Title: Way to convince....
Post by: Arkatsson on February 08, 2007, 02:08:11 AM
My parents say no due to it being a waste of money. How do I convince them to say yes to allow me to use my father's paypal account to donate my $20? Heh can you say 40 days of Kyuubi if I can convince them.  :twisted:

Just say "Mom may I please use your hard earned money to donate to a T.B.N.M.M.O.R.P.G." always works  :D

Hello - I am a parent.

Do what my son did - show you parent what the game is about, this is how I was introduced. I even "borrowed" my son's account and made him get a new one...I love being "father"
 :D

I too am a parent. 

Try starting with a smaller amount.  My son plays and I would have reservations about him doing $20 at a time.  But $10 here & $10 there, much easy to let slide.  You might even have to slip down to $5.  You still get your prize mount, just for a shorter time. 

If they allow you, at a lesser amount, you might try dropping hints about how much you enjoy it, just to butter them up for the next time.  But you know your parents best.  Some are easier to move than others.

your parents shouldn't even be paying if you can get money. all you do is ask five friends for a dollar. Than when you have five dollars you mail it to baluski and walaaa. YOu have kyuubi for ten game days

I have the money to spend but I can't mail it to Baluski, I don't know the way to walk to the nearest place to mail.

I have a mailbox but everytime we send a letter we put it at the post office I'm not sure the post guy takes out letters from our mailbox.

We have a post man I'll ask my mom or dad if the post person takes mail from our box but my mom always go to the post office to mail bills and stuff.

Post by: Arkatsson on March 07, 2007, 12:27:07 AM
If I put it in the mail box the mailman will mail it but my dad says if I get caught I will face the consequences. I said you let me give $5 for Runescape why not $5 for this. He said Runescape is better this is a text based game. I said its my money I can spend it the way I want he said I need to pay for my fencing gear even though I bought it all already.

This is way better than runescape! And you fence? That's cool  :D

I really can't help you convince your parents (if i asked my father he would chase me with an axe, at the least  :orcpoursuite:), but i thnk you should try doing it on your own, if you really want to
Title: Re: Way to convince....
Post by: asdfjkl on March 31, 2007, 07:53:24 PM
just give the five dollars to a friend and let him mail it for you...i know, it's so simple it just might work
