thats sad they celebrate Australian day but not this wow..
What special items do you suggest would be sold?
Whats black history month? XD
I don't expect special items
to be sold maybe just a little acknowledgement. Snk could post in a broadcast message just enlightening everyone what month it is. If they would do some sort of
special item I suggest a sign that says "Black History Month" as a vip item. If they really cant think of any items to give I can give a list of items that could be considered to celebrate Black History Month.
7.5k for a special sign that says 'Black History Month'? HillariousQuote:

They can't celebrate everything. Considering it's not that big of a thing out of America and Canada I really wouldn't blame them for not doing it.Quote:

The Chinese New year is something we should celebrate? They celebrate everything but Black History month in my opinion feel free to rebuttal my opinion if you wishQuote:

I still find the whole concept of black history month ridiculous. It's not something we really do where I live so I don't know the a whole lot about it but to me black history is history, what is the need to separate the two?

Thats why there is a black History because people you(Not being mean)seem to forget the impact no nothing about black history had and how it changed America completely. Thats why it needs to be celebrated on era this is a simple request im not trying to turn it into a debate so lets just keep it as that a request.
Lots of things change many countries and they can not all be celebrated. If an admin chose to organise something then that would be their choice, for example I assume one of the Australian admins organised Australia day so that was their choice.Quote:

Don't twist my words. I completely understand and acknowledge the massive impact black history has had on America and the rest of the world and I respect it massively. I just don't see the need for a dedicated month. As Morgan Freeman said, the best way to stop racism is to stop talking about it. Black history is world history, there's no reason to segregate it.Quote:

Hmm, different opinions you say...
Well, to conclude something this sort of event isn't highly recognized by others except for the Negroes.
So you can't expect the team to have this sort of thing to take place so easily without any considerations being made.
Yeah, I think they should add something for Black History Month.
iEra should only celebrate major holidays imo such as Christmas, Easter, Valentines. That way the staff team can work on fixing/improving the server instead of preparing for holiday updates every month.
True.Quote:

No updates yet for this year.
I totally agree with you. Black history is a priority month.Quote:
