Can we have an update on the situation.

No one is going to close a business unless the disaster directly effects there place of business. I mean look at Wal-Mart. . . . .

Having power cut out from you for 3.5 - 7 hours a day (the can add another blackout if needed) kinda affects their business.

Seriously guys, relax and your game will be back soon. SE is in a priority sector for getting out of the blackouts as it is. Spending all day pretending to care about their quarterly profits because you don't want to actually come out and say "idc what's going on I want my game back online" isn't going to make it come back any faster.

I got the fact ive yet to confirm mine are safe. you probably have no idea what its like to have to spend the first birthday of your life worrying about if your twin brother is alive to hit 22 with you.

Don't act like you know me or my family lol. You don't know so shush your mouth. And best wishes to your family.

I would say if that sentence was anything it would be a gangster XD. Not a 15 year old :P.

[NightDagger]

no because see i understand the world and what there doing u obviously dont.

think of it this way.... say something happens n them reactors jus go n cause a chain reaction could cause the plates to shift again etc japan could be history. How many business's in the us RELY on japan etc alot but u dont realize that grow up

Call me what you will, but why? I did not say anything to you about your knowledge or anything. I dunno how you feel you can tell me what my life revolves around. I actually only play FFXI casual, meaning I play about 2-3 hours in the early mornings when my two young daughter wake up (age 3 & 2). Then I might log on after 10pm. when they go to sleep & my wife is asleep, cause spending time with my family is #1 on my list. So SE being down does not affect me that much at all really, all I am saying is how a business works & thinks.

Now 4 years ago Ontario went through an ice storm that froze and blew up a lot of our power generators. We had to sit and wait 5 days in middle of December with no hydro. The power companies got power restored by borrowing power from USA. The whole time the power was down local companies rented generator's or had back-up power to keep them going. Now even though we had limited power through all this I still went shopping, went to work & was even able to get my hair cut. Elderly & young children died cause of the lack of heat but that did not stop companies from trying to resume everyday functions.

But on another note i for one do know how large of an impact Japan has on Canada. It is as close to zero as you could imagine. We only do 2.03% of our trading with them & roughly 52,000 people work for Toyota here.

Now you do your research and tell me your numbers before you start blasting people about facts you know nothing about.

And again. I've yet to locate my Father and Twin brother. its also my birthday now. So yeah take solace in the fact you know your loved ones are safe.

[jeffanddane]

My loved are safe but still. . . . You would be surprised how many Japanese even in this situation think just like us here. My family also owns 2 business's there and haven't shut them down. So i don't know if you would consider that selfish or w/e. But they need to live to. So on and so fourth.
