I have been frustrated as I see the units going to ridiculous levels and what was once a great unit now completely sapped by a new LTQ or whatever event. I almost quit the game because after two weeks of not playing after my Ipad crashed, support finally got me setup, oh wait, lost two weeks of play time because they took forever to respond. Although I did get a nice apology. Really, an apology? Sorry I digress.
It seems that many factions and the game is becoming more mercenary as people and factions push ever higher to get those really cool units.
Now onto my story. I have a son whom I love dearly. He is a lower level but I felt it was more important that we participate together than apart. As an original member of VFF Alpha, I have always been privileged to play with and against some great players in this game. I love the fact we are a top faction and the relationships and people are amazing. My goal was to find a top 50 alliance that we could both play together. But I also knew my son was not strong enough to be there. I searched around (really learned a lot from that too) and found People's Front of Judea. Charles of PFJ, Col Clink, God of PFJ and others welcomed us with open arms.
What I thought would be impossible to find again, find a close group of people who value each other by some miracle I found with them. Was all ready to make the move, when the most amazing outpouring of support began to show up.
A thread in our Group was started by Gero. He explained that I wanted to play with my son and something that literally brought a tear to my eye happened. The members of Alpha, jumped in and wanted to bring in a newer player to give a father and son the privilege of playing together.
I cannot tell you how excited my son has been about this, and for a parent of a special needs child it has been remarkable. So in this case, the game is more than just a game.
So I want to publicly thank VFF Lima, which allowed him to participate with them. To VFF Alpha and to People's Front of Judea, all I can say is wow. You guys are amazing people and I am truly blessed to know you.
So as the game spins out of control with headhunting, crazy units and hunger for money, there are still some amazing people out there. So like it or not am going to thank some of you here. If you want to add to this and thank others in the forum for help, please feel free. No complainers or whiners hijacking my thread.

There are many more, but do not want to get even more sappy than I already have.
Thanks all and see you on the battlefield.
