    I just did this because there should be MORE people apologizing to them. Telling them, while it is courteous, that their apologies to us for the game being down, really isn't needed. It is professional courtesy, but we should be making more and more threads apologizing to them. Not more threads about "What are you gonna do for the next 70 hours?"

    And sad thing is, instead of "Our condolences to you SE and Japan" there will be more and more threads about, "60 hours to go, 48 hours to go, 12 hours to go, 2 hours to go."

    I feel like a total fool sitting here in my nice lit up house, electricity all day and night, my computer and internet running, while there are some people over there that don't even have a place to lay their heads down. I think about that and it breaks my heart.

    As said before, I just wish more people would post something like this.

    And, if my 'book' bothers you, don't read it? Obviously you don't feel the same. But if this happened to you..I'd feel the same for you. And if you posted to me online on a forum, saying that 'You are sorry that your business isn't up and running because of a catastrophe and you weren't capable of offering your services to me and apologized for it', I would offer my condolences to you and try to express how you need not apologize to me... I'd pray for you, I'd keep you in my thoughts, and it probably would break my heart the same way.

    I felt the same when Haiti got hit. I pledged money to them and over the summer last year, I went to Haiti instead of going to California for Vacation so I could help them out with Tourism. And man o man was there a lot of Americans there. Working, vacationing which helps with total revenue...And more than likely, I will go to Japan on my next Vacation this summer, for the first time. Even if my contributions are minor.

    But maybe I wrote so much because there aren't words to express how I feel about what has happened, and is still happening to the thousands upon thousands of people over there.

    But even donating, I just feel like I'm throwing money at a bleeding wound.

    You are all entitled to your opinion about what I had to say. Funny tho, that I got criticized for something that I have ALWAYS been really good at. Writing and expressing how I feel. lol

    But here you go, another book. Criticize away. And I'm not talking to everyone. There are a few of you there that understand. I appreciate it.

    yes your point is truthful. There are to many repetitive threads & just plain useless ones. A countdown thread is pointless, we all know when the servers will be back & do not need 20 people making their own to inform us of this.

    The threads I enjoy are one's like this, The one with updates of Japan's current situation & ones that address actual game related changes, suggestions or problems.
