Atlantica Online News - Child's Play Withdraws from Fundraising Event

Posted by Michael Bitton on Dec 30, 2009  | 86 comments in our forums

NDOORS Interactive recently announced a promotion whereby a new box that could potentially contain some of the game's most rare and sought after items would be made available for 3999 Gcoins at Atlantica Online's item mall, and that 5% of the gross revenue generated from the event would be donated to the Child's Play charity.

This is no longer the case.

NDOORS Interactive has announced today that due to negative player feedback Child's Play has withdrawn themselves from the event:

...we are saddened to inform you that due to some negative player complaints, Child’s Play has regrettably asked to be withdrawn from our efforts to raise money for their cause. We were informed that Child’s Play received negative emails from Atlantica Online players around the nature of the donation and the box, causing them to request removal from our fundraising efforts.

It is incredibly unfortunate that we are unable to give the donation amount that you, our players, raised to this charity due to the negativity of certain players around the nature of the donation and an optional, opt-in purchase. While we recognize that not all of our players were negative towards the donation and/or box, it is regrettable that the actions of a few have prevented our players, as a whole, from donating to this cause (we say “as a whole” because our players can still donate directly, and we encourage you to do so).

Read the full announcement here.
