November the 11th
 
Okay so tommorow is Remembrance Sunday as your probably all aware off, era should make some poppies that are free to the public to show how proud we are to live in the UK. I hope this doesn't sound disrespectful

RedBoy786* 11-10-2012 11:15 PM

I don't see the correlation between a game in which killing is 'cool' and the people who dies in the army but yah...

V. 11-10-2012 11:21 PM

Agreed. A little poppy would be nice. Just a poppy, though. No damn furniture or other crap.

musical 11-10-2012 11:29 PM

Just a poppy yeah so people can be reminded of the people that died for my country

Berries 11-10-2012 11:42 PM

Poppies. You mean the stuff heroin comes from?

Also, they have 9/11 remembrance and no one complained. They've made a Canada flag. Why can't the Uk get a celebration especially seeing as Snk lives in Europe.

Because if one place gets something then every one is going to want something for their country. You can't just have something for every thing that has ever happened in history. The staff would be working like crazy and wouldn't have enough time to finish it all. Y'know, they have to relax and base all day and do nothing. That means a lot to them.

Uhh not only the UK. France, USA, UK, Italy and Russia worked together in the First World War...

It's also Noah Maxwell's birthday (TribeTwelve). Can't wait for the live stream! :D

Higbey 11-11-2012 01:10 AM

all real world holidays other than the few international ones should be kept out of the game, go buy a poppy in real life.

failure 11-11-2012 01:45 AM

I don't know what rememberance Sunday is... And berries, lots of people complained about 9/11. It was fairly disrespectful, in my opinion.

Emera 11-11-2012 02:01 AM

It shouldn't be forced. If the staff feel it appropriate to give a free item away like a poppy or something (not a priced item), then I'm for it. As long as they don't go crazy and sell a ****load of items or start selling items for stupid amounts of money that is.

Skill 11-11-2012 02:07 AM

Remember, remember,

Sungwonc01 11-11-2012 02:55 AM

How about just a poppy food item? Nothing too much just sell it in the gas station or something.

Shock 11-11-2012 03:24 AM

It's not disrespectful. Sure, why not. I don't see why a poppy couldn't be added. Especially since graal was made in Europe. It's kind of wrong to have most American holidays in a UK game.

General_s2 11-11-2012 03:30 AM

I agree 100% these brave soldiers risked their lives to give us the freedom we have today. Bless them.

They shall be remembered.

Higbey 11-11-2012 03:41 AM

If we give one place a holiday for a stupid war all the players from different areas will also want f
Stuff for their stupid holiday.

Precisely what I think. I also think most people don't actually care so much as to what the day signifies but rather use it as an opportunity to get another "limited edition" item which can later be bargained off to some noob for something much nicer.

Items shouldn't need to be made for such holidays....

Ventus277 11-11-2012 06:53 AM

A poppy wouldn't be hard at all to make or distribute for free. A small tiny flower is not asking much don't see a big deal.

Jester Lapse 11-11-2012 08:20 AM

If you really care about those people giving their lives, then celebrate it in real life and not a game. Seems a bit weak that you'd consider getting a pixel item as "remembering"

Maxy 11-11-2012 08:38 AM

The thing about the November 11th holiday is that we remember all army members of Britian around the world from all wars. We all wear poppies on this day to respect everyone who has died for their country. We celebrate on the November 11th because n this day WW1 ended on the 11/11/1911 at 11:11 am. This is why we remember. It's the only time I see Britian be truely patriot. At 11:11 there is normally a minute of silence around the country, I've seen cars stop and they just respect everyone. I'm going to be marching with the army later, a poppie in era or classic isnt a hard thing to ask for the British players.

BEH0LD iTz SAM 11-11-2012 09:04 AM

Everyone always forgets that the australians and new zealands were in the war too -.-" without us you wouldnt of won Aimens at the western front

musical 11-11-2012 09:37 AM

Yeah well as I said FREE poppy that isn't droppable... When it's time for the 2 minute silence I won't even be on this game. It was just an idea, thanks for your opinions

Higbey 11-11-2012 12:32 PM

We give one stupid war something, then all the other places want something for their stupid wars.

Holidays that are not the major seasonal ones should not be in the game.

musical 11-11-2012 12:53 PM

Higbey, piss off been disrespectful its not a "stupid war thing" if they didn't put their lives out for us the world would not be the same as today. Stop ****ing forum sucking just for attention. Your pathetic.

VincentViga 11-11-2012 01:07 PM

Then I want midsummer from Sweden to be added into Graal. In Sweden we celebrate midsummer by dancing around a "midsommarstång", also called "midsummer's pole".

Can be found here, midsummer

musical 11-11-2012 01:13 PM

How has dancing around a pole have any relation to people dying for your country. Piss off

You people must be so immature.

irony levels are off the charts.

Every war is a stupid war. There is no such thing as a wise war. Not on earth at least.


You want a item on a game for your holiday, like a virtual poppy will actually do anything, then go and say that his holiday with the pole shouldn't have any recognition in game.

No holidays other than the major seasonal ones should be recognized in game.

Yeah, because if you do regional holidays, people get upset that their regional holidays are not celebrated.

MementoJoker 11-11-2012 02:05 PM

Dafuq's a poppy? I don't think this should be celebreated in game, this is very stupid.
Next Thursday a smartass will want items for the Islamic New Year.

musical 11-11-2012 03:04 PM

You seriously don't know what a poppy is omg what is this world coming to.

Maxy 11-11-2012 03:25 PM

A poppy is a flower that was in France in WW1 and they used to fight through fields of them. Google poppies

Higbey 11-11-2012 03:54 PM

see also: poppy seeds and heroin

MementoJoker 11-11-2012 04:07 PM

Dude, I live in ****ing Egypt, how the hell should I know about your cultural stuff.
Do you know what a basbousa or a konafa is? If you respond with no does that mean you're an idiot? It's a cultural thing, I don't celebrate Remembrance Sunday.

musical 11-11-2012 04:16 PM

Remembrance Sunday is a massive global thing where we remember the people that have died fighting for our/your country

no, no its not, remembrance sunday is in western Europe and Australia and New Zealand, its not global at all, a lot of people do not know about it, its regional, its not major, its not being celebrated on iera or iclassic.

MementoJoker 11-11-2012 04:56 PM

It's being celebrated on Era right now with a "poppy" hat. If you think the whole world is the US, some European countries and the Commonwealth then you should rethink that.

Higbey 11-11-2012 05:01 PM

its not global, if they celebrate one stupid regional holiday then they would have to celebrate them all, they should only do the true global famous seasonal holidays

musical 11-11-2012 05:41 PM
