Hey its me again. I'm not trying to be impatient or anything but when will I get my giftcode since my buddy soloplex is like "I don't wanna wait years till I get my giftcode". I trust you vexx but will it be better for me to get it for my birthday (August) or shall i wait? I'm only 20% sure I can get it for my birthday. I asked it for christmas since I'm still a kid and uh I didn't get it. I still got good stuff though XD I wish i could donate but I cant and if I could i wouldnt be asking you to get me a giftcode. Ill look at this topic each week .
I made a little program in which you type in your name and it tells you the number on the list you're on, so you don't have to come here and look the list all the time. It also prints the top 10 users on the list so you can quickly notice if something has changed without typing your name first. (The name checking is not case sensitive)
Ello, I am actually new to Minecraft and was introduced by a friend from school. I have seen videos before but it never seemed to appeal to me. Now that I have actually done the demo (PcGamer demo) I was blown away. After the time limit ran out I zoomed to the site to register and to ask my mother if she could buy it.
Like so many others here. The answer was no.
Due to the economy, money has been tight for us, and many others here as well I'm betting.
When I first saw this thread(Lead by a random banner while browsing the forums, thank you
†BULLET†) I was, may I say it...in disbelief. I couldn't think of someone giving away HUNDREDS maybe nearing THOUSANDS of gift codes for Minecraft. I am least to say shocked at such
generosity. I see this as a charity for people who can't afford the game. It must be difficult to do such for so many people.
Though I hate to add on to it, I wish to get a gift code as well. The game has sucked me in with its unique gameplay and style.
I would be extremely grateful for this. Really Minecraft is the only game that is of interest to me. Its something new, a sight for the eyes instead of today's games(But they are fun too).
If I do get a code I will make a video of me:
A. Dancing like a crazy person who just won the Powerball Lottery
B. Dancing for 5 hours.....ok 1 minute.
Please keep this up for as long as you can, you are putting lots of smiles on the faces of many.

Hello, like Kono, my parents find spending money on the internet a waste because of financial issues and because they believe its unsafe, I would be gratefull if you could please give me a Minecraft Code, again i am Thankful that you are here to help many of us.
im Ken, i may look like im old enough for Cars and Credit Cards but im not. my parents have Bad credit and have gone through Bankruptcy. I would like a Minecraft code because me and my Brother have been wanting one for Months. On behalf of me and my brother, we are thankful that you are helping the Less fortunate.You truly are one of those people that make a Big impact on Peoples lives by doing the most simple things.
Hello, stumbled across someone with the sig to your sporebase thread, I understand the list is full but wondering if i can still post my request or not and possibly be added at a later date?
And yes I made an account just for this reason but now that I have one I shall actualy be using it to comment on texture packs and mods I see around here and there.
I won't be keeping a list of people who want to be added, no. That simply defeats the purpose of imposing a limit in the first place.

Ill look at this topic each week .
As I've been saying these past few weeks, I'm at a bit of a standstill; there's currently no way for me to purchase codes or send money to people who really need it so they can buy Minecraft themselves... So, until I can work something out, there's no way I can do anything at all, much less speed anything up.
I any case, it'll be a while. If you are able, it's probably a better idea to get it on your birthday.

PS. It's not a virus or anything, you can easily verify that using www.virustotal.com
Hmm. Interesting. If you could do one with a GUI, I'd probably be happy to put it up in the OP. Command-line ones are nifty, but many things can hide easily in command lines and they often make users more suspicious.

Sorry... the list is full. And until I can work out a way to continue this, there's no point adding more people to it anyway.
So....
Any ideas, guys?
Mojang have so far not responded to my pleas, so we must (for now) look to alternatives. PayPal is out, and unless it is 100% impossible otherwise, I won't go and waste a ton of time making a hundred email addresses and accounts for this. Any other ideas, besides borrowing someone else's account to do it though?
K. Current Status:
Mojang have not responded to the request I sent them. I'll send them another one presently, and hope they respond. In the meantime, any ideas for what we can do in the interim?
Feel free to pester Jeb and Notch (and probably Mollstam) until they do something
I must needs send them another email...
hmm i'll go pester them on twitter to make sure they check their customer support page. It seems they update their twitters a lot so why not? It's gonna be impossible for this whole donation project to work if they don't fix the problem. I'll see what i can do but in the meantime, keep saving money for all the accounts. I'm sure I or someone else will think of a solution.
Maybe I'll ask my server (Opticraft) to pitch ideas, if they can.
I don't think there is a workaround. My idea was trying to have another payment-processing account other than PayPal but that wouldn't work. Guess there goes the idea to make a bunch of code-giving accounts then.

Have you tried contacting them somewhere else? (Twitter maybe: @jeb_, @notch or @mollstam since he do web stuff).

vexx, could you use an alternate payment system, like alertpay or something, then transfer it to people's paypal accounts?
That's what I was saying, just a bit less specific. I don't think it'd work since you have to convince people to get another payment account, and so will vexx, etc.
I think one reason that you're not allowed to have a payment process unless you have a credit card (in this case, your account's verified) is to prevent any abusive transactions that can happen without a credit card.

Yeah, having an alertpay would work, but then people still need to be able to use PayPal to send the funds, which cannot be done without a credit card or bank account... so, yeah :/
Have you tried contacting them somewhere else? (Twitter maybe: @jeb_, @notch or @mollstam since he do web stuff).
Oh, from time to time. They only respond occasionally... and when they do, it's often very brief and vague. Can't say I blame them, after all, they are busy people, but still...

Yep... It all stops working when we get to PayPal... sadly

Not a problem, I'm still going to bookmark this thread cause once I can I will donate a little from my own paychecks once I start getting them again. This is a noble thing your doing and want to help out.

If AlertPay does the same policy then I think you're just running out of options.

Maybe it's just not from how busy they are, it's also from how often they check Twitter.

May I please have a Minecraft Gift Code, My reason is that my parents can't afford the money and my dad quiet his job because the people at his job suck. He's been getting a lot of stress. Also I friends keep bragging about how they have minecraft and I don't. 1 guy even lauged at me and said I suck. Another reason is that my parents don't trust online. My uncle got sick from buying this thing online so now they don't trust online buying. It would be nice if you could give me a Minecraft gift code. Your the nicest person on planet earth my friend, and probely the best gamer. Thank you in advance.
Or, You could just open the waiting list and press Ctrl + F and type your username
Nice
