I believe that everyone would like to think that GW cares about us, the
gamers. Unfortunatly they have proved several times over they really do
not pay attention to what we the consumer wants. As has been stated on
this list before they just do not listen, plain and simple. Somewhere
between the board of directors, who just want to see a steady increase in
sales, and thier consumer intrest department, If they even have one, there
is a major breakdown. They way the GW will get more money is by putting
out what we want so we will by it. Unfortunatley they put out what they
think we want, which turns out very few people actually want. But as long
as the board of directors sees black, insteade of red, they really don't
care. And they won't care untill they start seeing red on thier fiscal
reports. Unfortunatley this is an old grumble that will probably only get
fixed once GW goes bankrupt, at least in the US. Several people have
stated GW is pretty secure as #1 in England deffinetly and I believe europe
as well. I pesonally do not know since I'm in the US. If GW does not
change it's US market is going to shrivell and die, which is going to make
it harder for me to find fellow gamers in some games I really frickin'
enjoy that will really piss me off and turn me into some Mass murderer and
when I get brought to court for several hundred murders, all in the name of
khorne of course, I will blame GW and will get out scott free!!! whopee!

Legal disclamier

Some of these ideas are the product of other peoples opinions in the list
and have just been reworded here

While other ideas are simply the ravings of a college student who slowoly
descending into madness because of too much reading
