LWM and Jingles kept it short and to the point. If any of you want to show support, STOP PLAYING THE GAME Otherwise WG do not care, as long as you login and spend your time on their product they do not care if 'you' do not spend money, because someone else will, because you are providing them opponents to play against. 14 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

19 [HKG] Boatswain_Tam Members 22 posts 9,925 battles Report post #7 Posted August 14, 2021 Introduction of gambling is one thing, but introducing it to children as young as 7 is quite another. It's also one thing to keep the wallet shut, but after reading this I'm wondering whether to quit playing altogether. There is something very evil and despicable about preying on young children, and no decent human being ought to associate his/herself with this. 1 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As soon as it becomes a game i can't play for free, i'm out of here. Until then, I'm enjoying the sinking. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This is a MAJOR reason I toned back my Randoms play tremendously. I realize that while not spending money, I'm still adding value to the game by being an opponent to shoot at. In Co-op, one's presence is far less valued. 3 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Whats this "grand revolution" going to accomplish. WG is going to say something about looking into their CC program and apologize for not communicating correctly. Flambass already said he's still going to play the game when he feels like it, which still accomplishes the same goal for WG (advertising). So while he might not like something about the game and wont support is a a labeled CC, he's still going to be playing and advertising the game. Plus, look at these CCs. If they really wanted to stir the pot they could easily show the information they are talking about being covered in the NDAs. iChase talks about how they were spoken to in thier discord but still respects the NDA because he has no intention of giving up on WoWs really. 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He could as meaningfully have told us he was throwing out his collection of Barry Manilow records. Three or four years ago it might have meant something; not any more. 5 2 2 18 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
933 [TIGRB] HeidiAngel Members 479 posts 2,689 battles Report post #23 Posted August 14, 2021 Why is this happening? As a younger player I went to these CC's for advice and to learn and they ALways came through for me. LWM defended me from attacks from Rude Men when those Men made nasty comments to me. Now who od people like myself turn to? I feel as if part of my Family is leaving never to return. 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
