In the spirit of a good cause check out this free game called Nightmare Malaria for iPhone Android and Kindle. Really difficult but fun!

Any donations you give will help save lives so it's a win win not play to win game. Reminds me a bit of Limbo.

The Against Malaria Foundation is one of the most effective charities globally. 100% of all public donations buy long-lasting insecticidal nets.

Every penny donated goes towards saving a life.

Every day in every way I improve my skills and get better.

I believe this would fall in the category of advertising. Enjoy your thread lock shortly.

Advertising? Did you miss the part about it being free? It's not something I'm "selling", it's for a good cause, like plex for good. But go ahead make your smug remarks, shows how caring of a person you are.

No i think you missed something. "Free" things make their income from guess what.. Advertisement.. Each click, they receive funds, each person going further visiting their website if they have one (because they clicked the link and got interested) will get them monies.
You are promoting a product, albeit free, that is not in any way shape or form related to EVE Online. so yes, i would classify this as advertising.
I won't deny it's for a good cause, and the intention with your thread a good one, but it's against the forum rules (not to backseat moderate in any way saying that)

A non profit making monies. Good one! The money they receive is used to buy insecticide mosquito nets and also helps to educate people about the dangers of malaria. If anything it's a PSA to raise awareness not an advertisement but go ahead, JUDGE.

It could be a cure for AIDS - it still wouldn't be EVE related.

OOPE forum woulda been better cyndrogen. Not only because GD is for directly eve related topics, but it's the biggest troll fest on the boards. Pirate

So yeah, grab a helmet or just switch off from the thread if you want to keep your sanity. Smile Good cause though!

No need to be all aggressive there. I'm just saying. I'm all for it being for a good cause, I think it's very noble, but fact remains. What if i made a thread linking a video advertising free Viagra saying it was for a good cause? I wouldn't rate the quality and lifespan of such a thread to be optimal.

Unfortunately, there is no exception for non-profits in the advertisements rule. If you would like to use the forums to promote a specific charity, I recommend contacting the CCP Community Team via a support ticket.
