Process Donation Mountain! [Suggestion]

CuddleBeam · 08-15-2013

Another (wild) suggestion is to have the Process host a fundraising program for charity, with a similar format to the “when I reach XXX$ in donations, I will reveal the next part of the comic” format that is arising. But in masse. Here is how it goes down:

Artists submit (donate) a piece of art, along a target amount (metaphorically, a "height"). When the grand donation pool reaches up to an images target amount, it is revealed to everyone. For example, Artist A puts an image at the 20$ mark and Artist B puts one on the 35$ mark . People will donate and donate, and when the grand pool of donations reach 20$, the first image is revealed. Then, more people donate and when 35$ have been donated in total, the second image is revealed. Then, after a certain amount of time, all of the money collected is donated to a charity and we start anew. There are multiple benefits with this system:

-If Process hosts it, it will get a lot of exposition and a hell of a lot of good propaganda, pretty much for free.
-Artists want exposition. They want to be noticed. This would allow them to obtain that and cause a good impression of themselves, in exchange for a single image donation.
-People want to see material from artists. They’ll pay for it. Plus, there is the additional incentive that their money will go to those who really need it.
-It “decriminalizes” what we do here. Process would be used for good, with the same system firefighters use to sell their erotic calendars.

-It’s good for the charities who need it, goddangit! :P

If Process officially approves and sponsors this, I'd gladly get this up and running on something like Kickstarter, IndieGogo, Gofundme or something.

It's going to need some tweaking before it's ready to implement on any kind of wide scale, but overall I agree with the intent of this project.

I like the intention of this but feel its a bad idea.

I don't think any charity would want to be associated with a fetish site.

Just saying.

This isn't something that I want to do officially. Nothing against charity, but I just don't think it's something that I can allow to be official. Especially on the current concept of this idea.
