Red, White, and Blue Antenna in honor of 9/11

[krazii]

Lot's of great ideas and good discourse. My guess is that this has become too controversial and that STS will shy away from anything that would affect their bottom line or bother any of their customers. In regards to them being red/white/blue. I think this particular date is an American Memorial Date that other countries can choose to commemorate or not. STS is an American company (and based in Texas to boot, a very patriotic state), but they have an international player base, very difficult to manage, but in the end, I don't think anybody would knock STS for doing something to commemorate a significant day in their countries history.

STS is located in Texas and thats in the USA so i think they would have something on that day Remember 9/11 it will never be forgotten.

Hey guys,

911 was a horrible event. No question. 10 years is a significant length of time and it's understandable that different organizations and events will do things to commemorate it. However, that doesn't always mean we need to bring such subjects into the game world. Many people play video games as an escape from the pressures and issues of real life. In this case, we would like to respect that aspect of gaming. Therefore, we do not plan to bring a commemoration or recognition of 911 into the game.

Thank you in advance for your support and understanding for our position regarding this.

Respectfully yours,
Samhayne

I would see no problem with the U.S flag colored Anntennas period... Veterans day, 9/11, 4th of July... The Dev's are based here and honestly we are proud of our country so why not have had them on 4th of July or anything just because? I doubt that would offend people from other places seeing how they are from here and the events we are talking about like most holidays are celebrated here...


Put it this way; POKEMON is from japan and have alot of merch with the Japanese Flag And The Game Has Events only for them in japan, do I knock them for that? NO! Because it was created there and I'm just glad they share it with the rest of the world and would rock a Japanese Pokemon shirt or anything any day :-)

Really dig the donate to 9/11 fund on the purchase of the Anntennas but they would prob be 10-20 plat not 5 :-)

Good call.

Red-white-blue antennas would be great for the next 4th of July... twin towers antennas (please do not implement). Camo antennas are a good new antenna idea all around.

This is a pretty interesting idea so I figured I would throw my two cents in. I was a soldier and I served from in operation enduring freedom in Afghanistan. I believe as much as any one that 9/11 is a day that should be remembered and recognized as a tragically significant event in the history of both America and the world as a whole. With that said I agree with Samhayne that this is a game. If you choose to honor the ten year anniversary in some way, do it in the real world and let the world of PL remain geared toward why it was made. To have fun

Please do some sort of service for the benefit of humanity, like bring some old clothes to Goodwill or sign up for some hammer and nail work at a local Habitat for Humanity project. This is not a day for vanity items. It is a day to affirm the spirit of cooperation, empathy, humility, and good will between MOST of the people on this planet. Holding up a sign means little. Only real effort, actual service, getting your hands dirty in the name of love, will help. Helping others means everything.

Remember, a few people who hate wanted everyone to hate, so the proper response is to love. That's the one thing they don't want!

Wonderful idea.

[Xazic]

Not a very artistic idea for a day of mourning...

[Snub]

OMG I would be so excited for camouflage Antennas I would probably pee my pants.

I would be concerned that i couldn't see camouflage Antennas... or perhaps lose them even...

I offered this suggestion as amendment to your original plans for Sunday:

Given your post, I hope there are no "deals" on Sunday.

As an Army veteran I will leave all these comments. It's fine to have these things to remember something. But me personally know what I done for my country and to be frank I don't need an every day reminder of it. Some of us chose to go fight because we knew it was the right thing to do to help defend a nation we call home. Some of us have nightmares about our trips and would love to forget. I find it nice al wants to say thanks and remember all that lost there lives and nothing wrong with that but do so in respect and honor. With that I am in favor of the idea but wear it proudly because someone faught and died so you can have what you have today. R.I.P all my fellow brothers and sister in arms
