then how about you stop supporting the politicians and buisnesses that make them happen? instead of hating and being against those who are being forced to fight and die for it.

THEY arent the ones choosing to fight a war, they chose to be resposnible for protecting the rights and freedoms of the people of the US.

so sick of blindness when it comes to "wars" the solders are just the tool, you rant and rage about them yet you keep bending over for the politicans and buisness that are causing the wars? blind much?

You can't fix stupid, unfortunately. There will always be people like this.

So by that logic, we shouldn't support firefighters who get wounded while doing their duty. Hey, they knew the risks, nobody forced them to be a firefighter, they chose to be one.

Firefighters in germany are in the "Feuerwehr-Unfallkasse" thats a mandatory, paid by the country, insurance.

After seeing this and getting worked up by an *****. I'm for this more than before. Bad Karma1775 PM if you need help getting in contact with some Charities. The DAV is who I normally work with for my volonteer stuff. I might be able to halp put together a proposal to present to PGI.

Well before this gets locked.....

We all know we got lied into crap (Iraq).... and history since Alexander the Great, Ghenkis Kahn, The Indian Mughal Empire and onward showed us what a waste of time Afghanistan is.

Dosen't mean you can't have compassion for people who may never be able to work a job again or function fully in society.

But screw all the other firefighters from all the other countries who volunteered for it, right?

I dont want to support any real war!
Some of then were based on lies (Weapons of mass destruction anyone?), most were not needed.

Lets tell you about Afghanistan, the german Bundeswehr were there, building bridges, schools and wells.
Then they were talked into taking part as fighting force, at this moment the first coffins came home ....
Whats with the land? 20 years long the russians tried it, then the us, then the euros ....
I think a few more wells and schools would helped them and us more then this ****.

Thats a clear NO from me!

Huge Troll and I did not know that members of the hate group Westboro Baptist Church would be playing MWO. Learn something new everyday. I'll likely see you on the opposite side of your next protest.

Unless WBC has a German branch, he's just a regular misguided fool.

Protect them from the weapons of mass destruction in iraq?

To all the vets:
My best wishes to you. You were used, you were abused and you are the ones that pay for it, not the ones that should pay.
Thats not ok.

There is probably a good reason German troops were delegated to nation building programs...

PGI Devs being a canadian company might create obstacles with how they support Wounded Warrior.

Attack the individual poster, not the country they are from. I'm pretty certain there are at least a few other Germans who would support wounded veterans.

Ask the Devs #34

grayson marik: You said, "Private matches will be implemented, but not in a way players are probably thinking. We are still working out ways to make this feasible. No ETA." Have we ( the other league/tournament creators and me) wasted our time creating the stuff we created?

A: We plan to create and host a variety of tournaments, challenges, and official MWO league. At this time we are not sanctioning or encouraging players to create independent leagues.

From the latest Ask the Devs, this could be why you haven't got a timely response. Which is too bad because yours is a worthy cause.

That and because Garth was mentioning lately how many hundreds of emails he gets a day.

Count me in, I'm sure many other current / past veterans will back you up on this one, right Murphys??? lol

DAMN SKIPPY, BROTHER!

@OP: I think it's safe to speak for all my brothers-in-arms that make up Murphy's Law (a military only gaming group) and openly support this or any other event that supports all current and former military personnel from any and all allied nations.

So much off-topic nonsense about an obvious troll who should be banned by now.
OT:
This kind of thing would be really great for MWO, if you think you could get enough donations to make up for the 4k you're planning on spending on it (e.g., you need >4k to make it worth it, otherwise you could just make a donation yourself).

Try to be more diplomatic however; PGI has a lot on their plate and in their inbox and there are doubtless legal issues as well. Swearing is probably counterproductive, and respect gets respect.

The military is not even close to the spending used on welfare. If you have enough energy to complain about military spending, what you really should be targeting is your student loan programs, low-income housing, and establishments like the red-cross.

Not according to: http://www.usgovernm...get_2012_4.html

But it seems like derailing the OP to try and make political points on this subject (this being a video game forum and all that...)

[Evilbunny]

I know many in the German Navy who more than competant in their jobs. So please try to be the bigger person. His apology is too to matter to me atleast. Lets get back to showing some support to guys who really need it.

[Helmer]

As this has, for some strange reason, turned into a trolling thread of the OP, we'll be shutting this one down.


My apologies to the OP.

IGP, the publisher, handles most of the PR and would be the proper individuals to contact about this. If you would, please email support@mwomercs.com or you could also try and contact them via the http://infinitegamep....com/contact-us webpage.

As someone who , just yesterday, signed a deal to support House of Heroes here at Fort Benning, I salute your efforts.
Having contacted IGP in the past about a Childs Play Charity event, I know IGP is very interested in efforts like this.



Cheers.
