Filipino Made Facebook Online Game to Educated Gamers to save Mother Earth

One of the Philippines' leading companies is launching a Facebook game application that is geared towards educating people about carbon footprint and cleaner and renewable sources of energy and how to be more responsible and mindful of their activities could help achieve this end.
The game is called Alter Space, and it is the first Philippine-made Facebook game that directly addresses the greater public about the ways with which they could do their share in proactively contributing to the preservation of the Earth’s resources. 


Alter Space is easy to use. Game players’ mission is to take care of their own little planet.  They do this by keeping their carbon footprint levels low, while still keeping their Happiness levels up.  They will have to accomplish fun tasks and challenges while their carbon footprint is measured.  

Every choice they make affects their environment, and the game always gives feedback as to whether the player’s choice was environmentally sound or not. They can also invite friends to be their neighbors, and their over-all carbon footprint as a community will be calculated.

In the screen shot is your planet, that you need to maintain 
a minimal carbon footprint level

The playground is an extension of your home where you need to 
                                                                        minimize the carbon footprint emission

If they fail to make the cleaner and greener choice, their virtual planet will experience disasters like Smog, which cause their avatar to lose interaction, and Heat Wave, wherein they will have to perform extra tasks or pay a fee to bring their carbon footprint down.

 In the game, you are provided your home, where every choice you make, 
may affect your carbon footprint emission

 Alter Space has local Filipino elements in the game such as the Turo Turo

Alter Space will be available in Facebook very soon. You can join its fan page by visiting  www.facebook.com/AlterSpaceGame).

My Facebook Account Disabled... Sad Sad...

Every morning when I wake up the 1st thing I do is to turn the alarm off my mobile phone. And as I turn off the alarm, the next thing I do is to check my messages, my Twitter and my Fsacebook message integrated app. 

So when I was checking my Facebook, I could not log in. I tried logging into the application, my mobile phone browser and lastly I used my PC. Still could not log in because my account was DISABLED. 


So I wrote to FB and hoping Id get a reply as to why my account was disabled here is what they replied. 

"Hi,

You were disabled because you created or posted content (i.e., photos, groups, shares, etc.) that violated Facebook's Statement of Rights and Responsibilities.

• No nudity or other sexually explicit content

• No content that contains hate speech or directly attacks an individual or group
• No content that contains self harm or excessive violence

Unfortunately, we won’t be able to reactivate your account or respond to your email directly. This decision is final and cannot be appealed.  You can visit the Warnings section of the Help Center for more information:

Thank you for contacting Facebook,


The Facebook Team"

After careful backtracking I remembered that I posted a video of a woman giving birth. Never had it occured to me that the video includes nudity. I was so amazed how magical child birth is and it is never in my intention to violate or malign femininity. 
I wrote to them again and tried to appeal..... So far no answer yet... tho I cans till wait.

It had been 3 years with Facebook.... All the pictures, videos, statuses.... 

This is how much social network had influence our lives.... That I will go through all these just to get back what was taken from me.... 

There.... go thru eating ice cream to feel good coz im sad.... 
This is how much Facebook had influenced my diet for the day!
