Hi DiceVip Members,

I wasn't to sure what to blog about when George had told me to put something up for him. Seeing as though I had some spare time I thought i'd help him out.

Now i've always believed the philosophy of paying it forward after watching the movie 7 years ago for a high school project. Quite simply it just means that if you give something to someone in need, they will then pay it forward to the next person in need, to the point that it can help not only that one person but the next.

In saying all this I figuired i'd put the CS community to the test. Now i've undoubtedly over the years of playing the game have gone out of my way to help these individuals one way or another. Whether it be in or out of the game.

The following conversations are real. Dated 18/01/2010

Have a think to yourselves, when was the last time you've helped someone in need? If you can't think of the last time that was, I think it's due to lend a helping hand?

Personally i just donated $100 to the Haiti earthquake appeal. If you would lke to do the same please follow the link provided.
