Debt Repaid

==A Debt Repaid==
Many in our guild weren't aware that early on in the formation of the guild, one member stepped up to return a 75 plat donation made when the guild hall was built. When the donor asked for repayment, Deaura quickly stepped up using her own personal funds to repay the individual. Using her own funds extremely depleted her assets down to just a few plat yet Deaura didn't hesitate to offer all she had to resolve this issue. The Guild officers met and decided that the guild would work in "semi-private" to earn the money which would someday retire the debt that Deaura so graciously took as her own. A sales crate was obtained and placed in the Guild Hall lobby and certain high value items that had been donated to the guild bank were chosen to be sold and our campaign to become debt free had begun!
When the first plat was generated from the sales crate, repayments to Deaura began (with at least two officers always aware of both the payments and balance remaining). At one point, negotiations were made between the guild and Deaura to retire some of the debt using Guild Bank rares (at the prime world market broker price) and the debt was reduced to 54 plat. At this point Deaura volunteered to release the remaining debt but the officers decided that we would prefer to continue with the "debt-free campaign" and we continued to sell assets while allowing the funds to build in the Guild sales crate.
It is our great pleasure to announce that we have finally earned the remaining 54 plat and as these pictures show, have repaid Deaura for her kindness and generosity in a final one time payment of 54 plat. This story shows just one of the many acts of generosity demonstrated by members throughout the guild. These actions make us proud, these actions are what make us a truly great guild.
This debt is now "REPAID IN FULL".
