You'll have to establish yourself a little before promoting, dear. It's in the rules.

I started a project with some atheist friends and I can't get if off the ground anywhere. I'm too poor to fund it myself and so I went to Indiegogo.com to help, I tried posting the link http://www.indiegogo.com/crosscountryatheistad but it go edited out. I've tried posting this everywhere on the internet and no one seems to even give a response, even a negative one would be something. I give up, there is no sense of community with atheists and I can't go back to being a Christian so I guess I'm just all alone in this world.

Yeah you should of perhaps read the rules before you posted that.

If you stick around and let people get to know you I have no doubt we will check it out, but if we gave free reign to every random newbie who came here to spam us with links we'd be knee deep in shit.

Don't take it personal.

I know, it's just that it doesn't work that way with Christians, and it's sad, but it's way easier to get help from them =(

It's not because of our religious views, it's because of the rules of the forum. I've been on a number of forums (on a number of different topics) and it's a fairly common rule.

That's because atheism isn't a club. We don't have church gatherings. We don't even have anything in common (necessarily) beyond the fact that we do not believe in gods.

The closest thing you'll get to an atheist community is a forum like this or a local chapter of the American Humanist Association (or the like).

For the most part, I don't think the majority of us feel the need for 'community' in the same way that Christians seem to.

Absolutely correct.

The first post a guy makes is an appeal for money? Really?

And he wonders why it got deleted...
