Yep. We're a bunch of entitled whiners. So entitled that we're willing to donate to charity.


Shh, the haters don't need to know that.

Or it could be a total Jayne moment : "We're just happy to be doin' good works"

But either way, this is definitely a good way to get an issue out there.

My support!

Even if I do think the lot of you are over reacting to the endings... I think I can safely say that I am behind you guys on this one. This is a good cause and I wish you all the best of luck with this.

I donated. I definitely want the endings changed, and I really think this is a great way to show we put our money where our mouths are.

Precisely. While I think it a little unreasonable to ask for an "alternate" ending or the like (a little Powerpoint slideshow would have been fine by me), only good can come from this particular form of protest.

Fantastic! This is the perfect way to put all the negative energy we've been feeling to good use. I'm so impressed to see how well it's doing already!

I just put in twenty dollars from my checking. I really hope that this gets attention, but I also hope that people don't become hateful over it. Though from I've seen I don't think that will be a problem.  Heck even if this doesn't really change anything at least I sent that money to people who need it more than I do.

I think its great people are donating money to child's play. But I can't
seem to grasp how this also coincides with the petition? Care to
explain to an ignorant soul? So far I see it as you want to make it that
"we" are not spoiled nor crazy fanboys but honest good people that just
would like the ending changed. Am I off?

You pretty much have it. It's a great way to help bring attention to the issue, and it really puts a damper on the negative (and mostly baseless) criticisms that call us "whiney", "entitled", and other various dismissive names.

This needs to be forwarded to all the game journalist that called us whiners and immature babies and **** like that. Show them, that we talk with not only our mouths, but our HEARTS.

I'd like to donate, but can someone tell me how I can be certain the money actual goes to Child's Play?

The reciept clearly says that your payment goes directly to Child's Play, not through a third party.

While I do certainly agree I don't think we should do it in an obnoxcious "I told you so" manner.  I don't say that to sound preachy, but because you people are all better than that.  I know so because these donations prove it.
