 Buck Melanoma, Moley Russell's wart.  Not her wart. I'm the wart.  She's my tumor, my growth, my pimple.  I'm ''Uncle Wart." Just old Buck ''Wart'' Russell, they call me. Or Melanoma Head. They'll call me that. "Melanoma Head's'' coming.  |

 The obvious ending to all this is that we all get paid by different companies, nay, different divisons of the same company, telling each other how good game X by company Y is and how game Z by company Y is so crap.

 I know some companies who do that. I think they call it guerilla marketing. I call it bad marketing.
 It's lazy marketing. Guerilla marketing is just a buzz word ego-centric creative directors use to make themselves seem smarter and edgier than they are or can ever hope to be. The gaming industry has used forum-whoring for years because it is lazy, uninventive and impotently ignorant of how to sell its own product to a refined audience.  This is why games marketing revolves around gibs, tits and forum cum-guzzling.  |

								I've always wondered about the All Black People Eat Watermelons | 
 It would be a dead giveaway on f13. We love to hate. If somebody were to talk up a games console that is fragile and overheats, or a portable games platform launched with next to no worthwhile games or a twitch-oriented reworking of MMOG that left it devoid of players, we'd see through it right away. Bwahahaha. 
 The only person who comes close is Schild      can one infiltrate one's own site?I was thinking, if I were going to hire a mole, it would be the site admin.  I mean, then you don't have to worry about being found out and banned.  If you do get caught you can burn all the evidence in one mad "format c:" and you have a problem no more.  Your admin 'mole' could go on lengthy diatribes about how everything on the market is the same, and then at the bottom point out that that doesn't apply to the awesome console games that are out there.  If ever a competitor is stealing all of your market, you could have that admin spew hatred about said competitor, not having to worry that he'd ever be baned for trolling endlessly about his 'pet peeve' of the year.. You could hire him to spin endlessly about "blaming the right people" at a game company that has tried to do nothing but screw it's customer at every turn..  I mean it should be easy to find one right?  Just look around for a site with a bunch of banners begging for advertising.  Or maybe find a burned out site admin, buy the site from him, and install a new head that had barely been part of the community before.  *shrug* I could think of a half a dozen ways to do it.. Nah.. it makes too much sense to be true.. :) |

 sorry.
 
 If you check the games forums on Quarter to Three there's some posters about who could be classified as suspicious. Lots of overt marketing weenies, journos and industry types there tho so cant tell for sure.

 If you check the games forums on Quarter to Three No. So very no. I'd like to think you love yourself enough to not do that. |

 I can't be the mole.  I can't sell shit.
 If I could, you'd all be playing CoV.
 
 Therefore, numerous companies should send me money to become a mole, because I am the least likely suspect.

 NVidia gives hardware away to create positive word of mouth, news at 11.
 Heh, this (practice) is exactly what I was referring to when I made my post above.  The only people that should be surprised by this are niave fools living in thier parent's basement thinking they are running a hard hitting expose news organ from thier laptop.

 At the moment it's even a 'Ron' sandwich.  A fate from which the real world has, thankfully, been spared. |

 If you had seen what that unicorn had been getting on the other board you would know that a Ron sandwich is the least of it's problems. |
