This is going to be brief because I'm tired. I don't think it was ever really about someone not being open to someone else's point of view. Despite that I think it's a pretty good and fun idea to have a radio station dedicated to your hobby (no dorkier than G4, right?), I can certainly see how an outsider would find it to be somewhat laughable. And had I been in on this thread from the beginning, I probably would have been making some jokes about it, too. Nothing personal or serious, just having some fun. The way I see it, the problem started with miscommunication, misinterpretation, oversensitivity, and defensiveness. TotalBiscuit was offended by the previous posts. His retaliation was to make fun of us. Our "side" got defensive about being called out for it. Things escalated, more WoW people came just to complain. Our side became less likely to sympathize and more eager to fight back. And now we have this thing ballooning out of control, and it might take some time for everybody to get rational again. We'll just have to see.

But, anyway, fun talking to you. Goodnight.
