Quemist	Posted - 2011.01.13 19:53:00 - [1] Edited by: Quemist on 13/01/2011 19:54:08 I was under the impression that CCP ran charities for flood victims. They did for Pakistan. Is it because Islamic and dark skinned dominated countries are special and because Australia is largely white they don't get charity? Where is Plex for Australia? I think that's a fair question.

You made it an unfair one by playing the reverse discrimination card.

Joe SMASH You Got A Purty Mouth	Posted - 2011.01.13 20:00:00 - [4] 0/10 Leave race out of it and you will garner better replies. Your post as worded is blatant trolling. ----------------------------------- More stuff goes here.

I think that's a fair question. Kindly just shut up, playing the reverse race card is pathetic. ------------------------------------------------ You either need a punch up the throat or a good shag. Nobody round here is offering the second one therefore your choices are limited!

TimMc Brutal Deliverance Extreme Prejudice.	Posted - 2011.01.13 20:09:00 - [7] 0/10 Australia is not a poor country, and the floods didn't bury half the country.

Asurymen	Posted - 2011.01.13 20:11:00 - [9] Quite frankly Quemist, you disgust me for playing the race card. I was going to donate to a flood fund, but I think I'll buy a PLEX for myself instead.

AUS is considered a rich "first world" country that can generally afford to pay for its own emergency aid. (see map) Pakistan is considered a poor "third world" country and on top of that has a sub-par government that can barely control its border regions and some consider it a failed state. So there is a big gap in terms of capability when responding to natural disasters, first world countries being far more capable and hence not really needed aid unless they expressly ask for it.

CCP Adida C C P C C P Alliance	Posted - 2011.01.13 20:16:00 - [11] Locked not because of the suggestion but mostly because of the tone of the post. If you have a suggestion for us in regards of charities please ensure that your post is constructive and not destructive. Adida Community Rep CCP Hf, EVE Online

Quemist	Posted - 2011.01.13 20:22:00 - [12] Originally by: CCP Adida Edited by: CCP Adida on 13/01/2011 20:18:52 Unlocked post because the offensive material has been removed. Also edited/removed posts directed toward the offensive material. Thanks, I'm not really sure why it was offensive. I was looking for a reason.
Joe SMASH You Got A Purty Mouth	Posted - 2011.01.13 20:24:00 - [13] Originally by: Quemist Thanks, I'm not really sure why it was offensive. Really.... ? ----------------------------------- More stuff goes here.
Quemist	Posted - 2011.01.13 20:25:00 - [14] Originally by: Joe SMASH Originally by: Quemist Thanks, I'm not really sure why it was offensive. Really.... ? No, but apparently people were. Doesn't really matter. Post is fixed now. I can sort of see actually that people are sensitive.
Caldari Citizen2323256	Posted - 2011.01.13 20:30:00 - [15] Edited by: Caldari Citizen2323256 on 13/01/2011 20:31:31 Tragic as it may be it needs to be put in perspective. There are what now? A dozen dead people? Compared to 100x that many who died in Pakistan. Then compare the countries. Australia is not exactly considered a third world country. I hope you're next going to be a keen supporter for Plex for Brazil? At least 360 people died near Rio due to flooding very recently. Brazil is a poorer and less developed country than Australia too. Sadly this thread will just open the door for the rest of the closet bigots to spout their drivel.

I don't expect a hyper sensitive political correct liberal like yourself to even open your mind to the possibility that I may have relatives affected by the floods. And just jump to the conclusion that I'm racist because I pointed out peculiarities with the way the world deems certain people charity worthy and others not.

Stegas Tyrano GREY COUNCIL	Posted - 2011.01.13 20:39:00 - [18] 12 people died, Cry me a river ..oh wait

And just jump to the conclusion that I'm racist because I pointed out peculiarities with the way the world deems certain people charity worthy and others not. Hyper sensitive political correct liberal? That's new. I think what you really want to say is "you ***** mother**er n-word loving homosexual" and assorted other expletives. The fact you stoop to a thinly veiled insult speaks volumes about you. The fact you use having relatives there as an excuse makes it that much worse. So when will you be promoting Plex for Brazil? How about Sri Lanka? There too 300,000 people have lost their homes due to flooding. Poor white people, got it so tough huh? You need to stop this. It's demeaning to everybody, and that includes the people who are also having problems in Australia.
Zhim'Fufu	Posted - 2011.01.13 20:41:00 - [20] This is why rich people always tend to donate to charities on the anon. Once the word gets out you helped a little kid with cancer every grifter in the area will haul their 'sick' kids up on your doorstep looking for a handout even though they are perfectly able to help themselves.(to your money preferably)
Calfis Amarr F.R.E.E. Explorer The Initiative.	Posted - 2011.01.13 20:43:00 - [21] Originally by: Quemist the way the world deems certain people charity worthy and others not. Perhaps if people in our parts of the world were less concerned with the next iPhone and more concerned with acquiring enough food to survive we may be eligible for aid as well.
Quemist	Posted - 2011.01.13 20:44:00 - [22] I actually said hyper sensitive because you guys are jumping down my throat, politically correct because I accidentally brought up race and that's a no no for pc people and liberals are pc geez
Joe SMASH You Got A Purty Mouth	Posted - 2011.01.13 20:44:00 - [23] Originally by: Quemist I don't expect a hyper sensitive political correct liberal like yourself to even open your mind... THIS is why you are offensive. THIS is why you fail. ----------------------------------- More stuff goes here.

roastduck Gallente MerTeK	Posted - 2011.01.13 20:47:00 - [25] No good will come of this thread. Can we just get it locked and be done with it?
Zhim'Fufu	Posted - 2011.01.13 20:49:00 - [26] Originally by: roastduck No good will come of this thread. Can we just get it locked and be done with it? Lots of good will come from it. At least one benefit is we get to point and laugh at the op.
Peter XZ Gallente	Posted - 2011.01.13 20:49:00 - [27] I live in Australia and my family have been very affected by the floods, but have a plex-for-a-third-world country, not Australia. We are really well organised here with aid etc, no one will starve, everyone will somehow get a roof over their heads in the coming weeks of cleaning up, so don't worry. Where-as 3rd world countries; homeless ppl would be in much more life-threatening danger then here. BTW Noticed Jita population lower then usual in Australian "Eve peaktime" (around the time of DT), I seem to think many, many Queenslanders used to play this game before the flood. Removed. Please keep your EVE signature related to your EVE persona or content directly related to Eve Online. Spitfire
Forum Guy	Posted - 2011.01.13 20:51:00 - [28] Actually I think the attitute of they have plenty of money let them get on with it quite appalling. Have they got the money, a lot of countries that are supposed to have the money are heavily in debt at the moment. So some people think that the so called richer countries should keep bailing out the poorer ones without anything in return when it happens to them. Well if that's the case I hope they wisen up and consider themselves next time.

I still can't fathom why my 'PLEX for bumpers' drive never got off the ground, the bad reception was putting millions of people in mortal danger!!! Also, this isn't the '80s... We don't use 1st/3rd world denomination anymore, try developing and industrialized instead. And even that is seeming dated.
