What really gets me here is how mad people are getting at the whole "community" part when really the whole thing itself is just a marketing gimmick thats attempting to turn registered BioWare game users into viral marketeers for EA.


QFT.  Everyone who participates in this contest on twitter is basically giving EA free advertising.

I mean I'm eligible and I don't give a flying fluck about this. Its just some EA marketing shark's brilliant idea to turn mindless BW fans into adbots on various social networks, for EA products in exchange for a CHANCE at winning stuff we can already BUY in about 80% of cases.

Its basically just marketing, and anyone mad about not being included in it is...might as well tattoo "CONSUMER WH*RE" on their foreheads and be done with it.

This whole deal is stupid, to be angry about not being allowed to participate is like being angry that you weren't chosen at the mall to take part in a "survey" that pays you 15 bucks if you go to several various stores in the mall and buy the equivalent of about 25 dollars worth of product from the stores to "evaluate" for the survey.

Its shark marketing, its EA making BW look like the biggest marketing wh*re in the gaming industry and frankly I'm disgusted with it.

BioWare can stand on its own two feet on the quality of their products alone. This crap is just crap.

What you need signature wise is one that says "I USED TO BE PART OF THE COMMUNITY BUT THEN I GOT WISE TO EA'S MARKETING DIVISION AND 
DECIDED TO NOT PAY ATTENTION TO ANYTHING BIOWARE DOES UNLESS IT HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH  A GAME."


Might be a bit big for a signature graphic.

Seriously people, get a grip, all you're missing out on here is the opportunity to be exploited and used by EA in a pilot marketing partnership between EA and several companies and BioWare is being used as the street corner pusher for the junk.

EDIT: Holy crap does this forum software have formatting issues.

You speak the truth but that doesn't change the fact that the incompetent marketing department managed to insult the majority of fans with their whole Community event.

Atleast it brought the community - or rahter the people who used to be part of the community together.


Hmmm... Maybe this thread is the real "Epic community event" 

What can be a better way to celebrate BioWare's 15th aniversary? RAGE THREAD! :o

Look, I can completely understand *why* alot of people are upset at this point.
It really seems like the peeps in Bioware's PR department dropped the ball.
However, I think you guys are jumping the gun here. Bioware is not one to let
their Fan Base down intentionally. And, no, the patch thing with DA:O doesn't
count because, frankly, there were a ton of variable there that we knew nothing
about and they were likely legally obligated not to talk about.

Anyway, Bioware is not going to celebrate an Anniversary with only a small
percentage of the Community. They will come up with something for Canadian,
and European Fans. Just give 'em some time. Christ, it's only Monday-day 1 for
this whole Contest thing.

I could care less about this stuff, but I've got to say... way to go, BioWare/EA. It's almost funny, albeit in a sad kind of way. :pinched:

1 Day 12 Hours 36 Minutes 47 seconds until 90% of the community totally forgets about this thing. The other 10% will be the people who are still super pised that they aren't a part of it.
