    We will have to agree to disagree there, I personally love using original hardware for games and love the old school feel, part of the fun to me... but I know not everyone feels that way and that's ok

    My oldest WoW friend called me balls instead of ballistic like 10 years ago. It stuck. I like it.

    SEO is a bad word for what I'm looking to do, and I don't want PTC or anything like that. I pay wix a bare minimum fee for bandwidth. We aren't a major group, at all. Got a whole 352 likes on FB, after all, haha. More like contact collecting, I suppose.

    I'm thinking of doing the hits in three sections to offer a qual. I'm looking to collecting stories to publish in a book where proceeds go to non-profit orgs. Depending on feedback, I may offer royalties. I am still figuring that out. I plan on doing a "Have you been affected by suicide" baseline; qual off that. "Type a few sentences about your suicide experiences..." pay a few bucks for that and qual for quality; and then offer $10? for two-three paragraphs. I am not sure if my pricing is right because I dump anything with writing that isn't transcription, haha.

    I've been saving up a percentage of my weekly earnings so I can pay GOOD not just okay, but depending on feedback, I might save more if I want to pay GREAT. I know what it's like, so I wanna be as fair as possible.

    have you read stigma fighters? That is about experiences with mental health issues and I imagine a fair few of the people who contributed attempted suicide.
