Don't get me wrong, he does a lot of good with the FreePizzaDude stuff and he certainly posted some wholesome content, and I followed his journey of recovery occasionally. But MrPucket wasn't imgur and imgur wasn't MrPucket. I like imgur for it's anonymity and that everyone posts things that are flair to them - sometimes it's great, sometimes it terrible (in my opinion, but obviously not others...) And that's what makes imgur great, it's a melting pot of humanity - it's what should be sent into space as an update if that gold disc...!
What happened with MrPucket and imgur is between MrPucket and imgur HQ. He's gone now - lest we forget, just don't need to be reminded 24/7.
And if you hate imgur so much... Byyyyyyyye!!

Imgur should only be meme dumps and telling people this is not Facebook. Make imgur funny again.

But imjur isn't as diverse as one might seem. A lot gets mod censored.

After digging, it looks like something happened between him and imgur HQ staff, it blew out via imgur. One commentary really stuck with me:
hillarydufflebag
Was that he chose to make the issue public instead of resolving it with imgur. Not everything needs attention and drama etc.
hillarydufflebag
And while the commentar made a personal dig about mr pucket being an ex addict and thriving off the internet intention. It does make you
hillarydufflebag
Wonder. So in short, there was a blow out and instead of being adults he went nuclear, then left. Can't wait for the fans to spam my inbox.

I got a lot of hate for it, but I just feel giving away pizzas to people is the worst way of doing something charitable... ok, downvote away

BeccaZican
Hey nonprofit degree here, not being a dick but genuinely curious why you feel that way
DeviatedPrevert
1) because there is so much wasted money with pizza ... you are paying $10-15 for something that costs ~$2-3 to make at home and because
DeviatedPrevert
2) pizza is an extremely unhealthy food high in calories and low in nutrient density and tons of sodium
BeccaZican
For sure youre not wrong. However, some people can't cook or can't get to the store buy food or maybe just dont have the funds to treat /

The family to something other than peanut butter sandwiches. If you donate groceries without that being what the person wanted, that food /

3) I would much rather see someone pay a grocery bill, for example, or some other way to deliver healthy, staple items of food

Pizza is a cheap, hot, large meal that can serve many people and makes great leftovers for several meals. It may not be the most logical 1/
MezzedUp
food to give someone struggling, but its by far one of the best from the viewpoint of ease/use when weighed against cost.
BeccaZican
Easy to purchase for someone located elsewhere, is a convo starter that motivates other people, etc etc.
DeviatedPrevert
it would be better to just send someone the cash via paypal so they can order healthy food
MezzedUp
Yes... and no. not everyone has paypal, withdrawals are a pain unless your bank is connected, most stores dont accept it for payment* 1/
MezzedUp
unless you get the PayPal debit card and that takes time. A pizza is a phonecall and 20 minutes, no leaving home no accounts no nonsense.
