[QUOTE="DDK, post: 609520, member: 6469"] [b]Re: Re: Re: Re: What're yah gonna do about it?[/b] Sorry, I sometimes let my passions run a little wild, especially when I'm waiting on important emails and end up staying up through the night and drinking twenty cups of coffee! Lol. But... having said that... until now, after a good 10 years of engaging in the hobby at the above level of interest and passion, I've never heard of the mentioned activities. I've heard of GAMA and Origins, however AFAI was concerned, they were some foriegn legion organization, hijacking gamers from around the world and pressing them into their service, lol. In other words, their impact was unnoticable and so I never registered them on my radar. Maybe that's because I'm in Australia and they don't do much here, I don't know. Maybe it's because I've never been to a Con and that's the only place I'd see them active. But even then, if their aims are to expand the market, shouldn't I have heard of them outside of gaming circles by now? Will do. Again, I meant no offense by what I was saying and I only had a cursory glance through the website. But like I said, shouldn't GAMA's influence have been felt by now? I'd be willing to bet that, outside of the industry, hardly anybody knows who GAMA is or what they do, which is sortof what I'm saying shouldn't be the case. It reminds me of when I used to do volunteer work for greenie organizations. There were several that I went to in order to see where best I could fit in and thus contribute the most. There were distinct differences in the way they tackled the problems. Some were virtually militant, some were political and others were just a bunch of people feeling useless and wanting to socialize with other useless people. Only one of them actually achieved anything worthwhile, and that was the one I ended up sticking with; the others were all talk or their actions were ineffective. Has GAMA actually achieved anything?
