You're the one that made that page.

    Look how you wrote your sentence here:

    What a maggot ,he should do us a favor and kill him self .

    The comma and period have a space in front of them, which is kind of unusual.

    It's written the same way on the page you created:

    I need you now more then ever ,i don't know what to do anymore , all i want is to work and build a small house were i can live my life with my girlfriend and build a small workshop so i can quit this minimum wage job and offer my girlfriend and community a better life .

    The questions I have are why do you call yourself a maggot? Why do you wish a bodily harm upon yourself? But most importantly, why are you using the name of God to manipulate people to give you $$?

    Good catch....I would not have picked up on this. But then again I didn't bother to check it out. I have no problem at all, with the fact that he refers to himself as a maggot.

    I wouldn't have thought twice about that. Insane grammar skills man. I guess his idea of thinking is to pretend to be someone else to create false "buzz" around the subject to trick people into giving him money.

    The sad thing is that if he used the internet properly he could build up skills and earn more than the measly 8k he's after, and then be able to donate his time to the betterment of his community. As for providing for his girlfriend, she's already proven that she doesn't mind if he's penniless so there is no pressure there.

    Wow, great catch! I was strongly considering the fact that he was simply trying to publicize his own fundraising link since this was his first post on DP, but did not see the evidence that you saw. I am not surprised, of course, that he has not raised a single dollar.
