Guardians, I'm sure some of you had seen in the news of the rampant forest fire in Fort mcmurray Alberta. Sadly my home got swallowed by the beast along with my ps4 and hundreds of hours poured into this game. I've made so many great friends on here and I love you salty b astards. I'm just here to remind you all of you are in the vicinity to stay safe and that I'm signing off from the tower for a few months to regroup and re establish. Take care guardians!
Edit: Just woke up and I am so humbled by all the messages and concern from you guys. This is why this community is one of a kind. Thank you
Edit 2: the jokes are at least amusing. I'm the kind of guy to make the best out of a bad situation. And yes I may or may not have pissed off the wrong sun singer haha
Edit 3: wow. So overwhelmed with the support of the forums. Means the world. And yes my ps4 is not a priority and I have went through all the correct channels of rebuilding my life before I jump back into the destiny world. This was meant I guess as more of a PSA on to cherish what you have and do not take it for granted. I woke up that morning beautiful day and 6 hours later it was hellfire and brimstone and chaos commenced. There are still over 20000 people stranded north of the city with the only route out surrounded by flame. The Red Cross Canada is set up to accept donations to help those in need. Thank you all. I'm currently driving across province so I'll be checking in periodically. Much love guardians.
Edit 4: So some think this is an attention ploy it is not. I need nothing and have nothing to gain from this. I evacuated my family and I posted here from the comfort of my hotel. I'm not upset my ps4 was lost. Like I said previously this is a game I enjoy and I love and a little piece of me will miss it as this is a long term haul. I need nothing. Just prayers and sympathy for those who left with nothing and nowhere to go.

My heart goes out to you, you don't know what you had or how much it meant until it is gone. Playstations can be replaced, but I am sure there are other things in your house that can't. I wish you and yours all the best. I will kill a guardian just for you tonight.

1 ReplyFrom a Calgarian, I am truly sorry. I will be donating to the services helping all the families that were impacted from this disaster and whom have lost their homes.

Edited by ForgivenAsylum: 5/6/2016 11:31:50 PMA terrible tragedy for sure. I am from Lethbridge. The company I work for started acting as a donation hub for those who want to help but don't know how, as well as pitching in itself. From a fellow Albertan, stand strong guardian. We have survived numerous disasters the last few years and will continue to rebuild stronger and stronger.

Well if it's any consolation, your savedata is stored server-side. Log in on your Psn account on any console with a copy of Destiny. Your possessions may be gone, but Destiny progression lives forever.

So sorry to hear that.
