Re: What names do you give your ships?

September 28 2013
All the ships on my main toon are named after The Golden Girls.

USS Dorothy Zbornak, USS Blanche Devereaux, USS Sophia Petrillo, USS Rose Nylund. The rest of the ship slots, like shuttlecraft, are named after ancillary characters like Miles Weber, Stanley Zbornak, etc.

Re: Barilla: another CEO with foot to mouth sybdrome

Yeah what i read is im a bigot and not really sorry but i realise that these things are unacceptable so am pretending to try and not have people leave my brand.

The company one is likely more legit however as lets face it all they care about is marketing to as many people as possible.

To be fair, both the he and the US Division of Barilla released an apology:

Barillo Chairman Guido Barilla said:
With reference to my statements yesterday to the press, I apologize if my words have offended some people.

For clarity I would like to point out that I have the deepest respect for all people, without distinction of any kind.

I have the utmost respect for homosexuals and freedom of expression. I also said, and repeat, that I have respect for marriages between people of the same sex.

Barilla in its advertising has always chosen to represent the family because this is the symbol of hospitality and love for everyone.


US Division of Barilla said:
At Barilla, we consider it our mission to treat our consumers and partners as our neighbors – with love and respect – and to deliver the very best products possible. We take this responsibility seriously and consider it a core part of who we are as a family-owned company. While we can’t undo recent remarks, we can apologize. To all of our friends, family, employees, and partners that we have hurt or offended, we are deeply sorry.




Of course they apologized. This is just damage control. He should have had the foresight to choose his statements carefully. I would have rather heard something like: We will consider that for the future.

I'd rather him avoid the issue all-together than to have them apologize for their lack of thinking. I have sworn off that companies products. Actions speak louder than words.

You would think he'd realize it would be of benefit to his company to just keep his damn mouth shut and sell his product. Instead, he's getting bad press for being an uninformed chode and trying to walk back his statement.

Had my hubby dispose of all the Barilla products in the house. The fact that he doesn't want gays in his commercials is one thing but this guy is just so 1950's. Between the commercials and his idea of women in the kitchen...he can go $%&^ himself.

I'm still bumming around on Lamia server. >.> Lv 40 Dragoon, though, and made some really nice friends. :D In a nifty Free Company called "Balamb Garden" and am in a nice Linkshell called Circle of Trust. :) The FC is one of the nicer guilds to accept me as a member and I do more with them than many other guilds I've joined. ^.^ I'm quite happy. :)

Re: Contacted by ArenaNet's Regina Buenaobra

I'm excited about the Vent chat! It looks like ANet would like continued updates on what we think about releases and other opinions about the game. I'll probably add a separate Topic for SWVG members to voice their opinions and feedback or I may create surveys to easily collect and forward information to them. We'll be going over that during our next commanders meeting. Until then, feel free to reply in this topic.

Hello Elquin,

Here is the information you will need to participate in the chat:

Chat: 11:00 AM PDT on Tuesday, October 1

Hostname or IP:
Port number:
Main password:

We look forward to your attendance.

Moving forward, I’d like to check in with you regularly to get any feedback you and your guild members have about the game releases. It doesn't have to be an extensive email chain or anything. It could just be your high level thoughts about a release, for example. You don’t even necessarily need to stay on topic about a release. The point is that we’d like your feedback and opinions, so don’t hesitate to reach out and I’ll be communicating with you on a regular basis.

Cheers,

--
