Heroes in need of saving

Even heroes need help

DJ Amethyst and DJ Nexus are close to being homeless.  Please help your fellow CoXers if you are able.

Kheprera

Yeah, I knew that.  Fixed.

I follow both, always confusing their names    :roll:

DrakeGrimm

No worries. And they do live rather close to each other, geographically. Or so I'm led to believe. ;)

Does anyone know where, approximately, that is?  I ask mostly to move this thread off the third page, but seriously, maybe money isn't all we can do.
I wouldn't use the word "replace," but there's no word for "take over for you and make everything better almost immediately," so we just say "replace."

Atlantea

I have no money to send myself (I'm one step away from being in their situation myself.)

But I will spread the word to people who CAN help!

I'm not sure where I fall, as I've moved my family into my mother's house, am going back to school, and have taken on a part-time job and some volunteer work (occasional Habitat stuff).  That said, I'm working on my wife to see if we can't throw something their way, as they don't seem to have the options I do.  I'm not trying to pressure or guilt anyone, but I was upset to see this had fallen to page three.  It's well above what we were able to do for our devs, which is awe-inspiring, and it appears to cover their immediate needs, but I know what it's like to be where they are.

Agreed, which is why I posted it in the first place.  I only told DJ Amethyst I'd help spread the word, but I need help doing that.  I sent her a link for the thread.

Thank you.

Wyldnytes

Thank you all so much.  We are just in awe of what folks have done thus far.

To answer the above question, we're just NW of Chicago.

Thank you Khep for continuing to spread the word, you're an angel.

*hugs you all*

Burnt Toast

I have no idea who these people are LOL, but I get paid Friday and will donate whatever I can. Since I am not going to be paying for CoH...I figure I can use my sub money to help you guys out. I hope it helps.

Chipped in.  Best of luck to you both.

Guys, they are at 61%.  Push them over the top...

I popped it on my Failbook last night, and once I am slightly less broke I will also ping some money their way.

That's awesome! Last night when I checked they were at 45%

Let's help out our fellow heroes! :)

Ultraviolets

Chipped in for the cost of a sub. The monthly CoH kind, not the Quiznos kind > >
I do not know them, but wish them the best of luck.

74% guys.  Let's put these community feelings to help out some members of the community.

TOmorrow I brew coffee at home instead of hitting the shop, sending that money their way.

Victoria Victrix

Already chipped in, and waiting to see what the budget looks like to see if I can manage more.
I will go down with this ship.  I won't put my hands up in surrender.  There will be no white flag above my door.  I'm in love, and always will be.  Dido

Wyldnytes

You are all just so amazing.  Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts, Nexus and I thank you.
