Forum Fund or Other?

Hello Hogs...Several things came to mind last night when a fellow Hog said they had no money to play in a pen game. The thoughts have been growing and evolving since then. Please let me know what you guys/gals think.

In order for a clearly dedicated member to partake in any of the pen, league, or otherwise games the Hogs have to offer, one needs money. Maybe, just maybe, there are some altenatives.

1. Hogs will have the ability to donate into a "Help a Hog" fund which could enable one to participate once in a while to give them a chance to win money. It does NOT have to be manditory nor does it have to be a minimum denomination. Heck, 3 to 5 cents might be the only thing standing in the way of a good Hog not being able to enter a game. So again, no minumum denomination would be required, nor do you have to feel obligated to donate at all. It is your money, you've earned it, do with it what you please.

2. In order to obtain funds, this will be by request of a Hog trying to help another Hog out. One CANNOT request for themselves. That is for several reasons need not mentioning.

3. A request can only be made for the same individual maybe once or twice a month to avoid parasitic situations.

4. IF...and I say IF the individual manages to place and obtain actual funds, then they must not only give back the amount what was so freely and generously given to them, but consider donating double or more, especially if it is a BIG take. Keep that in mind because the individual would have otherwise not been there if it wasn't for the "Help a Hog" fund in the first place.

It is one way for that individual to perhaps do better in a game knowing its for a good cause. They were helped and now they have the opportunity to help someone else.

Again, it is no big deal whether someone donates or not...It will be completely confidential.

Now the only thing that I haven't figured out yet is where to keep the account. Maybe a "Hog" account can be generatred in Rio where ONLY the ADMINS, upon a fellow hog requesting for funds be added to an account. I say ADMIN(S) because just one person might not be avail. at the time to provide the funds.

Or, a fund of some sort can be generated into a forum account.

So what do ya's think? Just wanted to get this out there to be considered.

I think its a very thoughtful idea and I would be game just not too sure how that could be worked out
