Thanks for continuously reporting these stories (and the memos). The more it’s out there, the more they can’t run from it. Keep this issue visible.

What if we modify your plan slightly and instead feed him to pigs?

Bobby Kotick said he’d consider resigning if he couldn’t fix the problem.

I’m just pointing out, it’s not all cosmetics. I think when you artificially extend the life of your game by slowing xp gain, then selling the xp gain later, you’re scummy.

I think this is detrimental to the player, the consumer, who doesn’t pay out for this artificial game extender. I don’t think everything is about…
