Because 1up is filled with advertising... although not to the extent of GS.

The only thing with Gamer 2.0 is that the email confirmation for registring is messed up right know but i'm talking with one of the people that work on the site and there trying to get it fixed before the 3rd... check the site out yourself if you want. oh and mods THIS ISN'T ADVERTISING it's just a discussion about other sites.

We can not do 1up.. i propose using the image in my sig... although the forum is being patched up at the moment it is very clean site... and no advertising.

Exactly what we need

Even a week makes little difference. I mean it'll have some affect but if everyone comes back it's AOK from a revenue point of view. These sites are paid on CPM for ads (CPM is cost per thousand) if anything it'll make a small dent. Each time you want to go to gamespot you go through an ad... which they make money on. To really make our point we have to make them lose enough money to realize who has the power.

Guys... if you want to make a mark we have to leave until something drastic happens. If you want to leave a day go for it but you will not be proving much

Do not commit account suicide, this well only hurt our side. Be mature and post a well thought out opinion, don't let your frustration be vented through pornography or racial slurs as others I have seen.

If anything, go to other forums and bring up the same issue that's been presented here. Come back to Game Spot once in a while to continue fighting for the freedom of game reviewers to express their professional opinion.

In the end, if this gets worse, we as consumers/gamers will lose. Reviews are meant to inform us if a product is worth the price. When a reviewer gets fired for telling the truth it is cause for serious concern. I'm not trying to imply that this is the first time this has happened, but it is the first time we're given the information needed to fight it.

I have tried doing this, and my thread has got shut down. GS needs to learn that they are not the ones in charge. We have to boycott until our demands are met

don't just boycot for the day guys... boycott until there is a written apology... until we are given what we are asked for.
