Quickstart
You get loonies (short for Dubloon) by clicking on and donating to any nonprofit team listed below. You donate directly to the nonprofits PayPal account. You get 1 loony for every 25 cents you donate.
Unlike Gofundme or other sites, the Atlanta Volunteers does not charge fees, add conditions or hold your donation.
All donations are listed and verified on the public ledger.

"Get Loony"
"Get Loony" when you donate, volunteer or perform skits. You can also get loony by treasure hunting or finding mermaids. Mermaids make you loony and then you give them cash. If you give them cash first, it is a tip and they have lured you to your doom. Mermaids can make whatever exchange rate and conditions for the exchange they want.
The most valuable type of treasure you can find at the Pirate Dive Bar is green sailor rated comedy that some people call "G" rated. This is a difficult hunt as it is mixed in with household goods & services, karaoke and sports bar skits, rides in boats or show cars, volunteer labor, discount coupons, admissions to events and meeting celebrities.
To find green sailor rated (pronounced rat-ted) everyone in the community can vote up or down to moderate a post. Votes change the moderation score. All posts start with a green sailor rating and a moderation score of zero. If the moderation score falls below zero the post is given a yellow "Landlubber" rating. If the post falls below -10 that pirate post is thrown overboard and the post disappears.
If you feel strongly about a post, give it as many upvotes or downvotes as you want. Each vote costs one loony and this is a great use of your reward points. The best use of reward points is to use the "bribe" widget found on every post to transfer loonies and messages directly to the person who created that post.
If you just read green posts with a moderation score above zero, you have just as good of a chance of avoiding something you don't like as you do riding the subway. You hope it is going to be good but you never know.
A green "sailor" post is also when anyone wants to exchange loonies for cash. They can use any price and quantity they want and then just keep the cash. This is like exchanging monopoly money for cash. It doesn't seem to make sense but you can do it. This type of loony exchange is a fun way and an excuse to "gift" cash to anyone and this is a green "Sailor" rating. We encourage all loony exchanges. Each exchange reduces the quantity of loonies randomly by about 15 to 25%. When the Pirate Dive Bar runs all the loonies out somebody will have to donate with PayPal to their favorite nonprofit to let the loonies back into the bar. Only PayPal donations create loonies.
All loonies can easily have their pedigree traced back to their birth at PayPal on the public ledger. The more you exchange an ever shrinking supply of loonies the sooner somebody has to donate through PayPal to keep the fun going.
The yellow landlubber posts represent lawful free speech that do not meet "G" standards. We frequently have skits performed in sports bars with cussing, drinking or smoking and these are examples of yellow landubber rated posts.
If in doubt, throw it out. You may not post any "For sale" advertisements in dollars. Loonies must be part of every exchange made. If somebody wanted to sell an old couch on here for $10 that is a post that should be down voted to make it disappear as loonies are not involved. If the post does not appear to be lawful free speech it should also be downvoted and removed.
Exchange loonies for unbelievable discounts, specials, upgrades and free items donated from businesses to our group of nonprofits and schools.
Exchange loonies for donated household goods, items, services, event tickets and anything donated by anyone. This includes donated "fund raising" labor for landscaping, car washing, dog walking and handyman services.
Exchange loonies for treasure maps to find rides in show cars, lunch with celebrities, backstage passes, boat rentals, scuba instruction, sailing and some very special adventure, surprises and treasure!
"Get Loony" by performing "fun raising skits" or competing in sports like softball, darts and pool. "Sea shanty Karaoke", "Flash mob Karaoke", "Pirate Initiation", "Karaoke Challenge Game" and "Feeding Mermaids at the Petting Zoo" are some of the hilarious "fun raising skits" you can do at sports bars, back yard parties and your board room before presentations or at conferences.
You can post requests for any type of treasure you seek.
