(other than that one might get bombarded by charities?)
This really. One of those rules where, when we're applying it to posters with a long history here it can seem a little punitive, but we need to have one rule for all on stuff like this. IIRC Ted put this in place originally, but essentially it is there to stop us being overrun with justgiving.com thread requests. Harsh I realise, but the upshot is that when we do back stuff and take it forward, we can raise a LOT of money, like we did for Yorkshire Air Ambulance, or like it looks like we're going to do on the Sailing Sunday Service.
I won't go over what has already been covered by my colleagues, but I will add that events such as Caring with Cars, Fallen Bikers and the Tall Ships Sunday Service have all come from charity posts that have been requested or deleted.
If the cause is worthy and the event unique, we will always look at ways to make a better news story or at least point them to the (free) event calender.
Obviously this isn't the case with all of them, but it does show that we don't just delete and ignore.
