#SaveTheSporum
EA/Maxis.
We, as buyers of your product, and a gaming community, have invested around 10 years of our lives to a site you created called the Sporum. This site, this wonderful forum, has a collective record-base of our ideas, projects, exchanges, and so much more. It is the home of many memorable personalities, lots of lore, inside jokes, and a whole world of friends and users who are oddly inner-twined and connected like family. We have invested countless hours into creatively expanding your game, bringing to life its concepts, and delving into deep artistic and gaming endeavors. We have been beyond patient with your shortcomings due to our deep love of the game, Spore.
But this is too much. You are shutting down something vital to the Spore community. Let's be honest, this new site is trash. Nobody is going to use it. When you kill the Sporum, you will effectively kill the Spore community. Permanently.
We do not want this to happen. We have spent a lot of time out of lives building this community. Frankly, this is completely unfair and we as a community feel cheated.
That is all.
