It has to be clear from the start that when you donate money to those projects the money will be spent and the project might fail anyway. People have been using Kickstarter as a pre-order site which I think is not ideal in many cases. The option to preorder should be different from supporting a project in general, but Kickstarter sadly doesn&apos;t offer that kind of separation.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Kickstarter project raised $196K and stopped responding</title><url>http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/crypteks/crypteks-usbtm-encrypted-and-lockable-usb-solution/comments</url><text></text></story>
