Call to Action: Thank the media
Nice.
Every bit helps the cause out.
"I have something to say! It's better to burn out then to fade away!"
That's an....interesting site; especially for an article about CoH to appear on. Nevertheless, publicity is publicity.

That was an interesting read, and an illuminating parallel with the use of social media in the Arab Spring.
it was a great article!
firstly, as i was reading it i started to get teary eyed again because it feels that what we are doing is actually making some sort of an impact
secondly, as mentioned this is a huge boon in our favor as it is publicity and good publicity at that showing that we wont give up without a fight and standing together

Working on that thanks right now, by commenting on that article. Right after I dry my happy tears of hopeful sunshine.

Linked to Wil Wheaton on G+, hopefully he can spread some of his nerd culture media magic around for us!
Done.

Also linked to Jim C. Hines - he's on a lot of radars for just winning a Hugo, he's got a fairly large media presence, a strong nerd sensibility, and is a personal family friend. Hated to presume on it, but I'll do what I gotta do! Hopefully he and/or Wil are willing to start spreading this around.
I just thought of this now and haven't really looked but are any of the actors from Big Bang Theory on Twitter? Since COH has made appearances on that show maybe we could send a link of this to the actors twitter accounts.
If COH made it on that show that means someone there loves the game.
Maybe even link them with the petition as well.

Someone linked it to me on Facebook a few hours ago. It is a tremendously well-written article.

Agreed. The article seems to be critical but fair, which I always respect. It really boils down to the core of the problem, which is a corporation cancelling a popular product against its customers' wishes in the name of corporate interests.
Samuel_Tow is the only poster that makes me want to punch him in the head more often when I'm agreeing with him than when I'm disagreeing with him.

This was put up yesterday, found it now. I should go to bed.

Getting the word out is one of the big things we must do to save our family... But only done in the right way and things like this helps us soo much

I'm still processing a ton of e-mail, PMs, Facebook updates, and forum posts, so I probably still have some articles to add to this list, but I did update it with a FANTASTIC article over at GamerZines.com. Thanks for the heads-up! Okay community, Call to Action time, let them know how much we appreciate their coverage!

I thought that a friend of mine that does stories for the BBC might be interested in whats happening to us. He agreed that it might be newsworthy so who knows...

So I was talking to one of our heroes and said, "Crap, there's no way I'm going to be able to keep that 'Thank the media' thread updated with all of these links."
... [A few seconds pass as I pondered what I had just said.]
WOOT!!! There's no way I'm going to be able to keep that 'Thank the media' thread updated with all of these links!
I mean, seriously, of all the problems that could be plaguing us, that's an AWESOME one to have! So, long story short, I'm going to stop posting links to every article about our efforts here. But fear not, because we STILL need to get the word out, we STILL need to show our undying gratitude to these media outlets that are giving us the attention we need, and the NCsoft Public Relations department is STILL going to know how much traction we've got!
