Title: Warlord not selling to the Ukraine
Post by: swiftnick on 27 February 2022, 12:14:23 AM
Did anybody else see that rather bizarre post on TMP from Warlord games? Seemingly no longer accepting orders from Ukraine. I just can't understand why they felt the need to post that!
I think the people of the Ukraine have other issues at the moment.

I'd prefer they stopped selling to Russia.

I'd prefer they stopped selling to Russia.

It is buying anything from Russian business that needs to stop, don't provide them with a source of foreign currency.
Although without access to SWIFT that will be the result now anyway.

They are concerned that deliveries won’t go through because there’s a war on. I suspect that ordering their goods is the last thing on the mind of any prospective customer in Ukraine.

Sometimes it pays to think things through before making such announcements, lest the rest of your potential market assess you as having the IQ of a fence post and the human empathy of one to boot. >:(

Of course given the record of TMP in terms of timely posting of advertisers announcements, it’s just possible they sent this through to the Editor months ago.  ;)

Folks, I guess we all agree that in a thoroughly horrible situation, this feels like a singularly poor choice of words from Warlord, to say the least.

Since I do not feel that extended discussion will yield any beneficial results beyond that, I think it better to lock this thread to avoid drifting into political waters.
