Re: How about "Help Tsunami victims Block"

Do you have similar guidelines on how to add blocks to

a) Save starving children in Congo?
b) Help victims of the civil-war in Sudan?
c) Help build up Iraq and Afghanistan?
d) Save people from dying from kolera and the like in the countries around the ones hit by the tsunami?

I think it would be hypocritical of us to put up this block when we have not done the same for the above mentioned disasters.

No, I am not a heartless bastard, but we are being bombarded with tsunami here and tsunami there - surely it has no added value to add it to this site as well.

What you do is up to you. You may of course encourage everyone to do the same and I have no problems with you using the XOOPS Member's Lounge for that purpose, it was merely an answer to
