Great idea, Hecubus. I'll need to change a few lines to explain my personal beef with paysites but you can count on me and my bf ... hmm, I think I can twist my mother's arm and get her to send a letter also. She doesn't play but we've been discussing the paysite problem and she's offended too. hehe
Three more letters coming up, me matey! AARRRR!!

My printer is screwed up. I won't get to send my letter until I can get my friend to print it out tonight. I'm sure her whole family will be sending one too.

Sent mine today! I was surprised how cheap the postage was - less than two dollars all the way from Sweden to U.S. I'm unemployed atm but even I can spare that amount.

I'll definitely send that letter when I'm back at my own computer. Might replace OpenHouse with Peggy, her prices are so atrocious I feel she deserves a special mention!
Thanks for sharing the letter Hecubus, you rock ^^

HystericalParoxysm: Pretty sure the last argument the paysites have to stand on is "Waaah, you're mean!" now.
Pescado: Ah, but I know how to defuse that one easily:
"Yes. Yes, I am."

I figured people would rewrite that section to suit their own needs. I wish I'd done the Vita calculation before I mailed...that offends me like nobody's business.

This is just a casual wondering - but I wonder that there can't be another campaign - don't know how viable it is.
What if all free sites shut off their downloads for a day - just one day (the same day) - and put up notes about free downloads vs. paysite downloads. I don't know that MTS2 or Insim would be in on it - but on a Saturday - what if that were to happen?
Or am I dreaming? :lol:

I don't know that MTS2 or Insim would be in on it - but on a Saturday - what if that were to happen? I think it'd be roughly akin to all the black people in the country going on a hunger strike to protest the KKK. In other words, a really stupid idea. Now if sites were to oh, say, do THIS, and LEAVE it that way, THAT would be cool. Whether it's a protest or not, the pure LULZ would be worth it!

Pescado, nobody sees that other than the first time they go to your site - I bypass and go straight to the forum.
You fail to explain your analogy here, so I don't get why it would be a stupid idea. Insanely, I'd like to hear an actual explanation for your stance.
Not to mention that the casual downloader doesn't usually see all this letter writing stuff - but the lack of downloads - that would bring it to their attention.

Eh, a day of no downloads isn't much.. a week would be better.. or closed until paysites start closing!!
