tomorrow i am sending 10 packages out to 10 random users (well kinda random, people i have addresses for, which is a pretty huge amount with ctrl alt)
(http://i.imgur.com/K8AoFjD.jpg)
each package contains a little something, ranging from a bro cap to a keyboard to keychains, all kindsa bits really
inside each package will be a little note from me, saying pay it forward
these packages are totally unsolicited, so nobody is under any obligation to play along, so if you choose not to continue the chain, please enjoy your gift
if however you would like to play along, please send a little something to one to three more users, with a little note saying pay it forward within the package
i am starting by sending 10 out in the hopes its enough to get this going
please feel free to use this thread as a hub, to post pics etc, and if anyone would like to send packages anonymously, and dont have addresses for certain users, please contact me and ill see what i can do
thanks

But, could I abstain from this please? I know it's random but you have my details (( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)) and I can't afford to do much of anything right now and would feel super guilty if anything arrived!
Post by: BunnyLake on Wed, 09 September 2015, 09:35:08
Super cool idea. Reminds me I need to do some more giving.
yeah, i have been a bit more bitter than i would like recently, so wanted to do something fun

Soooooo MUCH YESSSSSSSSSSSS love it bunny. Seriously this could save someone's life !!! Imagine some keyboard fanatic so depressed and down decides this is the day I'm gong to kill myself. Poor bastard thinks huh nobody sends me anything but bills so for that extra little bit of depression why don't I go check the mail before I hang myself. Finds package from bunny in the mail with brocap and ctrl alt swag with a note saying PAY IT FORWARD and realizes that life is worth living :)) it could happen
this better not end in bunny getting stabbed on a playground
this got dark quick

Too bad I'm late. lol.
I hope this goes forward beyond imagination. I'm excited how far will this goes.

I think the point is that he doesn't want to be paid back. People paying it forward is reward enough.

I mean beyond this. You know? Like in the more ethereal sense...kind of like we should all try to be less salty and more community minded as a way of "giving back". Beyond the actual paying it forward.

I agree. I for one really hope this works well and people don't just stop the chain. A huge part of this hobby is the sharing of the things that you enjoy.
On a side note, what ever happened to the crowdsource keyset from a couple years back?

Edit: I know I have been shown and seen ALOT of kindness and acceptance here and I just want to give back. In not particularly wealthy or amazingly talented like so many of our great members but I can give my time and effort. I have been really trying to think of different ways I can give back/be more active. . I have a couple of GB INTEREST checks in mind etc something besides the occasional cap giveaway or donation to pay it forward to a hobby and forum/community that has given me so much joy :thumb:

18 international packages sent today for this
and i sent 3 to the uk which are on a separate receipt
so 21 total pay it forwards went out today
uk people should get theirs tomorrow but latest saturday
as a side note, about 10 of these packages i did a little research on, making sure they had the right boards etc, the other 11 are totally random, the contents of the packages vary in value, so please dont think its favouritism if you get something of a different value to someone else

I didn't notice any bitterness to be honest, just answers to personal attacks. This was not really on yourself but rather caused by external causes.Super cool idea. Reminds me I need to do some more giving.
yeah, i have been a bit more bitter than i would like recently, so wanted to do something fun

Excited to see what everyone gets. Post pics!
Not only this, but what continues the cycle. Hopefully the people that pay forward keep it a surprise so that there is even more stuff to post pics of!

18 international packages sent today for this
and i sent 3 to the uk which are on a separate receipt
so 21 total pay it forwards went out today
uk people should get theirs tomorrow but latest saturday
as a side note, about 10 of these packages i did a little research on, making sure they had the right boards etc, the other 11 are totally random, the contents of the packages vary in value, so please dont think its favouritism if you get something of a different value to someone else
The cost of that converted into Canadian Dollars right now makes me cringe (also, being originally from the U.K., it makes me cry a bit :'( )
Bunny, you da real MVP.
All lucky recipents: don't let bunny bro down, in fact, step up the game with your forward-paying-ness! :thumb:

This is exactly how I feel. I can't wait to see how this plays out and all the neat things that will be forwarded along. It isn't about the price or rarity either. It is just fun to see everyone put their own spin on it. I'm so into this. :)

Seconded or even thirded(is that even a thing ?) haha. For me with just about anything in life it's not only the end result that I enjoy but the journey getting there thats usually more then half the fun. I hope people document the process and I am really excited for everyone :thumb:The anticipation and waiting for photos to pop up is half the fun!

