Long time forum troll and current moderator for the TWiT podcasting network, Dan Hendricks, is starting to become a real liability for his superiors. A group of volunteers decided that it is a time to stop the brutalisation of the innocent in #twitlive by organizing a letter writing campaign. Every time Hendricks exhibits his anti-social sadistic behaviour and kicks someone out, a TWiT sponsor gets a polite letter explaining why it is not a good idea to associate their brand with increasingly tarnished TWiT name.
The campaign has been running for several weeks now, and it seems to be working. TWiT will find it increasing more difficult to sell their adds to unsuspecting businesses.
At #TotalDrama we believe in balanced reporting, here is a post by a TWiT fan. (Not Chickenhead, the other one)
A lot of you seem to give Leo and the gang a hard time. Well I am here to defend them. If you want to shut me up then delete my post and violate my US Constituation and 2nd Amendment and the DMCA. Thats write, I am a USA sitizen. So eat it,
Here goes:
You guys wine wine and wine some more. ROFL. How about some cheeze for you’re whine. LOL. Did you ever think that the fans like the new improved twIt. Duh. I mean, wen there i s breaking tech news i finaly has a place to go. Four xample, when Steve Jobs died I turned to twIt and ELgam was awesome. They even set up a camera in his office that i love the most. Did you jakasses ever think why they did that? (No) because your morons.
So imagine, if you will, there is braking news. Like Sahatcha Nudela is hired, they dont have to waste time having Mike walk to the set. they can go strait to Mike via the tricaster (not that you even know what that high tech is) and not waste prestigious time walking two the set.
Youse you’re brains for once. The new twit rocks. I mean it has totaly transformized into the CNN of tech. In the old days they just covered stupid events and when Steve Jobs died. Now, you see them breaking in to the big stories when they break. Think back to the great moments of breaking news and it is only 8 months in. Hello, oculus rift coverage was amazingballs. I like my news breaking.
TWiT News Director Mike Elgan is seen here encouraging his listeners to double subscribe on each podcast. In this way listener number get artificially inflated and the sponsors end up paying much more for non existing customers. Surely they cannot be too happy about this tactic from the TWiT podcasting network.
