This is an excellent cause to support those who gave much for their country and often times the world. I've moved this to PlanetSide 2 Discussion to get greater visibility.

If you are thinking about posting your lame political message in this thread think twice - it will not be tolerated. Infractions will be handed out and posts deleted. This thread is about raising money for wounded veterans - not commenting on world and US policy.

We have a forum for that.

I added the direct links to the donation page, and the T-Shirt page as well. We should have dog tags up really soon.

Although this doesn't concern my military, I can always appreciate charity events.
Too bad I already have my 3 characters developed on my SOE account. But who knows, I might consider making an additional SOE account for this.

Oh I know it is, I wouldn't be deleting a character with SC unlocks to roll for this if it wasn't

All 3 of my chars are on Waterson, but neither my TR nor VS see much action.

Re: GamePocalypse a Wounded Warrior Event


I created a second SOE account for this myself. Can't wait!

I am so there. These men and women are finally coming home after a decade of war. They need our help now.

Re: GamePocalypse a Wounded Warrior Event


i think it´s a good thing to do charity events in ps2!

hope, i´m not risking an infriction when i suggest to support some other charity next time, that wouldn´t spawn political discussions like this.
the politicians try to demonize egoshooters where they can, and making a connection to real war - even in a charity way - may be fueling the fire.
but nobody would argue against charity events for natural desaster fonds as an example.
none the less, using ps2 for charity is a good decision! great idea!

This is my final warning. Temporary bans will be issued from here on out to people whom would rather debate the charity than just move on.

If you don't like the charity don't participate there are plenty of other threads to read.

There is an option if you really want to debate it, and it's in this location.

Call it "Censorship" if you want to. Your right to free speech is not guaranteed on a private internet forum.

I served in military, but myself never participated in any actual combat. However my family has at least one serviceman in each generation and my grand grandfather, along with my father did see some nasty things during their life, like WWII and Russian AFG and 2nd Chechen campaigns so, my respects to the peeps.


Though I doubt my timezone will allow me to participate.

Thumbs up Re: GamePocalypse a Wounded Warrior Event


I have so many family members in the military. The Air Force has been a part of me since well before even my father was born. The Wounded Warrior project is such an amazing cause. Supporting it by playing our favorite online games is such a kool idea. You can totally count me in. And you can bet I will be practically forcing my friends to take part in the fun too!

Re: GamePocalypse a Wounded Warrior Event


Hey guys! I'm European, but I'll support this definitely - because I know how traumatic (physically and psychically) this can be. I was sent with the 3rd contingent of the Bundeswehr to Afghanistan and got a graze shot, while my comrades got severaly injured. I still have a suddenly appearing panic problem and a post-traumatic stress syndrome with bad dreams and so called flashbacks.

And I know the hard it is for american soldiers to get support, after having offered their life for their country.

I mean, yes. War isn't anything someone can say it's good. But it is there. And sometimes, people decide to serve under the banner of their country, others do take bad decisions and others simply are obligated.

If you want to blame someone, blame your politicians. Blame the citizen for supporting it. But don't blame those, who were at war and camed back.

Seriously.