I was wondering what you'd shipped for £41 for a second there :eek:
Great to see you spreading the love worldwide, and even better as the receipt gives no clue where anything's going so it will be a complete surprise! How did it spiral from 10 to 15 to 21 packages though? You're too kind!
i kept seeing people post nice things, and wanted to include them, particularly as people showing interest in the thread, were more likely to continue it, and its not about just what i send, but how this grows from here, and i wanted to give it the best chance to have an impact
christmas would be a good time :thumb: but then again theres that secret santa stuff so idk - maybe whenever your in need. IMO service/kind acts as cool as it is for the receiver, are super important to the giver.

So the [CTRL]ALT network is using data to build profiles of Geekhackers? They have our addresses, switch preferences and t-shirt sizes.... Now they send out their 'care packages' to 'keep us happy'?
WAKE UP SHEEPLE!
They are clearly trying to alter our behavioral habbits! Making a domino effect of more 'care packages' What's next? Artisans in the water supply?!!

Seriously. For me, if my keyboard addiction is over that means I'm dead, and at that point my children, as executors of my estate, will discover the immense value of my collection and I imagine at least one of them will take up my mantle and begin down the path of the wallet hack.

Forget who mentioned it but I'm pretty sure someone already took Hipster's art and had it inked. Also who can forget imersa. And somewhat relevant to this topic, I thought Bunny had something GH related inked as well.

The Star Trek movie where the Ewoks rode on those flying motorcycles was my favorite one. The big Ewok that always hung around Harrison Ford was pretty cool too :p

hey guys
tomorrow i am sending 10 packages out to 10 random users (well kinda random, people i have addresses for, which is a pretty huge amount with ctrl alt)Show Image(http://i.imgur.com/K8AoFjD.jpg)
each package contains a little something, ranging from a bro cap to a keyboard to keychains, all kindsa bits really
inside each package will be a little note from me, saying pay it forward
these packages are totally unsolicited, so nobody is under any obligation to play along, so if you choose not to continue the chain, please enjoy your gift
if however you would like to play along, please send a little something to one to three more users, with a little note saying pay it forward within the package
i am starting by sending 10 out in the hopes its enough to get this going
please feel free to use this thread as a hub, to post pics etc, and if anyone would like to send packages anonymously, and dont have addresses for certain users, please contact me and ill see what i can do
thanks
Cant wait to see what everyone gets!
Bunny I am going to PM you.

sorry for being lazy, but did we get that shortened url sorted, Bunnysir?
Awesome idea. Posting so I can follow this.Should we create a url shorterner like bit.ly to this thread so everyone can write this link to that "Pay It Forward" paper for the receiver to get a background of this project?
I tried to shorten it and came up with this:
http://bit.ly/1M4Vfg3
The link will bring you back to this thread.
Not exactly very friendly to write down.
I’m thinking it should just be ctrlalt.io instead.
we could make a ctrlalt.io/pif link or something
thats a good idea ill get it sorted shortly
for the people who messaged me about addresses, i got really busy yesterday, ill be sorting those out this evening
thanks
Proposed ctrlalt.io shortcut hasn't been made, yet.

https://ctrlalt.io/payitforward
not the shortest but should be easy to remember
Post by: Belfong on Thu, 17 September 2015, 09:56:10
here you go guysCool! Thanks for taking up the suggestion. Each package should have this url written so the surprised receiver will come to this thread to post photos. And to continue the Paying It Forward.

