blinKWhy doesn't he just get a job then, like everyone else? If you're a grown ass man and don't have $100 to buy a new psu there is something seriously wrong. I'd be truly embarrassed asking for $100 from a bunch of strangers. It's like going to the beach with a wrinkled pepsi cup asking for change. Powahs a nice guy but it doesn't make it right.aim-Knuckles_He's in school right now, don't make comments on people's lives that you don't know about.if you have the luxury of playing tf2 while in school, you can afford to get a job

Would've been nicer if he left a message here as well, not just Twitter.

Good luck Powah =)

Idk why everyone is so upset that powah is asking for donations???

You don't have to if you dont want to, if he wants it so bad and nobody donates he'll get a job or not have one.

Knuckles_etherLet this be motivation to get a job.

Also he has an unusual, australium scatter gun, australium sniper rifle, australium SMG and a max's head.

The majority of his backpack are gifts from stream viewers, he can't just sell that stuff.

Ok so the psu that people are donating for isn't a gift either??

Kinda dumb some people think they can get help through donations now just because of isomnia LAN fundraisers. "The community is donating thousands of dollars to players surely they will donate some to me too!!"

Not everyone is entitled to this kinda help so stop acting like it

Why are we vilifying someone in our community just for asking for a small monetary donation that is completely non-compulsory. As in we do not have to if we don't want to??????????'

Sorry some people get so offended at the concept of small acts of kindness lol

nothing's being entitled at all, like
it's literally asking for a small contribution to afford something that will allow him to keep doing what he loves to do (and what his 5691 followers on twitch at the very least enjoy watching him do), which for some fucked up reason people think that they have some sort of obligation to contribute, when anyone with a working brain knows that it's not the case

also the "seek a job" argument is really crazy because other than a handful of people here no one knows first-hand the job situation in brazil enough to think that just scoffing at someone and telling them to just get a job instead is magically gonna land them an internship in a company or something

It's just getting kind of ridiculous. Tip of the hats is one thing, it's going to a good cause. This is just enabling people to sit in their rooms all day playing video games and never getting a job. Never having to deal with the consequences of not working. I guess I just really don't agree with it. If he's capable of supporting himself, why shouldn't he? Hope he gets a job and buys an entirely brand new pc with the money!

Your first few jobs don't have to be your career.. Just something to keep you afloat until you work your way up. Go flip pizzas, make sandwiches, work in a super market.. I'm sure everyone would love to just stay home all day and play video games. I'm guessing most people would rather work than beg for donations. If he had some kind of physical ailment it'd be more understandable.

Monetary issues aside, if his system actually needed 700W buying the cheapest 700W wouldn't be a good idea.
If his system doesn't need 700W buying a lower wattage, but higher quality PSU would be a better idea.

Now, how much wattage does he actually need?
He's got an i5-750 and a GTX 560 according to his twitch profile. Now if that's not outdated and his computer has never caught fire, he has never used even close to 700W.

Just because you found 1 link proving your point doesn't mean it's automatically easier to get a job, a lot of other factors like education, past exp, and area matter too. I live in Baltimore which could be considered a successful city and it's still a pain in the ass to find a job here with past exp.
