Gamers uniting to fight MS

Eh, i'm posting this everywhere that gamers congregate, I hope jp-30 will excuse the brief soapbox.

Anyways, Penny-arcade.com posted a link on Friday to a fellow gamer organizing a pledge drive for the upcoming MS walk in Lancaster, PA. His wife, another gamer, suffers from the disease, and he has MUCH to say on the subject:

I sent in my 10 dollar pledge with the promise it would not be my last donation and i would make sure a couple other people followed in my stead. Please don't make a liar out of me and help with this.

I've also sent this to Tom in the hopes that he posts it in TFN Games news. *crosses fingers* he owes me for my caption submissions, right? RIGHT?!

Anyways, fight the good fight and all that. Gamers UNITE!

If you don't have the scratch, but still want to help, pass on the link to any other message board you're a member of, or post it on any website you run. It would mean a lot. Thanks for taking the time to click the link!

Like The2ndQuest -- I thought this thread was about something different... and I was here to fight it!!!

But, even as a Microsoft shill, I can get behind eliminating Multiple Sclerosis...

 

LOL, I thought this was a protest against Microsoft too.....and since it said "Gamers unite" I was assuming it was about the Zone closing down the XWA and XvT rooms.

But, um, yeah, I think I used to have MS but then grew out of it or something. A worthy cause.

 

Hah! I thought it meant "fighting" MicroSoft...

Anyways, I won't pledge any money right now, but this is good... My sister has some sicknesses based on this.

My Dad's brother did too. (MS)

It isn't good, but I gotta be Positive and Pray!

Though, WHY are Video-Gamers Uniting? Weird...

 

My Grandfather has it and I would be in no more a mood to help even if he didn't. I will get the word around.

 

I was hoping to see the Gamers in this forum rebel against the Mod Squad.

 

Stridarious, thanks a bunch. Email Kwip and let him know you're on the case, it'll mean a lot.

I'll post this in my gaming league, there's 300+ members in it so there should be at least a little interest there.