I was in a rush to school so, and felt like it would cheer me up to open it when i got home. And so the wait began.
Opened it up and it was an awesome shirt!
(http://i.imgur.com/eI3o47X.jpg)
I thought to myself, "Well I do love California." and then it hit me, it's for [CTRL]Alt :p
Also came with a cool little card with the art previously posted (http://i.imgur.com/3CZIv0r.jpg)
(http://i.imgur.com/DyVmn0Z.jpg)
This is the back of the shirt and the back of the card
(http://i.imgur.com/Ycc5wlQ.jpg)
Thought i'd post a photo of me actually wearing the shirt since i never post any pictures.
(http://i.imgur.com/IyErc8L.jpg)
And then my girlfriend Sarah though I should take "better" photos and made me "model".
I now can see that I really need a hair cut :-X

I've been having plans on sending some stuff out to people, but school and all. So hopefully I can get some stuff out to people :D

I will admit, I don't really know how this ticket works, but I am pretty sure I get first crack at buying the Bros I want in the next sale. :) With all the cool new stuff Bro has been working on, that is pretty exciting.
I have ideas for a couple packages to send on to others. I need to do a bit of research to see who exactly I am going to send them to. Bunny, I will probably bug you to see if you have addresses for them once I figure it out because the surprise aspect of this is awesome. :P
I probably sound like a broken record at this point, but I am blown away by your generosity Bunny. Pretty soon we are going to have to petition Webster's to have BunnyLake added as a footnote to the definition of philanthropists. :)
Edit: BTW, the artwork on that card looks so cool in person. There is something about that candle that is so bloody cool. I can't even put my finger on it, but damn...

I keep rushing back to check out all the pics of well-deserving people getting cool keyboard swag. Please keep posting them!
Thank you again, Geek Hack (and all of you nice gift-giver-awayers), for being so awesome.
I need to wait a bit before I try to join this gift-giving fun. I keep distracting my CFO from adding up my keyboard expenses so far; As much as I hate typing on my current keyboard, hers is first in the keyboard build queue ;D

I got one of bunny's own 20g Shotty caps
CtrlAlt keychain
And the ctrl alt business card that hipster drew up(by the way I want no NEED a blown up version of this I can frame on my wall it is AMAZING :))....
Also I am just waiting on the address for one of my pay it forwards and I am seriously excited to get the package out. Seriously sending stuff to people and surprising/hooking people up is just as much if not more exciting and fulfilling for me then getting stuff myself :thumb:
Thanks for starting this off Bunny great idea and thanks for the swag ;)
Edit: also checking in with freshly did nails NRP :))

Is there a way to get a list of people as they post so that those of us that want to jump in without receiving can do so and not just start a round robin thing, but get more people involved?
I was thinking about how to handle this as well. I know some people will be interested in participating, while others would rather not participate because they don't feel like they have anything they can give. I was finding this a big hard to navigate when I was figuring out who to send stuff to. I ended up just PMing the people and saying "if you are interested in participating in PayItForward (http://ctrlalt.io/payitforward), send me your address". That worked, but now the people know they have something coming. Half of the fun of this is getting mystery packages though, so this approach takes some of the fun out of it.
I was thinking about doing something similar to what I did with, http://gh60-market.swillkb.com/, where people could opt-in to PayItForward. Obviously we would not want everyone's address published, but I think it would be cool if they could add their address and then if someone wants to send them a gift they could PM me and get the address. I don't know if you all trust me with your addresses, but at least we would not be showing the whole internetz...
I would expect the public to be able see something like:
Willing to participate in PayItForward
======================================
---------------------------------------------------------------------
| username | country | classified | gave address | contact |
---------------------------------------------------------------------
| jdcarpe | USA | Link | Yes | PM swill (link) |
| BunnyLake | UK | Link | No | Manual |
| dummyname | Canada | | No | Manual |
| ... etc ... |
---------------------------------------------------------------------
The classified link would be optional, but would help people give stuff to people that they are interested in. Submitting an address would also be optional. If they submitted an address then anyone could PM me to get their address so they could be surprised by the gift. If they don't enter an address then the giver would have to PM them directly to get the address, but they would at least know that the person is interested in doing it.
Would something like this be interesting? I could build this tonight and have it up and running tomorrow morning if this is of interest...

