Here you go - 3p, should get you started.

Won't fit through the slots on my modem though, 1 pence piece got in no problem, the 2 pence piece is too big .

Tell us about your movie. Ohh, and you'd be surprised how many people would pay to be in a movie, any movie.

I'll give you a quid. Just pop over to the UK and you can collect it.

P.S. I beg of you, for the sake of humanity, please stop begging for money and get a job and don't give us all that rubbish about there being no paper rounds or lawns that don't need mowing or cars that need washing, e.t.c. Get out and do something!!!!

Make a smashingly innovative title in Dark Basic and sell it. Then you'll have enough to make your low-budget (at least I hope it's low) movie.

Get job database(DC David).

You asking for money annoys me so much.While there's nothing wrong with doing it once in a while, asking people for money without sufficient details isn't the best way to earn.If I'm correct though, you're a wonderful business dealer, so you should be able to get everything for free.

well i'd give him a break to that extent---i remember i used to get caught up in my own fantasies too at his age...and i used to also think that I could actually make them come true - LOL

(and we're talking stupid stuff like making the world's greatest video games and having virtually everyone like it)

The part that bothers me about this, is many reasons.(concerning database)

Here's the history as I know him.

1- Formerly known as DC David.
2- Spammed by starting 10 new threads, with the regular newbie questions.(mmorpg, HELP!!!,etc.)
3- Everyone got annoyed with him
4- He apoligized and said he wouldn't post for 2 weeks
5- Technically "DC David" doesn't post, he changes name to Database
6- He talks about getting DB "for free"
7- He talks about getting modeling program "for free"
8- He talks about how great a dealer he is
9- He starts a thread on movie
10- He trys to suck money out of a good community of hobby programmers/modelers/etc.

Database, if you read this, I hope it knocks some sense into you.
Get a job, work hard, earn money. Rather than

"I'm a lazy kid, who wants to get everything for free, and get through life easy.So give me money!"

It just angers me, that I work hard to get the cash I earn, to buy DBP, TS5.2, computer books, and computer upgrades.Then someone comes along and spams the heck out of everyone to get money.

The easy way, is the wrong way sometimes.

He'll speak back to us by probably starting another suite of threads along the lines of either:

1) I need money for a video camera to make my blockbuster movie
2) Visit my new site, www.givemeloadscash.com?affiliateid=annoyingtw*t
3) Bored of DB, need free copy of DBPro - can someone copy it for me
4) Does anyone know phone number of Arnie. I'll keep phoning him until he caves in and agrees to be in my movie.

Oh my goodness...

5) Does anyone here know Bruce Willis, or Richard Gear, or Van Diesel. - I need some actors for my blockbuster.
6) Does anyone here know Bill Gates - I can find a way to get him to loan me his bank account so I can pay my actors.
7) Do you think that John Williams can help me with a score here.
8) Give me your blood. That's right YOUR BLOOD.

'Do you think that John Williams can help me with a score here.'

Well that one isn't too hard. Whereever you go, it's John Williams composed this, John Williams made the music for that, and oh-my-god-we-got-John-Williams-to-make-music-for-this-other-thing. I don't know what the big deal is, seeing as all his music, although enjoyable, is almost exactly the same, and it seems like he's composing for every other movie made...

no he doesn't...in fact, he doesn't score very many of the new movies, just the very high-budget and dramatic/fantasy ones...Kinda like Danny Elfman(my personal fav.)...John Williams is probably one of the greatest film composers of all time....But as far as him scoring every other movie goes, i've noticed that composers like Hans Zimmer, Harry Gregson Williams, Trevor Rabin, etc etc have been composing for most of the new movies coming out....Also, dont confuse John Williams' music with Mark Mancina's...They have a very similar style.

Also, i find all of Williams' scores to be dramatically different, and they all have their own character and feel. I mean, try comparing his score of Star Wars or Minority Report to 'Hymn to the Fallen'(Saving Private Ryan score) or to the score of Jaws, or even Close Encounters of the 3rd kind.

CrazyMon,

'5) Does anyone here know Bruce Willis, or Richard Gear, or Van Diesel. - I need some actors for my blockbuster.'

You spelt it wrong you ninny, it's not Van Diesel, it's Van-B - and I have far too many commitments to take part in a low budget movie. If he manages to convince Angelina Jolie though, I'm in.

I don't care how hard it is to get a job. There are very few excuses for being a blithering idiot at 13 years. I did a whole lot of dumb things and made some stupid posts, but nothing on the level of this guy.

Heck there's tons of ways to make money on the internet.Most of them are scams, but asking the db community for money?That's absurd.

Out of all these topics database/dc david has started, he hasn't even replied to any of them.No furhter reasoning or anything.Yea, that's how much convidence he has in himself.When we asked for more info. he started a whole new thread.

I'm going to try to avoid posting on any of his posts.(unless something good comes up.)Let's just let these threads float onto the bottom.

But on a different note, try going down the docks where the sailors are. I'm sure an enterprising young man can pick up quite a bit of money down there. Just buy a big cushion.
