1 More Day till SERVER "Restart"

The people who are back to work are going back to work because they have to in order to keep the economy alive.

Yes, and I'm sure video games don't apply here!

Why shouldn't we? Who the hell are you to judge? I may care about Japan, but if Square-Enix takes too long to get their *** together I will not stick around. That's the reality of the situation. No one is obligated to stay here and wait because there was an earthquake. No MMORPG company is obligated to give Square a "free pass" because of this so that they can catch up with them, and nobody will. No, the world doesn't work that way. That's what Square should care about.

I doubt Japan's economy is based around if 'you stick around' in a free to play MMO.

So I can read about how your family really wanted a MMO kept online for another month instead of giving them aid.

That's THE REALITY of the situation. The game doesn't matter in the big picture.

FFS: The country is DOWN.

Screw the games, the real world takes priority. This game could end here, and not make nearly the impact that the reactors fate will have.

The people who are back to work are going back to work because they have to in order to keep the economy, society, and essentially people alive.

Who gives a *** about a MMO when Japan itself is in crisis? Who gives a *** about video games?

Stupid, selfish, worthless bastards... that's who. ( No offense to people who were born out of wedlock, for you are, indeed, far superior to the 'bastards' I reference)

If you take offense to this, die. The rest of the world needs the resources you are leeching.

wow... just.... wow... how deluded can you be?

I couldn't keep reading. I don't know how old you are or if you understand how business works, but video games are an industry. Meaning they generate jobs and income. It's great that SE decides to adhere by the power failures Japan is having at the moment, but it's a business. Yes a nuclear blowout would be horrible, not because of the video games or anime or whatever you like about Japan so much but because it would cost a lot of lives and land...but what is SE going to do about it other than this? It's a business and a business can't just sit on its hands and survive.

Also, the country is not down lol. Was America down after Katrina? Oil spill? 9/11? The stock market closed for one day but opened the doors the next because it's a business. Restaurants in New Orleans opened as soon as they could move the debris and get the people coming back. Saying the country is down is just degrading to them. Sure I'll give them my prayers and a little money...hell if I had the time I would travel there and help out with some homeless stuff (I'm a chef ) but the world doesn't stop.

They know this and the Japanese are one of the hardest working people out there. I didn't take offense to what you said by the way....I just thought you were an ignorant retard. And yes I do hope the servers come back up as soon as possible and I will be pissed if they are down for another month. Why? Because one coast line isn't the whole country. IF a nuclear disaster were to happen, as unfortunate as that would be to the country and people...I bite my tongue.

Until then, keep on truckin'
