    I don't think anyone on here will be offended or anything that you posted this.

    I wish you luck in getting a new PC! I dunno what I would do if my PC just up and died :confused:

    Hard to when you are on disability and make crap for money. There are reasons people may be unable to work, thats not always a simple solution.

    That may be so, but if one is on disability then there are alternatives and one should not be living beyond ones means - and if you look at the ops fund page doesn't look like they're disabled - does it?

    Hmm, how does one *look* disabled? I have autism, I look perfectly normal on the outside. You can't just assume peoples living conditions.

    Sorry to hear your CPU fried, however asking $1500, which will build an incredibly powerful system with SSD, 2TB storage, 12GB of RAM, i7 CPU, powerful video card, new monitor, new keyboard and mouse, goes a little beyond the point of "help, my computer is broken".

    I do wish you good luck in your endeavor and that your guildies will chip in. Don't feel bad if you fall short as with $650, you can go for an i7 CPU, brand new video card, great motherboard, and 12GB of RAM. Personally I couldn't see myself posting such an appeal unless I intend to use it to create videos or something creative that requires all that horsepower. Just my opinion of course.

    I'm not saying this person does but having a mental illness has no look to it. As far as living beyond ones means. I guess you'd consider me living beyond my. I'm buying a computer but I'm making payments which will make it cost a lot more than if I bought it for cash I'd pay a whole lot less. Name some alternatives. You should never judge a person until you've walked in their shoes.
