I hope getting a gift from someone will prove to my parents this place isn't a hovel of nigerian royalty pedophiles who want to send a computer virus through the postal service. They wouldn't let me do Satans because "Really? Why would you buy something for someone from a forum?" as they phrased it.
Oh that was YOU. You said "SAINT" and I was like "No that makes you a Saintee".
But since you posted this in here, I'm going to say essentially what I said in my response email to you, so I can see if our friends here agree with my ruling on this.
My thought is - yes, I could add you for non-physical gifts like Steam games, Amazon gift certificates, etc - but for things that can be mailed to your physical address, I feel that it is also your parents address and they have a right to say who and who does not receive that private information.
My point is, if your parents are saying "everyone on the internet is a pedophile and scary and terrible", the words "hey mom I gave out our address despite your wishes and look what I got from these guys" isn't going to be met with, "OH, I WAS SO WRONG!" -- it will be met with "PEOPLE ON THE INTERNET HAVE OUR ADDRESS???"
In short - my wishes are that you go for non-tangible / email gifts, and respect your parents wishes. Their roof, their rules, y'know? One of those things.

My mom was like that. And then I moved in with my Dad.
Do you remember Yahoo! chat? And to go to a room, you had to type in the name of it? Well, I started typing in anatomical words when I was 15 and ended up in an Adult chat room. Someone immediately asked, "are you over 18?" and I said "yes" and they said, "No you aren't. A cop car is on it's way, now. Get out before they show up."
I was new to the internet. And I was terrified. I ran to my dad's work and sat in a chair and trembled for a good 2 hours.
I never got any weirdness from him about me talking to people on the internet. He seemed to encourage it. But I like the internet. If it weren't for the internet, I would have never become not anti-social. Backwards, eh?

Actually I just showed my mom what some people got in Satans and now she says I can do Secret Satans next year, it was more of a skeptical thing than the hyperbole I mentioned, since hyperexaggeration seems to be par for the course in SE++. I just directly confirmed from the parentals it's cool for internet people to send gifts to our house.
EDIT: and i can see how my username caused some confusion. whoops.jpg

My Mom despises pretty much everything about the internet.
Before he died I don't think my Dad really knew much about it.
If I told my Mom about any of this she would just think it was stupid.
Okay, Saint - if you have permission, then of course you're permitted. We'll try to make your mother proud.
Hear that guy? NO FLESHLIGHTS.
My grandpa won't let my grandma have the internet, he thinks it's scary and evil. I sent my grandma a netbook for Christmas last year and now she goes around to coffee shops and stuff and I don't think he even realizes that internet can be obtained in that way.

a reminder to anyone who wants to sign up as a Saintee, to SIGN UP. You've only got another day and a half! well, basically until Friday at 9 or 10 PM PT
Yeah I'm going to extend applications 'till tomorrow night since I'll be busy until then anyway. Stupid, stupid forum crashing. That and there's only like 4 saintees.

Well Raijin's complaining about being pretty poor, but I believe all of his gift money is going TO his kids
Maybe we should donate something to his poor wife, who is getting nothing this year

Waaaaait you're 15? I could swear you were older than that. At least, you looked a lot older than that the one or two times I've seen you on tinychat.
So I guess I shouldn't bring up the time we coerced Anjin to whip his dick out and Tommy was in the room, huh?
Yeah, we aren't poor to the strictest of terms, just don't have a whole lot of extra income to spend on each other.
I'm thinking of signing up as a Saint. I won't be able to do much, but I can spare a small gift for someone perhaps...I must ponder.

HEYOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
I will probably send out a couple gifts for this this year, but they probably won't be as cool as last year.
