The OP certainly hasn't caused any of Greece's problems. Those have been a long time coming. It's a very bad situation to be in. I really hope you guys get to keep playing. I don't want to see gamers cut off due to politics, especially when the game can really help you to escape the situation there at least for a little while. =/

It's so shocking to see people be so rude on here.

Okay so you don't agree with the government.. So how would you feel if we turned the tables and started blaming every American for the things their government has done? That would be silly.

I think people on these forums need to grow up and show some respect. You're not helping anyone by treating OP badly or dismissing them.

He's the one blaming the EU, it's only right people correct him. Getting upset because people critisize the nonsense he posted doesn't make much sense.

Thank you very much for the support.

He's the one that posted bullcrap about EU countries, he called it down upon himself. Besides, it's not like people are cursing and cussing him out in here, just disagreeing. Don't be so overly sensitive.

dang this thread is pretty vicious.

Yeah because comments implying OP and other Greeks deserve "what is to come" is really 'correcting' them /s. Not saying that OP made a good post, but goodness sinking further below their level isn't going to solve the problem.

(Bolded for clarity)

OP gave us an issue, and we should be looking at how it can be best addressed so players aren't excluded.

dang this thread is pretty vicious.

It's exhausting reading the comments made by people having a sook over "omg he said I didn't live in a democracy!11!1 but much freedoms!1!". Let's address the issue and forget about the other comments made since it's their opinion and they aren't relevant to their original question.

I think you'd find that isn't the case. I think Americans are however, blamed for things Americans do generally (which is also an issue because it is stereotyping), but that's irrelevant to this post.

Well, it doesn't really help that OP started his post by basically accusing us all of trying to invade Greece and insulting our countries by telling us our democracy isn't "true democracy", whatever that may be (maybe that Ancient Greek kind of democracy where only rich men were allowed to participate?).

When democracy was created, the people was actually involved in political decisions, everyday law making, etc. Some persons were chosen to represent equally every kind of social rank, and changed frequently to prevent some kind of power from being establised.

Now, we just vote for some elite political dude within a set of already chosen persons and let them rule our lives for a bunch of years. That's the only power the people kept from the initial "democracy", and that's what the OP was refering to.
"We" kept the word "democracy" because it sounds reassuring for the masses, but it actually has not much in common with what it meant in the past.

I'm not saying if this is a good or a bad thing, in fact, politic as a whole is so complicated now that it would probably be impossible for a modern society to get back to the "old model", but heh.
