Hi!
It seems pretty split so far, but I got an offer from one of the 40k
forums for 30 names and e-mail addresses. So that tips it heavily in
favor of doing something.
I need to hear from more people though. I'm not sending this with less
than 100 names.

I don't think that is such a good idea just to leave them to it. We
left them to it when they were writing epic 40K at look at the bloody
mess they inflicted on us! No, something needs to be said. If epic is
ever to be returned to its former glory then the direction they are
taking leads it into the abyss to be forgotten. The petition is a good
step and the names and emails of every epic member opposed to the
current EA should be listed and sent. Other communities need to be
contacted to do the same. If a full scale mobilisation of the epic
community can be acheieved (And mass emails and protests are to be
sent) then it might be enough to shake GW into choosing a better
direction for epic. I can just see jervis face when he comes to his
machine and has 9 million new emails waiting for him! 8¬) Maybe then
he will swallow his pride...
