The DMD post mentioning the $5 donation makes no reference to the game. The post does however offer an additional treat to those who would not donate otherwise, in the form of what I suppose are nudes of DMD characters.
It also gives a direct link to an AU wildlife organisation that handles donations, if you want to donate and don't care about the nudes.
I'm not sure what you're actually disapproving of here, but maybe I am misunderstanding your intent; I had trouble parsing it.
You clearly didn't even bother to read MrDots' write-up on the donation page.
His main writer is Australian, THAT'S why the cause has his attention, and why he wants to help.
It's incredible some of the BS people post on this site, just to draw attention to themselves, when all this dev and team are trying to do is a kind, selfless thing. He doesn't need to do a damn thing, yet, he has, and has most peoples respect for that.
Who's to say he hasn't donated to other charities that we don't know about?
EdIt: Agreed
preglovr12. If none of you have anything positive to say about any dev donating and raising money for a charity, it sure as hell has no place here. Or anywhere for that matter.
In addition, Hearsz lives close to the fires. For example, the location where his brother just got married burned down in the fires ... so the events are closer to home than others.
But if you were to question whether or not this donation would affect more human lives than others? Probably not since funding a malaria prevention organization or an organization that provides solar panels for impoverished people in third world countries would probably have more impact, and more lasting. But for the MDots team, this has poignancy.
If you read my post, then I didn’t write about helping Australia is bad. "In general, charity is a good thing..."+"How the author wants to manage this money, let him decide for himself".
The question is how it is presented. While the problems did not concern the authors, no one spoke about charity. And as soon as it was touched, it immediately began.
You should always do charity work, and not just when it concerns you. And if you do it, you will not boast about it right and left.
Real charity is a complete transfer of funds to the addressee without extracting their own benefits:
You must be registered to see the links
(Although in this situation, the manufacturer company will receive certain benefits for themselves)
In addition, I wrote not only about the author but also about f95. Discussing the topic with the game about the problems of Australia is not the best solution. I was more affected not so much by the content of the author’s post than by the discussion in this topic.
In the topic with the game, I personally am interested in the game, and not where the author of the game is going to spend his money. and if we are talking about charity, then it does not need to be imposed. I am able to read about world problems on relevant resources and make my own decisions about charity and other things.
I hope that in this topic we will discuss the game, and not how to do charity work, etc...
