Lol told everyone, he has time to play and post on forums and train etc but no time to upload? You haven't been scammed but he has screwed you over promising a bid that is never going to happen. Anyone who disagrees or did disagree with me when I first said this has so far been proved wrong by me and if you wish to say there is going to be a video we'll wait and see but I can assure you it's been like 2 months since he said he's done the video and it takes 5mins tops to upload it an give out a URL. I've seen him online since countless times for 30mins or so a time this is why if I donate to charity I just do it, I don't support people who do it for more credibility within a text based game and then screw people over lol..
I'm riding the entire of Britain next august for MND, Macmillan and Scouts, and every intention of doing it, no matter the weather, circumstances, providing im unable to ride my bike, I will be doing it, full stop.
It's a disgrace to the charity not actually doing what your sponsored for.
I was going to use JustGiving for my charity bike ride, but they are unable to give to three charities and it all goes through straight away.
Were-as we have 2 official accounts it will be going to with 2 separate accountants and will be presenting each charity with a cheque for X amount.
This is a disgrace to cancer research. I'm glad he chose justgiving though as at least every penny went to cancer research.
The video will be filmed on Saturday 25th August 2012 and uploaded to You Tube as soon as it is done.
Ok folks.....
Still not heard from Guinness Book of World Records so this will happen on Saturday 22nd September wether I hear from them or not.
That date is now DEFINITE as I'm not going to wait around for them forever. Plus...i'm hungry
Update;
This has now been done. I need to edit the video a little first as im having trouble uploading to YouTube (never done it before) so will post as soon as it is done.
Thanks!
So you claim the reason your video has taken nearly 7 weeks to upload on that you've never used youtube before? There's video's on Youtube on how to upload, it's on Wikihow. I'm sure that's a lie unless you have an IQ of 6, which you claim you do not have in the Forums daily.
Also you say that you haven't heard from Guinness World Records, i've contacted Guinness World Records myself to check this out as such. They said they don't have the information, although they would not support such a 'record' as this as it's extremely dangerous and not possible without serious damage.
Just be happy he didn't take the cash for himself, it went to cancer research.
heard he was having some real life issues while the pet noob competition. Daisy talked to him briefly from what I understand but dont know the details. Kept going inactive for long periods of times last couple months.

My issue is that im rammed in RL with work. The vid is sitting unedited on my desktop comp at home. I havent been home for more than a few minutes at a time in the last few months and when i am there, im with my kids who i only get to see once a week anyway.
It will be done. Im a lot of things, but i dont lie.
If anyone wishes to take legal action against me or cancer research uk as stated elsewhere, then mail me your address and i will send you my personal information to enable you to do so as well as informing the press.
However, if someone would like to edit the thing (which was the original issue - i didnt know how then didnt have time to teach myself), then i am more than willing to send you the cd-rom.
May i point out though that ALL funds went to a worthwhole charity. I did not see a penny so for those of you that think i scammed RL cash, you need to get a life.
And just to show how little time i have...i am typing this in between serving customers in my pub.
All anyone needs to see is the tramps pants being cooked in the curry and you eating some.
Surely this is harder to do than to post a video on YouTube especially for such a clever guy like you.
Didn't you think this through properly.
1 find some tramps pants.
2 eat them on film
3 upload to YouTube.
We all know it only takes 10 mins to upload a clip.
Must be the busiest pub in recession struck Britain. I've never seen a pub that busy midweek. Mind you not all pubs have such a charming and charismatic landlord.
I just will never understand how giving selflessly to a charity could even remotely be considered scamming.
All funds go to the cancer research organization chosen by Lonestar.
If I remember correctly when donating, Gift Aid is for tax purposes. It didn't apply to me, because I live in the U.S.
It's just so disappointing to see the bitterness posted by a few in a thread for such a good cause. Certain residents just don't understand the concept of giving without needing to receive in return (especially with a RIGHT NOW attitude), I guess.

Gift aid is a tax break for charitable donations.....
And tony, no...its not rammed which is why after finishing doing my two daytime jobs i have to go and stand behind the bar. If i were to pay someone it wouldnt be worth opening the doors.
Gift Aid just means the charity gets circa 20% extra on top of what you donate. Nobody got scammed out of their cash...It all went to Cancer research.
I do find it very hard to believe that you don't know how to upload a video to YouTube but just in case, here is a guide that should explain it clearly-
http://www.wikihow.com/Upload-a-Video-to-YouTube
I also find it hard to believe that in the past 3 months or whatever it is, you didn't have ten minutes to Google that yourself and upload it....I know that had I done this, getting the video online as promised would have been a priority. If I take people's money, even for a good cause, I would be making sure I uphold my end of the bargain. Hopefully you will upload it soon and regain a little credibility....
I know for a fact Lonestar wasn't getting a penny of the donations it was all going to charity.. and i read up on gift aid before i selected it, they give extra to the charities and they receive a VERY small part of it themselves (gift aid, not donation) which is fair enough..
Like said above ^ Ok not so much a "scam" because he didn't take any of the money but the fact as promised a video of him "eating pants for cancer" blah blah blah and it's just been dragged out this long is just stupid, there is no excuse what so ever for taking such long to do a quite simple task, don't know how to upload a video to youtube? i'v never done it, but it would take me 10 minutes maximum to find out, you said about hadn't editing the video, have you got no friends? not 1 person knows a thing or 2 about editing that you can stick the video on a memorystick (will take 1 minute of the 2 you have a home apparently) and ask them to do you a favor, or why not pay someone to do it? I actually just checked, fiver.com have tonnes of people that will edit the video for you within a day for a fiver.. ($5) not even £5..
You've only been inactive for 20 odd days the rest of the time you've always been on and off... hell the other month you was playing kiddie facebook apps, i know i sound like a stalker with that last bit but you posted on the Torn page quite a bit..
It is not very hard to do, you made a promise in which you've completely f**ked everyone over for... drummed up so much hype just to say nah.. i'm going to put it on hold for half a year actually... i mean you extended the original time by 1 month, it's taken you well over 2 months for an update just on the progress.. So i take it another 3 months to edit the video and upload it to youtube? sounds about right

Fair play to you, 3 jobs to feed your kids.
But 10 mins to upload c'mon man. You got people interested in this and all for a great cause, dont let those people down.
Send it to me if you want. I will edit and upload for free.
lonestar only has himself to blame for his reputation. but he cant help it. its the only way of life he knows. honesty does not exsist in his vocabulary. only knows how to deceive.

From what you've heard?! A deceiver?!
At the time you posted your second post you were still 1 day old.
Is it easy to cast stones from your glass house?
Bottom line is: charity is charity. You give not to get back. This would have been fun to see but who cares really? It was money raised for a good cause.
You should just hope that a day comes that you aren't a needy recipient and be thankful when it doesn't come.
and now the net is closing in on the scammer. to all you people who donated to lonestars scam of eating pants for cancer. its official. he cant hack the questions about it all. there is no vidio and never was. i beg of you all to next time save your money. we can all put hard earned cash to better use than feeding lonestars deceiving habits.
and by the way gypsytears i may be young but i can f**king read previous posts on the subject so i suggest you go suck your own egg.
or maybe lonestar can use that for his next money making scheme. suck eggs for some kind of charity or cause. yep his own.
all any of us want is for him to fullfill his pledge and show the vidio and prove that he aint
just some scamming dude.
i mean com on all you folk out there. lonestars even had torn fans offer to upload it for him as he now claims he dont know how to upload it himself and he aint took them up on the offer. cause he cant.
JUST ONE BID SCAM
