This is something that concerns me about this thread. Non-violent protest is fine. Once someone buys something, they should be free to do with it what they choose for whatever reason. In this thread, someone was angry about an issue and chose not to keep quiet about it. He did something, actually two somethings. I am angry about the same thing so I chose to support him and actually do one of the things he did.
I can't speak for him, but I believe it is true that I never tried to talk anyone into taking my stand with me. Everybody should make their own decisions about how they feel on this topic and do something or nothing. But some of the insulting comments made at us for taking this stand shouldn't be tolerated on this website and I can't understand why it is. I think everyone should feel free to say why they agree or disagree with the actions and support Iello. That's fine. But to say were are entitled or dumb or having a hissy fit, just isn't right. I expected more from the BGG followers. Even the company representative, who stands the most to lose in this argument, was much more understanding about the issue.

You are 100% right....I have every right to not support a company that I feel doesn't show loyalty to its supporters....you don't have to like it or agree, but it's my choice
And everyone else has the right to say they think you're wrong.
