Skate.Reel Shutdown Protest @ Vancouver EA HQ. Come join the fun!

Well first off, I am pissed they are shutting down .Reel, but EVEN MORE pissed that the website is not working, so even with a nice 1 month notice, i STILL can't download my amazing clips I have worked so hard to make.

So I am making a sign, rolling some joints, and going down to EA HQ tomorrow to protest both the shutdown of the .Reel servers, and the website not working so I can't download my clips.

Maybe it will be in vain, maybe they will AT LEAST get a tech guy on the website issue so we can make use of .Reel until April 29th.

But yea, if you live near Vancouver, come join me at the EA HQ, located in Burnaby, bring a snack and water, we will be out there from noon til 4-5. I don't care that it will probably be just me, 1 person is better than no one......

If you do not live anywhere near Vancouver, Canada, at least give me some good ideas for signs, this affects EVERYONE, thanks

They can't afford to keep .Reel running, but hey, at least they have a nice green soccer pitch!

Youre going alone? Ill bet they have security. We should make appointments not cause riots.

Fuck a protest, Storm the building with Ak 47's. and demand the skate reel to stay up forever.

Riots? You mean peaceful protests, this is Canada yo, I'll protest peacefully wherever I want!

Maybe I will go there dressed up all nice like I'm an intern or something, and sneak in the back way through the woods, pretend I was out for a cigarette, and infiltrate the building, ?????, skate.reel works again!

I laughed out loud at this.

please, you gotta do something!

sit there and set yourself on fire. you will make your opinion widely known

LOL @ self immolation

Seriously though, I'm just going to have a sign that says ...

"Fix the Skate.Reel website before you shut the servers down April 29th"

... and I'm setting up a lawn chair at the gated entrance so everyone who works there will see my sign. Maybe JUST maybe someone will be like hey, maybe we should fix that glitch in the website so people can upload their videos before we destroy this service forever.

i dont think some of them will even know what skate 3 is though

that sounds great. are you still having issues with the .reel site? it is working fine for me

Some of them will though. I'm sure the people at EA will be laughing at the 1 lone guy with a protest sign out front, and word will spread around the office, there's got to be a chance someone with web development/tech department will get my message.

yea hopefully, i hope you get more peeps too

I only play Skate 2, but yea there hasn't been any new uploads since Feb 1 on the website, none of the videos I made in the past month have gone to the website either.

You're an insane man, but if I didn't live in NS I'd roll a bag of fatties and come there and paint my belly with "SKATE CREATE 4EVER" in huge letters, yeah that would tell em.

not sure if serious or dripping with sarcasm, but thanks, i'm going to live stream it too, more info coming

Haha no it sounded a bit sarcastic but I'm serious, most of us here are just grumbling online about the shutdown, I'm 100% positive you will reach more people will a one man protest than we will.

hmmm i don't see a skate park at EA HQ yeah they ain't gunna give a flying fuck,best of luck

damn dude did you do it?

offer homeless people a 40oz each and get a horde of them with signs to go with you. it would only cost about 40 bucks for a group large enough to out power the people trying to break up your protest. don't give them molotov cocktails though they will just drink them and throw the empty bottle.

Damn the Man, Save the Empire.

...im a little worried...no news yet! looks like TheGreatPenisMonster got arrested or something :confused:

Or EA recruited him and made him head of security

lol i think gizzler is right sadly

is this Ron Jeremy?
