Considering they give the 100% of the benefits to the cause, it is very noble.

Seems someone knows very little on how tax works, people but a product and blizzard donates 100% to this cause no right government will tax on those proceeds, nice try though. Btw that was the simple way of putting it, the other, you wouldn't understand.

People can say what they want about Blizzard, but they are really good about stepping up to help when times are bad.

Cute, that's for sure. Not sure it's wise to keep it that close to flamable objects though :)

100% of the donations will go to the Red Cross, but knowing the history of the Red Cross, what percentage of that money goes to actually helping the victims? Its definitely a worthy cause, wanting to help out victims and give relief, I would not call the Red Cross a worthy organization however and would encourage people to do some actual research, there are better ways to give to those in need.

While this is certainly nice, they should simply donate 0.1% of the earnings each month and it would be way off the chart compared to this, which also makes players spend even more money on a game.

Why is it said that the road to hell is paved with good intentions? Is there a shortage of bad ones? |
