johnnyboy 3756 Posted February 25, 2022 One of the developers of the awesome Prairie Fire DLC is in Ukraine and trying to get out. This isn't a political statement, but a plea for a community member. He's leaving all his possessions behind, so a fund raiser has been set up by the head of Savage Game Design Rob Graham. Please consider it. I hope this isn't a BI forum violation, but this is a special situation. https://fundrazr.com/b1xPa7?ref=ab_3U6lFVtqem23U6lFVtqem2 7 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

johnnyboy 3756 Posted February 27, 2022 Not for about 24 hours. He definitely has a lot of good advisors. They're remotely trying to help get him to the border. Once there, people will meet him. There aren't any details provided for obvious resasons. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hope things go well for his sake and he gets to where he needs to go without the anxiety, emotional or otherwise hardships that come with a warzone, like i would know none the less, let him get to where hes going to and back to the community with peace of mind. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
johnnyboy 3756 Posted February 27, 2022 Here's the latest status post from Rob Graham on the fund raiser page. Its 13 hours old now. "Our guy had a full medical exemption from serving, but it only applies in peacetime. He was initially allowed to leave but now is not. As the laws changed rapidly in the past few days he is registering with the military now despite being quite unfit to serve. His girlfriend could have left yesterday to meet our team just on the other side of the border but she bravely chose to stay with her man. We are now turning our mission to supporting them to live under a roof in the warm for the next months as the war situation evolves. Thank you all for your donations and words of support so far! It means a lot to them and gives them resolve together." He didn't get out quick enough. Bummer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
johnnyboy 3756 Posted March 12, 2022 The fund raiser has been closed, and this is what is now posted at the fund raiser link: As our friends are safe inside western Ukraine, we are going to remove the fundraiser, as they can survive for quite a time with the donations already sent. Thank you all! Anyone wishing to donate in future please consider these aid NGO's active in the country: https://www.unicef.org.uk/donate/donate-now-to-protect-children-in-ukraine/https://donate.redcross.org.uk/appeal/ukraine-crisis-appeal 5 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
