Just Wow!
Mike Krahulik (Gabe), writing at Penny Arcade:
I got an incredible email today from a Penny Arcade reader. Dave shared with me an email chain between him and Ocean Marketing (the folks behind the Avenger controller) Trust me when I tell you that this is one wild ride. I’m serious, Mr. Toad would look at this ride and just give a slow clap while shaking his head. I have tried to arrange this as best I can in chronological order. I’ve also removed email addresses and other private information. So let’s just jump right in, here is Dave’s first mail to Ocean Marketing: See the entire email exchange. John Siracusa, Will Shipley, and Dave Nanian summed up the entire ordeal nicely on Twitter:
When you find yourself typing "You just got told bitch" in a support email, it may be time to reassess your career penny-arcade.com/2011/12/26/jus…

@siracusa When you find yourself getting into an argument with @cwgabriel and telling him he ain’t nothing, might be time to switch fields.

@siracusa So *that's* where the line is drawn. Got it!

@wilshipley The best part was that he seemed to be familiar with PAX, but didn't seem to make the connection to PA, let alone @cwgabriel
