It was a yes or no question, any reply besides a "yes" isn't negative. Suggesting a GoFundMe be refunded isn't rude, bringing up your disability like he was using it against you is downright bizarre.

it is rude when there's a fun positive thread and a debbie downer comes in with negative troll comments directed at me for no reason.

Just don't see "no" and a suggestion to return the money as negative or trolling. *shrugs*

i don't know it's hilarious or lame that someone felt the need to come into a thread where people are having fun, just to try and bring us down. What's the point of that?

Flames Gimp is a bad actor.

Also, sorry for your situation. That's rough.

The poster didn't seem interested in donating which is fine but why say give the money back? You liked the post saying give the money back which is weird. Did you donate? Cause there is no point in donating if you want your money back a few days later.

People seem genuinely interested in helping FG do something fun here why not just let it be.

if he didn't post "no" to doing the campaign earlier, i would agree.

on topic: i got a pm from the friend of a wrap shop, he said he would try and get help so i'm waiting for reply.

You guys have some scaled down design ideas? just in case? we need try and make the limited space stand out

I wasn't telling him what to do. I was offering a solution because it sounded like things got messed up. Sheesh, Jiggy.

The pictured ideas with the Flames goal horn would be amazing. The light, too, but not sure if that would be legal.

This was started so late, with a target that was obviously so low, that this was the inevitable conclusion.

You're going to get it designed, paid for, and applied and we're already two games in? We'll be out by the time you get this done.

You should refund everyone and try again next year with a timeline that's actually possible.

your assuming the flames aren't going on a run, it's only been 2 games of the 1st round, the goal was just reached tuesday evening AND the $ hasn't even been deposited yet.

some of the photoshop pros give me an idea? can probably do a 3'x3' image on the hood, the back and one on each side. maybe a stanley cup and go flames go on the sides, flaming c on the hood and chucky friendship tour '22 on back?

Hey man, im totally supportive of the whole idea to get your van pimped out but I also didn't think he was trolling you. That's my 2 cents in this. Either way if you decide to do a few decals instead of a full wrap I think that's awesome but I really didn't think he was being negative. That's just my thoughts.

Feel like the most practical option would be some big GO FLAMES GO down each side and a big flaming C on the Front and/or back.

If you stick to a vinyl cutout in solid colors (ie the above in one solid color) it would be much quicker AND cheaper given any company with sheet vinyl and a cutter could do it quite quickly if you provided the vector file. Infinitely easier and cheaper than a wrap or something that needs to be custom color printed (rather than just vinyl cut). Heck you could probably have it done and installed before game 5.
