Announcing: Weekly Fundraiser Link-a-thons

[soc_puppet]

So, about request-for-donation posts. There are so many of us in need that I don't want to turn anyone away; at the same time, because there are so many of us in need, I worry that this community would become nothing but fundraiser posts (punctuated by Thursday Recs).

To that end, the compromise I'm thinking of is to have a weekly post where community members can link to fundraisers—their own or other peoples'—in the comments. I'm currently leaning towards hosting those on Mondays, because what better time to start than, well, right now? Though Fundraiser Fridays has alliteration going for it, as well as being payday for a lot of people. So, here's a poll for that:

Poll #27185

This poll is anonymous.
Open to: Registered Users, detailed results viewable to: All, participants: 17

What day of the week should donation posts be hosted on?

Sunday

Tuesday

Wednesday
0 (0.0%)

Thursday
0 (0.0%)

Friday
4 (23.5%)

Saturday
1 (5.9%)

I'd personally prefer not Thursday, since that's already recommendations day, but there's really no harm in doubling up if that's how things shake out.


In the mean time, since the day's not decided yet, please feel free to link any donation requests in the comments of this post!

This is admittedly a link to my post, which links to a friend's. Can we keep this member of our wider community housed, folks?

copperbadge does Radio Free Mondays, so you could promote them both at the same time if you choose Monday.
