While I strongly +1 this initiative for fellow capsuleer in need I find it slightly shameful that people with such diseases are pushed toward popularity contest for something like that van. Geezus, it is a van with a wheelchair ramp/lift not a frakking spaceship, how much it would take out of "really important matters" budget to just provide one of them to everybody who needs it? Yeah, I know...


As someone who works one on one with the severly disabled I wholeheartedly agree with the above. That being said for every person I see that truly needs one I see 2-3 that I am pretty sure I could prove they are gaming the system... if someone actually did that job.

EDIT: Keep up the good fight Avalloc

*Snip* Please refrain from personal attacks. ISD Ezwal.

I voted for the guy. It puts him one vote closer to that chair, and it puts me one click closer to being a part of my local community (EVE Online). It wasn't a vote to make the world a better place, it was a vote to say I care about you people.

If it was you trying to get that van, I'd cast a vote for you. I don't mind that you had a rage fit here. That's not important. What is important is that you and everyone else here is happy. I hope you can see that and be a bit more civil to these people.

I think this is all we need to end the thread on.

It's a pity it was moved from GD to OOPE as most of the community won't actually see how appreciative Avalloc is for the support and realise that behind the keyboard is a real person who is both classy and a Goon.

Voted again today. Man I suck at answering the trivia questions though.

I have removed some rule breaking posts and those quoting them. As always I let some edge cases stay.

The Rules:
4. Personal attacks are prohibited.

Commonly known as flaming, personal attacks are posts that are designed to personally berate or insult another forum user. Posts of this nature are not beneficial to the community spirit that CCP promote and as such they will not be tolerated.


26. Off-topic posting is prohibited.

Off-topic posting is permitted within reason, as sometimes a single comment may color or lighten the tone of discussion. However, excessive posting of off-topic remarks in an attempt to derail a thread may result in the thread being locked, or a forum warning being issued.



The OP politely requested to lock this thread. A quote of part of that request: "Avalloc's post was a good last edition and I think the thread, being outside GD has run it's course in terms of getting awareness out there."
I agree. Request granted, thread locked.
