Except for the donation part of the page, I don't see anything else wrong w/ the web-page, but then again, your web-page "could" be a scam and that's why the thread was locked IMO.

OK... i see. For verification, anyone can visit the Aicardi Syndrome Foundation website here to find out that this is a legit deal. You can go to that website and click on "meet some of our girls" and see my daughter there.
On the idea of asking for donations... is that not good only because it could be a scam or because it's just not allowed here???

thanks!

if you have a problem, the best thing to do is pm the mods or post about it in the forum issues category. chances are, this thread will get locked too.

I have been a member here since 2000, but I've generally only been in the tech forrums. I've never really spent much time in the off topic or any place else where something like this might be posted. And as for takeing a chill pill, I'm sorry if I've come across as needing one!!! :) My words do not acuratly represent my mood!!!

I've seen other forum sponsored donations for people. I hope no one is doing favors for anyone.

I am sure it's a real syndrome, but that doesn't mean someone can't fake it. I could start a website saying, I have cancer and make a whole site with picks and everything asking for money. Just because Cancer is real doesn't mean i didn't make it up. I am not claiming you made it up though, i am just explaining that it is probably safer for the admins to lock it just in case, its a shame but there are alot of bad people on the internet.

PM the mods. Some have gotten approval in the past.
But asking for money, fs/ft type things are generaly gonna get banned.
Lastly, please just relax. Mods are just doing their job.
I'm sure they would let your thread go if you took out the donation part. And you'd still be helping because if someone visited your site, and decided to donate, they would.

I read the link, best of luck to you and your daughter.

I think some of the people here that argue all the time should read about some of those kids at that site, and they'll realize that all this stuff we think is important really isn't.

As a father myself I understand and my heart goes out to you and your family. But you have to understand the reasons why it was locked, the fraud is so rampant nowdays.
