I'm trying to dig up the posts that lead to raising money for Nilly so I can use them/ask permission from the people posting for my book.
Anyone have an idea of the roundabout date that happened?

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Mid March-ish 2003, I think. But I can't find the thread to Nilly you a link.
I theeeenk just before St. Pat's that year but not positive.

The status is NOT quo.
It was in Minearverse on the first night I began posting--I think March 13th, 2004, or therabouts.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Here's a hivemind question:
I'm using all of the posts from that night (pertaining to raising Nilly's trip money) in Nilly's story, "Random Acts of Paypal."
It's important to show how it organically occurred.
I'm unsure how to go about doing that, given we own our posts.
Is it something we could vote on as a community? I could upload the story to B.org somewhere (or host it myself) so people can read what I'm talking about.
Would it be better to email individuals whose posts I'm using?
It's just such a HUGE chunk of Buffistas being quoted.
I'm looking for opinions on how to proceed.

I think it's safer to do person-by-person, sadly (for you). I don't think (though I have no legal or any other factual basis for this) that buffistas.org owns anything -- I think each person's posts are his or her own. I don't think I have any ability (even through a community vote) to say it's OK for you to publish Buffista X's words.

Allyson, why don't you put a call out in Press, with linky to the discussion, and ask for permission to use the posts, and let people email you yea or nay, then after a couple of days, see who's left whose posts you need and email them for permission.
