Rhivre TarNec Invisible Exchequer 576	Posted - 2013.11.14 10:54:00 - [31] - Quote CCP Falcon wrote: It's nice to see that despite the fact you're all a big pack of meanies in game, there's a really positive vibe when it comes to programs such as PLEX for GOOD. We're well aware of the horrible situation in the Philippines right now, and everyone who has been affected has our most sincere sympathies. The Community Team are currently discussing potential options for what we may be able to do to harness the good will of the EVE Community, and are liaising with other departments at CCP to look into the best option. While we can't promise anything at this stage, we're looking at the situation to see what, if anything, we can do to allow EVE Players to assist. Apologies for the delay with regards to responding to this, but there are a lot of hoops to jump through in terms of conforming with legality before we can proceed with any form of donations. Thank you for replying Mr Falcon! Super big bunnie huggles for you!

Bearing in mind the starvation/cholera/etc starts now, not later. Sooner the better. 2 plex if within the week. None if not. So you are a douche is what you are saying? Don't try to be this nice person and help those in need and then take it away if CCP doesn't have a thing set up right away.. What a joke.. Kill yourself and rid your stupidity of this world..

Be nice. Some of the forum goers are young and don't understand how life works . . . So they figure out what is "right" in their head, convince themselves of how smart they are, then spurge their new opinion all over an anonymous forum. There will always be ignorance and selfishness, and there is very little you can do to stop it, especially over he Internet. But there are also a lot of good people, and the Internet is a great way to coordinate their efforts. I've already donated, but I'd pledge two PLEX too. If half the player base did the same (players, not accounts) we'd raise over a million dollars. That's a LOT of fresh water. I am not an alt of Chribba.

The real drivers behind this idea are people with PLEX stacks, and PLEX traders hoping to profit on higher prices. It's nothing more. lol, the sheer amount of stupidity and fail in this statement is just comical XD Firstly even if this PLEX drive achieves the very high standards set by the last ones, the mass of PLEX gathered would not be massively significant in terms of in game economy. The Haiti drive raised an excellent >40,000 dollars for victims of the disaster, or 2290 PLEX over 16 days. In other word a just over 7% market share. There was no massive PLEX price increase as a result of the previous PLEX drives. Basic mathematics breaks your argument even without moral considerations. As for claiming charity contributors are paying with your money, that is simply bad logic. You did not pay in real money for the GTC used here, or in isk for the PLEX in game. Please understand that eve operates on a market economy, and other players have the right to spend money as they please also. Or are you claiming your right to cheap PLEX outweighs a disaster victimsGÇÖ right to basic amenities and medical care? I wonGÇÖt grace the more paranoid parts of your rant with a reasponse, lol. Do you also believe the moon landing was a hoax, that crop circles are caused by UFOs and that polio vaccination makes you sterile?

Amazing coincidence, and would have tied in nicely with the expansion. Think CCP are going to miss the ball here. They could have earned some brownie points, got publicity, helped people, and made a lot of players happy. Currently, my sentiment is disgust, and frustration. Hope it changes. Any colour you like.

If you got money why even bother with Plexes then? You talk a big game like almost every other internet person but in reality thats all it is.. You wouldn't give up your precious Plexes so you'll have some excuse same for your RL cash. I hear Friends is on sale cheap right now for "before black friday sale" its okay you can use that as your excuse for not having the funds to help..

The desire to help, through my chosen media (none of your business by the way) is there. No, i'm not going to show you receipts, etc to prove it. Desire to help should never be held up by legal impediments. That's as ****** as breaking someones ribs during cpr and getting sued for it. That's the reason for the good samaritan laws. When the players want to give, but CCP says "no, our gi-*****-normous legal team must pore over it first", and the players go on to say "well screw this", is that a bad showing on the part of the players or on the part of the company? Let me give and i shall give. Don't let me give and i shall give to someone else. End of the day; u mad? he mad.

When the US had hurricane Katrina where were the people from the Phillipines raising money to help us? Nowhere is where.

Bunny Joy Center for Advanced Studies Gallente Federation 1	Posted - 2013.11.15 02:48:00 - [58] - Quote The tragedy that has occured in the Philoppines is very sad and unfortunate, and the sheer magnitudeis terrifying. The world communoty should try to do all they can to help them, and all individuals who are able to help should hopefully contribute to the recovery effort. But, considering recent events with CCP, With any money raised by the kind and generous EVE community via PLEX sales, so as to help the Philippines, "How can we trust CCP that all the funds raised for this tragedy actually end up and get to the appropriate aid organizations?" CCP has shown that they are not trustworthy, have no integrity, are not transparent with the EVE community on matters that should be transparent, and they are willing to do anything to get money. Sadly, may I suggest that, if any individuals from the EVE community want to help the Philippines, that they find outside and more trustworthy organizations to use, so as to give their financial aid contribution.

Stray Pacis Warden's Ravens 1	Posted - 2013.11.15 03:06:00 - [60] - Quote hey people of eve, give tengu a break... i'm a filipino and he considers me as his ingame friend and i as well... and its just he was reminded of the plex for haiti drive that ccp did a few years back... i didnt even know about it and he just thought that putting it in the forum would be and excellent idea for people to be aware that ccp has this thing in which they support charities like this... its not in his intention of manipulating PLEX prices or ruining are game. CCP might have done it too even without tengus initial drive... its such a good thing for me that a thai not even a filipino long time player has thought about this and even used up his precious time to set this up... thanks you for your response on this matter and i would really be thankful if CCP would get through with this. and yes, you can donate to the red cross too in RL and i am thanking you now for the help you are giving my countrymen. thanks again and may you all have a wonderful evening... fly safe!
