Hi, first of all if admin feel the need to move this I will fuly understand. I would normallty ask first but can't work out how to contact admin.

Secondly I know I'm not such a regular on here, I post more on a forum that isn't as good as this one and thirdly, I know I've been quite controversial the last time I was on.

Now having said all of that. I posted this yesterday on that forum and I wanted to ask the same question here.

"Not sure what kind of reaction I'm going to get here, so please be gentle and understanding. I know I've picked a bad time to start being controversial, because now I'm going to ask even those members who hate me, to forget that.

I've written a book, which after a lot of thought and heart pulling, I've decided to publish later this year (September)

I'm going to publish it for Charity - 100% of all profits. I do not want to make a penny out of it as I've already benefitted from the story more than anyone could imagine.

Without giving too much away, the

Which charities are you donating the profits to. Have you donated any money to them before?
Thanks

I'm in talks with 3 charities Smiggo but haven't made a final decision yet, one of the reasons for that is the charities themselves are slow to accept this kind of project.

The 3 I'm in talks with are Big Issue, CentrePoint and the Foundation of Light a charity ran by Sunderland football club.

I'm aiming for the cash to be used to benefit under privileged kids and/or runaways.

I have donated to them before, but a small private donation only. Not through any kind of fundraising effort.

I'm not a professional writer, just some bloke who has a nice story to tell.

Hope that helps.
Ronnie

It's on the Another forum, with the same titled thread.

I can't link to it 1884 cos it wouldn't be fair to link to another Forum.

** your original post as well as this one has been edited as it doesn't comply with site rules. Footy mad do not freely promote other forums. Chris311080**

OK I'm sorry to say Ronnie that, by precedent set when I was banned, you will receive a yellow card for 24 hours. You have deliberately reposted the of a rival forum (that I cannot myself) after a moderator had deleted the reference. I was banned for exactly that, so you must expect the justice of the Rat to be meted out again.

Either that or the Rat and his cohorts are bigger hypocrites than we all believe.

[roger_ramjet]

OK, it looks like hypocrisy is in fact the order of the day. Would be nice to understand why I was banned for reposting the of that forum after it had been mod deleted, whereas Ronnie was treated more sensibly and appropriately.

I'm sorry about your banning Roger.

I didn't know writing the of it even is a ban, I can understand linking to it.

I'm really disappointed that Chris needed to do what he did, but if they are the rules then what can I say. if I'm banned then I have to accept that as well.

I only mentioned it because some of the members have read the book in draft form and it would give others an overview.

Trying to do something decent but petty rules get in the way.

[chris311080]

Ok..

Roger you are a regular poster and well aware of site rules.

Ronnie very rarely posts so may not be aware.

Simples!!
