Fort McMurray Emergency Aid

Discussion in 'Past Announcements' started by [ATA]Grant, May 6, 2016.

  1. Seriously has society really fallen this far that when something terrible happens people go off because a company offers to send proceeds to help out and they get criticized over it for the amount of people that play this game and buy crystals on a daily basis should be happy to know that they have done something that could make a difference weather it's a 6.99 or a 139.99 pack how many of you have taken the time or money to help out any cause or tragedy on top of what's spent in a game

    To those that have purchased crystals thank you!! anyone that's posting otherwise we could use all the help we can get feel free to come over and help all the first responders that are working 24/7 to try and get control of the fire and save the rest of the city or maybe once the fires out you want to come help clean up and rebuild??

    Thank you ata for giving another way for people to donate small or large every little thing helps and could have made the difference in someone's life.

    Sorry for the rant
     
  2. ^ this guy knows
     
  3. The issue is guys that ATA can only track what's bought with real cash. So either nobility purchases or xtal purchases. How would it be fair for people to buy packs with earned nobility which ATA is then required to pay out losing them money?

    Great cause and supported by me. Every little helps and if everyone chips in a little it will make a huge difference.
     
  4. Seals are purchased with nobs, nobs can be earned for free, that being said, if someone were using free nobs for those seals, devs would have to pay that chunk of money out of their own pockets, plus they would have to do math for all the Nob to Dollar things and such
     
  5. Bump. Made a purchase. Hope all goes well up there. :/
     
  6. Thank you so much ATA way to step your game up. As an Albertan I am so proud of the people of Alberta for banding together in this time of disaster and devastation. I was very near to the Slave Lake fire 5 years ago and the company I worked for sent a lot of us up to fight then. I wish more companies would show the compassion that ATA has. On behalf of Alberta and everyone displaced by the Fort Mac fire I would like to say thank you.
     
  7. Props to ATA for stepping up. Hopefully, this helps to inspire larger corporations and groups to also contribute.

    It's a shame that in today's age of cynicism and butthurt e-losers, the good intentions of a person or corporate entity are met with suspicion and discourse. If you don't trust ATA, it's business policies, or its acts of selfless charity, then take a hike. Seriously, take your neck beards and conspiracy theories and leave.

    Unless you can actually fathom the magnitude of this situation, and how insignificant your personal agenda is in all of this, please shut the hell up.

  8. Fires are still growing here in Alberta as well as BC, Manitoba and Ontario. This money I am sure Red Cross will be distributing over the country as it is being devestated by fire everywhere. Again props to ATA for doing this and a huge shout out and thank you to those buying xstals to help. Those buying them just for the achievement we Albertans still thank you for the help. For those trash talking ATA for doing this I truly pray that you and your families never have to go through this. A shout out to all refugees that we have let in our country as well. Even they are stepping up to help the Canadians who have lost everything. It never goes unnoticed. God bless Canada.

  12. How much was raised?
     
  13. Total xstls bought and total funds collected would be cool to know. Nice to see the community and ATA working together for something bigger than the game.
     
  14. Same. Release the information.
     
  15. They will most likely release the funds raised later on

  18. Hey everyone,

    A huge shout out to all of you who took part in this effort. We've seen an immense amount of support from all of you, and we'll be announcing the final numbers on Monday once everything has been finalized.

    Those looking to donate further can do so via the Canada Red Cross website.
