"It would still be against the TOS, so yes."
Ultimately that's a question to be directed to kickstarter who, as far as I can tell, has to sign off on the projects before they show up on the site. Regardless of the scruples of the mother, the site still approved this project.
"It wasn't to teach her anything except that her brothers are bullies and people will gladly pay to make them look like the douchebags her mother has no issue portraying them as."
... or to teach her the importance of putting together a really compelling story to attract investors.
"Unobtrusive flyers aren't the same thing as soliciting door-to-door. "
Wait, are you saying that twitter and facebook are door-to-door solicitations? It's far closer to putting up flyers everywhere.

Regardless of the scruples of the mother, the site still approved this project. KS does a minor sweep to see if the project meets guidelines, but we've seen what they've allowed through before. It has been linked elsewhere in these threads, but this comment really sums up all of the reasons this woman and this campaign shouldn't exist - http://www.reddit.com/r/Games/comments/1awnzx/so_you_know_that_kickstarter_for_the_girl_who/c91g8yn http://www.reddit.com/r/Games/comments/1awnzx/so_you_know_th...
- niggler 14y agoAfter seeing the other cases, I'm inclined to agree with your mentality, although I really would like to see more KS oversight or at least more options to flag what seems to be a violation of TOS
