Squid of Man

So IGN launch their "Australian wing". Thousands are...nonplussed. And not just because of the complete absence of actual Australian content.

The Aussie editor, Bennett Ring, implores you all to sign up to the IGN boards, so that they can have "a nice community bubbling and fermenting in no time". What he fails to mention is that to access half the thing you need to be a paying subscriber.

For a fucking message board. Knowing that, his desperate pleading is revealed to be not an appeal for the fostering of a community at all, but a diabolical sales pitch.
