    Quoted from electricsquirrel:

    If he makes it through this, I guarantee that he will be back to gloat and brag about it.

    When did he ever stop? He’s still does it while begging. A rare combo!

    #1802 3 years ago
    Quoted from CrazyLevi:

    He has zero employees so I don't think that would work.

    you don't need them, I got one as a sole proprietorship for my side business just need a schedule C. I didn't necessarily need it at the time either, but got it the same reason this guy started a GoFundMe page.

    Interest rates were insanely low on the EIDL loan, and almost all of the PPP will be forgiven for most. Unless he was denied the loan, a GoFundMe doesn't really make sense.

    #1803 3 years ago
    Quoted from Colsond3:

    Well that’s certainly one way to put it.

    I guess it’s entertaining to those who he didn’t chisel, chooch, bamboozle, railroad, con, swindle, gyp, dupe, hoodwink, exploit, rook, mislead, manipulate and freeload on. Sure I can see it.

    Quoted from hocuslocus:

    He will take peoples money anyway he can. Especailly if he doesn't have to work for it, or pay it back.

    Those of us over 50
    Will probably get this:

    My Bad. His posts are A++++++

    #1807 3 years ago
    Quoted from captainadam_21:

    Or get a PPP loan like tens of thousands of other businesses

    That would require effort.
    Paperwork ... going to the bank.
    Ain’t nobody got time for that !

    If there’s any machines he has that anyone here on pinside are interested in they should offer to purchase them from him.

    How many games does he have ?
    What’s a fair guesstimate of their total value ?

    What’s his next go fund me going to be for ? back to grandmas basement waterproofing issue due to The arcade closing ?
    the machines need to be stored there and
    might be water damaged. Please help a young man with health issues preserve pinball history!

    GoFundMe #6 is either gonna be “Save Gameseum from extinction” or “Support our Mega Gameseum re-opening”.

    #1809 3 years ago
    Quoted from Electrocute:

    GoFundMe #6 is either gonna be “Save Gameseum from extinction” or “Support our Mega Gameseum re-opening”.

    I'd wager it will be for repairing the damage from the riots

    #1810 3 years ago
    Quoted from Electrocute:

    GoFundMe #6 is either gonna be “Save Gameseum from extinction” or “Support our Mega Gameseum re-opening”.

    His girlfriend/fiance seems to have been around for quite a while.
    I'm guessing next moochfest will be for the wedding.
    Which, if it happens, congratulations Steven!
    But pay for it yourself, and please wear some real pants!

    #1811 3 years ago

    I was thinking maybe a good cause for him eventually could be a GOfundMe to pay his income taxes to IRS .... after all there has been a prosperous year with thousands coming in per weekend not to mention all of the GOfundME $ he has raised

    #1812 3 years ago

    GoFundMe #7 and #8 would be the wedding and the honeymoon. And yes, there will be donation jar at the reception.

    He needs to make sure that there is a pre-nump. You don't want her to leave with that Spacelab.

    #1814 3 years ago

    Wasn’t my little pony on the schedule?

    #1815 3 years ago

    I thought there were four GoFundMe's.

    1. The sump pump incident.
    2 . Gameseum start up.
    3. The sick dog.
    4 . Gameseum bail out.

    Am I missing one ?

    I think that’s it.

    100 percent honeymoon/wedding coming next year.

    It must be addictive getting free money. Hard to blame him, every single one of these campaigns have resulted in free money.

    #1817 3 years ago

    You left out the coffee cup.

    #1818 3 years ago
    Quoted from Electrocute:

    ?

    #1819 3 years ago

    It wasn’t an actual GoFundMe but played out as one.

    #1820 3 years ago

    I honestly don't remember a coffee cup incident.

    Stevie has bragged numerous times that he has never sold a game. So you can bet, he will eat grass clippings before he ever lets one go. He's all hat, no cattle.

    #1823 3 years ago

    The landfills are better off if he keeps them. Maybe invest in a trash compactor if he runs out space.

    Did he have one for when he was stuck by a car ?

    Quoted from 1974DeltaQueen:

    I think it was called #arcademoochfailsatfrogger

    #1826 3 years ago

    Likely a Morgan and Morgan moment, “for the money”, or a Dan Newlin got me $300k. Should see him in commercials soon. Maybe on a billboard!

    #1827 3 years ago

    Steve instead of another gofundme why not do a special covi-19, $19.00 all day pass gift certificate? This way everyone would get something for their money. ///////////////////
    Author

    Gameseum: Mega-Arcade & Museum - Play Pinball, Arcade, and Consoles (poster of comment) We've always had gift cards, and they have been selling here and there, but many have only wanted to donate, especially with the future unclear and when they can visit next being an unknown. Also wouldn't do the "$19 COVID-19" thing as I think that is in poor taste... don't want to profit off of the virus in any way, the fundraising is different. I appreciate the suggestion though

    #1828 3 years ago
    Quoted from TecumsehPlissken:

    don't want to profit off of the virus in any way,

    Wait...what???? His fundraising campaigns are nothing but profit. There is no exchange of goods or services on his part.

    So he is already profiting off the virus 100% for each donation made. But he “doesn’t want to profit off the virus in any way.”

    * See foot in mouth reference in previous post.

    Hey Steve....

    #1830 3 years ago

    well its like he said... the fund raising is different , so there's that

    #1831 3 years ago

    Steven , please come back . People are talking about you and they have it all wrong ...

    Let me know when he starts the go fund me to fix his teeth. I might even donate to that one. I cringe every time I see a picture of him with that big smiling grin of his.

    #1833 3 years ago

    "but many have only wanted to donate"

    Then just buy a gift certificate and never us it! That way 99.5% goes to Gameseum, less postage and printing cost of the gift certificate.

    #1834 3 years ago
    Quoted from midniight:

    Steven , please come back . People are talking about you and they have it all wrong ...

    I second that. Come back and set things straight.

    My wife misses you Stephen.....

    Yupp, Money for nothing!!

    #1838 3 years ago

    I don’t want this to seem like I’m bashing Todd Tuckey, because I’m not.

    Seeing Otaku in the TNT videos - I have to turn them off. Knowing what he’s done to our community and all.

    #1839 3 years ago

    Otaku will not be back as I'm sure he has voluntarily inactivated his account the 3 allotted times allowed before it's perm.

    #1840 3 years ago

    Well, he just needs a new name. What would be appropriate?

    #1841 3 years ago

    #1842 3 years ago

    Forget Otaku....It's that Xexpinball guy I miss....oh, wait.

    Mooch is one of my favorite English words.

    It just sounds exactly right!

    #1846 3 years ago

    “Hate asking for help” doesn’t mean shit unless it stops you from doing so.

    He couldn't get any decent chicks if he was locked up in a henhouse!

    #1850 3 years ago

    I heard the massage parlor next door to him which was busted for illicit activity the other year has agreed to do a fundraiser for him under the headline "Jerks for Jerks". They are still operating at 17 North State Street if you want to help his cause. (Gameseum is at 27 N. State)

    You buy a $55 combo pass for 1 hour (and not a minute more!), and you start at 17 N. State. Once you are done there, then head down to Gameseum to use the remaining 56 minutes of your pass.
