Winterwords wrote:Operation Countdown to ZeroThe gaming industry has been dominated by Wizards of the Coast for a long time, and every year the attitude of Wizards seems to be getting worse. The company's message boards reflect that attitude, and the community liaison, Mike Lescault (Gamer Zer0), is a good example of how Wizards thinks that customers can just be told what they like. Mike is also good at censoring any critical voices.So why should you care about Wizards? Well, you don't have to care, ignoring them is a good way of making them feel the power of customers. However, we want to go a step further and make Wizards feel that gamers are not happy with the way the company is behaving. So today (Friday) we'll launch Operation Countdown to Zero, a strike against the message boards of Wizards. We'll start by putting up a nice, politely-worded post, and when Wizards starts deleting posts, we'll put them all over their message boards faster than they can take them down.Details can be found here http://www.gleesux.synthasite.com and here http://www.freewebs.com/gleesux/ . We'd love to see many people join us this weekend and make Wizards sweat a little. Let's see if we can pull this off, I'm sure it will be fun.Wizards topic:http://forums.gleemax.com/showthread.php?p=15935878
