*** Help a DUer *** Sunday, 8/4/13

37. With due respect, when you highlight wishes here because of a DU connection

you are promoting the wisher here. It makes sense to do so because DUers who might not otherwise donate to wishers will do so when they feel a connection. That obviously helps leverage more $$ for the wisher and that's a good thing. However, it cuts both ways. In this case you posted a wish for someone who was a n00b DUer who managed to have three posts hidden in a week before being PPR'ed.
That some DUers wouldn't want to support someone who had just made a mess here is understandable.

If you're willing to throw away the added fundraising potential for all other DUers because of this troll, that's sad.
