I really dont think that we think we are better than anyone, we are just showing our status (that proboly sounded contradicting) but I think that we are mainly joking around. And we use other, non-donators, words (like this thread) to just take advantage of it. And for donations, I gaurentee you that 90 percent or more of us have donated our own money. My mom encouraged me to donate more than i was going to originally, and she warned me, that it was my money, blah blah. But as you listed off a bunch of things (car, skis, etc)for most people that are in that case and said they would have donated if they would have known, THERE WOULD ALWAYS BE SOMETHING ELSE THEY HAD TO BUY. they wouldn't have donated regardless of what they said. And even if the administrators allowed donations again many of the kids who claim to want to donate wont. And I gaurentee you that.
