No-one respond to Gamer's post please.

He has been warned for it.

This thread is to discuss and promote humanitarian charities ONLY.

No political or direct war discussion is allowed. Remember: Politics / Religion / Hot Topics are against our rules for a reason: It always results in bad feelings and flame wars.

Sorry guys if lost in translation. My point was not against individuals -no bad feelings to anyone and do not want flame wars-was only about this humanitarian charities. I was a moderator myself once know the limit. I just asked why so strong charity now. A we know this war is political as well as other wars. I think this charity is not backed by Matrix only for info purpose. Regards.

Need clarification on the bold and italic text in the quote above. Is this just for this thread?

Is "direct war discussion" in reference to just the current Russian-Ukrainian war?

Ukraine’s biggest zoo is caught in the crossfire, how are the animals coping?

Charity is also for Animals.

Sorry guys my last post in this topic. ;)

WarChild that SI games supports was critized by English about banning Russian&Belarus teams from European competitions permanently. They question why Saudi's represented in game about Yemen. Accused about PR. Ukraine is also banned but in the game for competitions. It was the first time I see this "mini crusade" in this game. Note: crusade here not in religious terms for moderators.

Glad I help you. We don't have different opinions but after seeing Syrian&Afghan immigrants thrown I don't have good intentions for Nato. See my post: https://www.matrixgames.com/forums/view ... 0&start=20
Putin given this power in Syria resulted it. Anyway I hope immigrants safely arrive to your home country. Regards

Lets try to keep this topic razor focused on charitable events and drives and avoid memes and talk of crusades, etc.

Discussions about active and "hot" current events never end well.

Thanks.
Most of this thread appears to be spam for buying games, not donations to Charitable Events.

Many people around the world want to help Ukraine, and scammers have sprung up to take advantage of them.
https://www.usatoday.com/story/money/20 ... 376989002/

This thread should be shut down and the Original Poster warned.

For a real Charitable Cause, donate to:
Text UKRAINE to 80100 to make a one-time donation of $10 to UNICEF.
Text UKRAINE to 25383 to make a one-time donation of $25 to the International Rescue Committee.
Text UKRAINE to 52000 to make a one-time donation of $10 to The Salvation Army National Corporation.

It's that easy, and no scams.

Thank you. I had a suspect this troll going in agenda. Not answering direct questions. Promoting gaming sites and not polite and trying to be populist in answers. I should be more experienced but honestly also Matrix moderators fall to it.

These events related to video games and humanitarian causes have a limited lifespan, then you can always give directly to humanitarian associations.

I like video games so I support the general gaming industry.
All the video games platforms I mentioned are secure platforms from personal experience.
You can buy some of the Matrix/Slitherine Games on Steam, GOG or EpicGames.

But your attitude doesn't promote trust in wargaming more likely damaging reputation. Remember Conditerri was a mercenary only force but what was needed was a trust back in times of medieval. I'll look at your posts.

But we were talking about war not Charles de Gaulle collection of animals. Oh my :D
I suspect France needs more anarchists in this forum. Ageod forum was best about discussions.

Right.

I'm locking this since we seemingly cannot stay focused on charitable fundraising.

Warnings have and will be given out to those who caused this thread to derail.
