I really hate this. Nexon has done something genuinely good by donating $1.2 million and then they sort of ruin it by adding a ridiculous clause that will benefit them more than the people they're supposed to be helping.
A lot of people are presumably going to go out and buy NX now thinking it's going to go toward the relief funds. They'll either not read or misunderstand that items like cubes aren't covered and will spend all of that NX on them, completely negating their attempted contribution. It's things like this that make Nexon look so scummy but they can't be held accountable because the words are there and it's not their fault people don't read them.
To anyone who REALLY wants to donate to the Red Cross, I propose you just text 90999 to REDCROSS and leave out the middleman. If you want to buy NX, do it, but don't do it because you want to do something good. If you want to do something good, do it without getting something in return.
