1. Anyone who would like one |
|
deserves one, because it shows they value DU membership.
However, making people jump through hoops and prove their worthiness just because they don't have some spare cash to buy a start is kind of uncool. :(
If you're looking to be generous, that's cool, but it might be really nice if you just donate for the first one or two people you see who want a start, no questions asked.

3. Not meaning to sound disprespectful or insulting.. |

I could certainly pick someone at random, but I choose not to. I wouldn't walk down the street handing out $10 bills, I'd want to know that the person I gave it to needed it. Remember, there are plenty of DU'ers out there who plan to make a donation, and just haven't yet, and still more who could care less if they have a star or not. I'm simply seeking out those who genuinely want or need one-and that hardly constitutes making someone "jump through hoops". I didn't ask them to eat a live chicken and mail me the feathers-just tell me why I'm helping. If you'd like to donate stars with "no questions asked" I think that's great, and I applaud those DU'ers who do.
