I was wondering if anyone has any spare time cards laying around. >_> My two little brothers have been playing WoW for a year now, and our family got into a very rough time (my father left us and went to florida after putting a close relative in a coma while on coke) and we've moved in with our grandmother, who has very little income enough herself, and I haven't been able to get a job since the accident, I've been watching my brothers. With our situation, I think it would be benneficial for them to get their minds off of everything. I thought of this, and wasn't sure if anyone had a spare account, or time card, that I could use for them. I know it's a stretch and I am sorry if this is imposing. Thank you.

A tip: don't ask for accounts around here. As this looks like a genuine post, I'm sympathetic, and don't want to see the mods crack down on you. Stay legal and you may get something.

As far as direct help I'm very sorry but I cannot help myself. But hopefully somebody around the board can. Good luck.

As you can probably understand, it's impossible to determine the legitimacy of posts like this. I'm not going to lock it, and I can't say anything for this specific case, but people have tried many times to scam things out of people online by looking for sympathy. If you're thinking of donating, you do so at your own risk.

If this is genuine then I'm sure you can understand why I write that. And I wish you the best with sorting things out.

If it's legitimate, and if the little brothers are old enough to play WoW...
then here's my 2 cents.

Keep the bro's off the internet. (and save grandma the ISP costs) They are old enough to start helping grandmother around the house. This is a perfect opportunity to start teaching them some responsibility and it wouldn't hurt for them to spend more time with grandma. And after chores...take them all to the park or something. I lost my grandparents when I was very young and looking back...I wish I had got to know them better and spend more time with them. Don't waste time sitting in front of a PC all day and ignoring the one person who is looking after you.

That's a very good idea on your part. The only problem is my grandmother works a lot, just to put a roof over our heads. She works from 8:30 - 12:30, then again 5-10, so it's just me and the boys all night and a lot of the time I have to work on my courses (I am being homeschooled through BYU, which also is an expense I am working on paying myself as best I can). thank you for your input, and I realize this may seem a scam, but I said, I knew it was a stretch- a world full of dishonest people, makes everyone a suspect.

thank you for your ideas, and support.