This would work for those that are willing to participate for future, but it would need a way to include those that already recieved so that we don't just keep piling on stuff to one or two people.
If you put that together, you can add me.
Also, not sure if people putting their name on a list takes away from the spirit of this. Looking back now, I think it would be better to just have a list of those that received something.

Ya, its not an easy thing to figure out a nice way to handle this. If people have to pm me to get the address, I can try to keep track of whose addresses get requested and notify the people that someone has sent something to that person. Starting to add a bunch of manual process in this, but that is just an opportunity to get creative with software. :)Is there a way to get a list of people as they post so that those of us that want to jump in without receiving can do so and not just start a round robin thing, but get more people involved?

I could have another form that would be a list of people who got stuff and they could enter that so people know that they have already participated. As Badwrench points out, this information is also useful.

that being said, this isnt my thing, it is everyones, and its great to see people getting in to the spirit of it, i want it to grow organically, and if that is the way its gonna grow, more power to it

personally, whilst i appreciate the work, something feels slightly off about having people sign up for this as it were

Ya, I hear ya. I kind of feel the same way to be honest. Something does not feel right about signing up for this. I will hold off on publishing anything unless there is overwhelming interest in it. It is literally an hour of work for me to have something ready, so it is something we can decide to do later if it is wanted.
On the same page I was thinking of doing a form to allow people to post that they got something. Maybe this is more inline with the spirit of what we are doing here. The fields I was considering adding where Receiver, Sender and Pictures (a link to where they posted pictures of the gift). I would suggest people post pictures in the PayItForward thread and then just post the link to the post they posted the pictures in. This might keep some excitement around it and let people quickly click through and see a bunch of pictures of stuff people have been getting. Not sure if that is interesting...
Sorry I am a software developer, so when I have my hammer out, everything looks like a nail. :P

Wouldn't it possible to have a system behind the page that raffle people together. I mean you fill a database with the info people put in, then the system raffle people together and send them an email with the info regarding the person they need to PIF to. That way the system could keep track of those who already received something so they would be drawn out of the raffle until everyone has something and then it could just start over. ^^Is there a way to get a list of people as they post so that those of us that want to jump in without receiving can do so and not just start a round robin thing, but get more people involved?

I was going to post in your thread, but I don't have any alps, so I don't wanna clutter the thread with non-entries.
Good luck! :thumb:

HOLY
FREAKIN
*(&(^%%!!!!!!
BadWrench, through whatever voodoo/psychic power he possesses, knew I had been on the never-ending search for a Binge keythulu. So, he ended my quest by fullfilling one of my dreams at GH. He sent me Keythulu. And it wasn't just any Keythulu, it was one of Binge's firsts.
Not only that, he also sent me a plethora of other awesome goodies such as a HKP warmaster and a GH pack from Techkeys. OH, and also this super awesome TRON Christmas ornament. Because he's an awesome fellow.
Words cannot describe the feeling of disbelief, amazement, and wonder that such a random act of (personal) kindness was bequeathed upon me. As a female working in STEM, I've had to fight tooth, nail, and claw to get to where I am. I'm not used to simply asking for what I want and getting it, and this really made me stop and contemplate the things going on around me. I was able to realize that whatever work **** I had going on ultimately didn't matter because in the end, all that matters is our relationships with each other. How if we treat each other with kindness, we'd all be in a better place.
So, here are some pics of my Pay It Forward package from Badwrench. Thank you my friend, you really are one of the good guys and you made that week so much better. Truly, I cannot tell you how much it meant to me. <3

This post is woefully late because well, life . . . BUT!!!! I was the lucky recipient of BadWrench's awesome generosity and love. That week, I was having an especially rough time at work and was pretty much as stressed out as I've ever been at my job. Suddenly I get a random message from BadWrench telling me that I had a package. I raced downstairs to my mailroom and since it was Monday, the weekend mail and not been sorted. So together the mail guy and I unearth this mysterious package and I race back to my desk to open it.
HOLY
FREAKIN
