Re: Got it!
No, I didn't completely mis-summarize, I selectively summarized deliberately to emphasize my point. I'm fully aware that you have a reason you consider valid to get on a high horse, my dismissal of this as an objection to "pretty women" was an implication that I find your position both in the minority and fairly silly by underlining that the whole basis of both the ad and the objection is because people like to look at pretty women. The fact that you find this silly reason so compelling as to cause you not just to be unable to ignore it, so important you're not satisfied to lodge a complaint, so vital as to force you to take the action of boycotting Shrapnel is unfathomable to me.
Ok, you didn't like the ad and you're taking your ball and going home. I can't believe that this is such an important issue to you and my suggestion stands that you'll have a much less stressful and more enriching life if you can just learn to ignore the low brow humor of the guy sitting next to you instead of trying to get him thrown off the bus and when that fails deciding that you'll do without bus service yourself.

Re: Got it!
Thank you Baalz! I've been following this thread (sad I know) but could not figure out how to put my thoughts into words. You have said what I couldn't figure out how to.

Re: Got it!
Way to continue your misrepresentation Baalz. No-one has demanded shrapnel change their ads, they have simply expressed their opinion of them and concluded they don't want to have further dealings with that company. It isn't because they 'failed' to get their way, it's because they have a problem with Shrapnel's conduct.
It isn't just my opinion of Shrapnel that's been lowered based on this thread. The way people with reasonable concerns are being deliberately misread, mocked and attacked by other members of the forum is just pathetic.

Awesome! Now that's what I am talking about! Any chance you guys include the
full picture (as opposed of a wide but not very tall one) in the game box? :-)
No, serious, that is a damn nice ad, at least for this particular 40 year old
gamer. And congratulation for your choice of models, although I do not think
that this is the lady from the first ad. Just as great looking, and the exact
right expression on her face.
