Petition To Have S/E Add a Donation "Add-On" to PoL

I would gladly donate my monthly fees directly to the SE employees themsleves to help ease their burden. I will also be donating to the red cross and encourage all players who are able to do so.

We are also requesting that there be an "Add-On" to purchase titled "Donation to the Japanese Relief Fund" (or another appropriate name). The monies collected by this "Add-On" could be used entirely at the discretion of S/E to help their 'distressed' employees or Japan, as a whole.Signed,

If the servers stay closed until the end of April it may be a bit too late.

Is it that difficult for you to donate the equivalent of your monthly fee to the Red Cross? I don't see why Square-Enix should get into the philanthropy business to save you a few minute's effort.

Glad to see there are still people willing to help each other on this planet.

I would glady donate the amount i pay for all 3 of the accounts i pay for in my household to help the people in Japan.
I also think all of us need to realize just where FFXI came from. These people have lost homes, mothers, fathers, brothers, sisters, daughters, sons, husbands, wifes, aunts, uncles, cousins, grand parents and friends. Lets show them an outpouring of love and support from the USA and any other nation that is not going through such a horrific time.
In short "lets put ourselves in there shoes if just for a few moments".
I play with a lot of people from Japan and haven't heard from most of them. I am worried about my FFXI friends. My heart goes out to them and i hope they are all alright.

Someone once said: "Dont be glad its not us, Be sad that it is them, People all have feelings, You, Me, Everyone."

Because SE has already said Apr will not be billed. I will give that money to the Red Cross on my next payday. Everything is budgeted in my house. But would be nice to have another way in game to show support from the FFXI community. My son has suggested an in game item to be ordered like the add ons. That I also could support a few extra dollors will not totally break my budget.

If SE can do anything that might encourage someone to donate then it's a bonus, if not they probably weren't going to give anyway but that's entirely up to them and they shouldn't be criticised either way.

I approve this message.
