Hi PIMD Family, As many of you are already aware Russia has recently declared war on Ukraine and an invasion is underway. At ATA, our Ukrainian players are in our thoughts, and we are sending our love and support your way. Please do what you can to stay safe. Through this crisis we should all put focus into how we can support those impacted. This means supporting those in Ukraine, but also those with loved ones there and those that are dealing with the stressors tied to this situation. Let's all work together to create safe spaces to support each other in this incredibly difficult time. Support Each Other Personally Gaming can often be an escape for people dealing with traumatic experiences, so be mindful to be extra kind to each other and accepting that others may be dealing with stressors we are unaware of. Let's also avoid arguing with each other about the situation in-game. Arguments like this can become insensitive very quickly, and can be triggering for those trying to escape this reality. Remember that we all could use someone to talk to right now, so let's show up for our friends. Supporting Charitable Organizations Below are just a few of the charities that are supporting Ukrainians directly impacted, although there are several more out there. I encourage you to do your own research to find the way you feel most comfortable providing support. International Committee of the Red Cross The ICRC will be directly supporting the Ukrainian Red Cross with the rebuilding of infrastructure in Ukraine. You may also find your local branch of the Red Cross is accepting donations, or you can directly donate to the Ukrainian Red Cross. https://www.icrc.org/en/where-we-work/europe-central-asia/ukraine Voices of Children This is a Ukrainian based charity directly helping children impacted by the war through psychological and psychosocial support. https://voices.org.ua/en/ - From your friends and family at ATA
Thank you @ATA-Will for the kind words and support. It's an awful situation to see. Much love and support to those that need it during these times. Please stay safe and don't feel discouraged to reach out for help from friends and family for support. Stay safe and stand strong lovelies. The world is with you 💋💙
Tbh with how the game is going i wouldnt be suprized if pvp was removed from the game at some point in the near future. But nahh. Does that mean all war games and fighting games should be banned just coz theres a war happening? Theres wars in the middle east all the time. I dont see why it should have to be banned just coz a new war in a different place has started
Praying & sending my thoughts to those who are being effected by this in Ukraine. Farming/ PVP should be put on a hold momentarily during this time. As someone had mentioned above, insensitive players feed off this & that is when they farm the most OR atleast give players an option to block players from PVP during this time. Although that is just how the game works, it isn't a positive outlet for those who are being effected during this time. Players would be upset outside of the game, but also during their time playing PIMD.
so we should be partying at a time when people are literally dying? That sounds even more insensitive than some pvp. By this logic we should ban parties and only have pvp or nothing at all imo
No I mean for the farmers that make you buy them a cat or out right spend money to make them stop farming shouldn’t be allowed
extorting irl money and/or items that cost ec aren't allowed already, go send a ticket if it's happening to u
Hi i noticed this comment. farmers are not allowed to make you cf any forms of monetary payments. That is blatantly against the TOU. You definitely should send a help ticket for that. 💙 You can't get assistance in forums for that @IamTigerKing
Correct it is against TOU, however unless you have proof in the form of a public place such as your wall, sending a ticket is a waste of time.
It's a heartbreaking situation. I have family in both Moscow and Kiev, innocent people are suffering, while tyranny is prevailing. Best you can do is advocate peace and find out more about what You personally can do to eliminate nuclear weapons allover the world, Putin has been threatening us with one for a while now, but don't forget that if he fires a nuke many more nukes will go off across the globe! We are all in this together 🌍 ❤️
