Black This Out Moneybomb Beta Launch!

We are sick of your lies and repeated attempts to dismiss Ron Paul as a 2012 GOP Frontrunner. The media BLACKOUT immediately after the 2012 Ames Straw Poll proves just how far the media will go to suppress the message of freedom. This is the last straw.

We will not let you dictate who we should vote for. This October 19th will go down as one of the greatest grassroots donation efforts in history. We will do it WITHOUT You.


I don't care for this at all. Besides the bad grammar (ending a sentence with a preposition), improper capitalization (Frontrunner), and odd usage of all caps (BLACKOUT, WITHOUT), it just sounds really amateur.
 
Great news. When I started with a facebook account 4 days ago, there was a website for this money bomb and 57 people were attending. Now it is up to 368 and rising. I send out around 300 invites a day. Here is the page: http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=224265770952480. Make sure you go over there and click attend too.

I adore the new BlackThisOUt website!!! Kudos!!!! A+++++ work. I will be sending out that link to everyone I can too. lol...In only 3 days I have
so many friends I can't keep track. I get about 50 new Ron Paul friends a day.

I will continue to work on this. I will push it more right now and see how many attendees I can get.

Oh, I can feel this. This is going to freakin' huge!!!!!!

It is sooo early and we have people already getting excited!! I know I am.

Go Ron Go!!!!!

Try pushing them here:

Since it looks like you maybe trying to hijack this and suggesting to others that the day may be moved to Nov 5th. We were also going to hold off promoting this until the Constitution moneybomb was over.
 
What are you talking about? Nov 5th? Huh? This is for the Moneybomb on Oct. 19th. WTF are you talking about?

Hijack it?

HUH???

Since when is supporting Ron hijacking anything?

I didn't create either website. I am simply pushing the moneybomb that people started.

Are you Awaken America? A post made by them yesterday:

If we need to, we can push this back to November 5th, but hopefull no later because there aren't any significant days (that I know of) after 11-5 that won't interfere with Christmas shopping (nobody will be able to afford a moneybomb after Thanksgiving). Post on my Awaken America page if you think it should be moved back or if we should continue with this date (I like this date, but Nov 5 does have some nostalgia attached to it).

If you are not Awaken America sorry for the confusion. But it appears they are thinking about moving the date, which would really f@#k things up. Therefore "hijacking".
 
I don't know who Awaken America is. I am not moving any date, that would be insane.

Moreover, the 5th of November is Guy Fawkes day and the day some group called anon or something, is planning on tearing facebook down.

I was against using the 5th of November last time around and I wouldn't be for it this time.

As far as that facebook page goes, the other one, that was up before this one was posted, already has dozens of people on fb promoting it. I know, because I have been working for days trying to get it pushed.

I haven't seen anyone on here doing anything except saying they want the money bombs to be a big success, and I happen to know it takes hard work. I tried for a long time to get people to help me actually promote these things but I didn't get one bit of help. I tried to do work on the Sept. 17th one, but I was yelled at and attacked and for a while they wouldn't change the ronpaulwins thing to have only one date on it. I know I can't promote a money bomb that is advertised as an end of quarter push. I don't like to get yelled at. I decided to help promote this one instead. And since I can't find anyone else who wants to help I am not going to sit around here and wait for people to act. I support Ron Paul. It takes a long time to promote a money bomb and so I am doing the work. For me that means sitting around for hours sending out requests for people to spread the word about this money bomb. And so far, in 4 days, the attendees has moved from 57 to 369 now. I sent out invitations to over 50 people to that event today. In the past half hour that is.

I just thought it would be nice to share some victory.

No, I'll vouch for her. She is a friend of mine and was quite active in the '07-'08 campaign. :)
 
^Awesome! To be safe please promote this one, http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=181997088537471 we are going to go all out after the Constitution moneybomb and the site is out of beta. But if you want to take action now please go ahead! We love your type of go get em attitude.

There is also an official Black This Out an page: http://www.facebook.com/BlackThisOut

I am a little worried that the other person is thinking about changing the date, when we have already decided on the 19th of Oct.

Best case is we have two event pages.

Which group is planning on changing the date? I already have 50 people who have offered to help spread that facebook page and they are already spreading it to others. So far, I have had 10 requests to me for that event! lol. So, I know it is spreading like wildfire. What do I do now?
 
I will push the other page from here on out, but that is really going to hurt. Are you sure they are trying to change the date? B

Do you have any reason to belive that this page http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=224265770952480 is in the hands of the Awaken America people?

The group you just linked too may be planning to change the date. From what I get from their posts.

If you look at who created the event
Created By Awaken America

The one I posted to is the "official" one.

Are you sure they are trying to change the date? I have already gotten so many people pushing the first one. UGH!! It would really be horrible if they do.
 
Alright, I will try to use the new page, but can you put up a nice picture? The other page is much better with that pic attached to it.
 
Picture up. Like I said we were holding off until the launch but fire away!
 
Great! The new pic is terrific.

Now, can you please add the line The Ron Paul Money Bomb to Surpass all other Moneybombs! Or something like that. That title was really catchy. I am not saying to change the title, but add that phrase so people think it is all the same thing. What can they do, sue you for using a phrase? I will start pushing everyone over there now. I promise.
 
We are currently at 17 attending. I will double that and more by the end of the night.
 
Why are there 2 separate Facebook pages?

http://www.facebook.com/BlackThisOut

Do we really need two? I am a Facebook noob, so I may not be understanding. Would you please explain, ItsTime?

One is a regular facebook page http://www.facebook.com/BlackThisOut the other is an "event" page (where you rsvp for the moneybomb) http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=181997088537471 created by the regular facebook page .

Good suggestion and done.
 
My problem is people are confused. They search for the moneybomb so they can attend, don't see an attend button, and leave. Could you change the other page to something like Money Bomb event page or something generic. I mean, I know that is a pathetic title, but you know what I am suggesting. Whatever you are trying to do with the regular page, it could have a different name, right?
