So now that they've "won", a "high number" of Retake Mass Effect supporters are apparently asking Paypal to cancel their donations to Child's Play. In addition to people who donated to charity, then apparently realised that donating to the charity wouldn't directly get them a new ending ... so wanted their money back.

I'm not posting this to smear Retake Mass Effect. Just because it's shockingly horrible.

This is incredible. What a bunch of idiots. Is their IQ stuck somewhere in the one-digit numbers?

It's non-existant.

Knew this would happen.

They got what they want, now they are backing out.

You proud of yourselves now, people?

This is why I hate humanity. You SUCK.

As much this is very likely to be very true since lot of people are selfish idiots, I still have feeling that this is fake news just to give this movement really bad name.

Humanity just sunk to a whole new level of low, nothing surprising there.

I don't think anyone ever said it was?

The people backing out didn't bother to check that the real cause was Child's Play.

They thought they were paying directly for a new ending and nothing else.

There are already some threads with this. Why another one?

Why would the founder of a charity try to smear a campaign that's raising money for his charity?

Which makes them ignorant AND dumb, I am really sorry, for harsh language, but demanding money BACK from charity is probably the lowest a human can go. And there is NO apology that makes it ok.

Then I withdraw my suspicion.

I'm just having a bad day today, so very cynical.

And now that they know what they are doing, they back out instead of doing the nice thing.

You know if Shepard and the Reaper threat were real, after seeing this, even Shepard would be like "You know, maybe being harvested wouldn't be so bad".

Both of you are wrong, it goes into the negatives. People are getting dumber just by being in the same room.

People that can't figure out the obvious cause to donate to such a fund and thinking there is a limit to what you need to get a new ending just by donating for it should never get the responsibiity to handle money. Evidently, they are unfit.

Gotta love the numbers game. First, members of Retake are mercilessly painted as "a vocal minority" in their views. Then, another vocal minority within the vocal minority are being used to paint the entire thing as a non-altruistic venture- which is *obviously not the case* if people are doing the research. For the people who are demanding their donations back? Yeah, they *should* be ashamed. But so are the people wielding the hater and misinformation brushes... *looks at posters in this topic*... which is apparently most people in here. -_-

Well, not to conspire much, but Penny Arcade called Retake movement whiners and the drive have just been stopped ....so .... the timing is actually quite suspicious

Yes, like this is not the Xnt thread about this already....

As for it being fake, afaik its not. But its a few jerks, while the vast majority still considers their donations done/valid/whatever and would never think to ask for "refund"

But by all means lets smear everyone.

What percentage of the money are we talking about here? 2%? 10%? 50%?
