Thank You, EA/Popcap.. Bravo!

This custom poster was sent to fortunate community members a few months back and I wanted to make a thank you post (then) but after speaking with @EA_Blueberry , thought best to wait so we didn't ruin the surprise for those that hadn't received their posters at the time.  




The gamer tag in the bottom right-hand corner means the company spent a pretty penny customizing each individual poster:


(I photo'd my children's fingertips in the top corners of the poster so it would give perspective to its size.  Guessing this is 30" wide!  Please forgive the shoddy lighting - poster is vibrant but yellow picture tint was impossible avoid...) 

I'm thankful for EA today for many years of great games even beyond PVZ (played Madden since inception - not in the last 4-5 years... but still) and appreciate Popcap who seem to be listening to the core community more and more these days.  None of us forum members would be friends, had Popcap not invented this series that's now a (global) household fixture for many adoring families...  Pretty amazing to think of the evolution.

@EA_David  - thanks for all your efforts... we're glad you're here! @EA_Blueberry  thanks for everything and Blessings with your sports' forum endeavors... @EA_Spectre  - if you're going to be helping us moving forward, welcome to the crowd!  @EA_Lanna  - not sure whether you're still helping with this forum but always appreciate your cheerful help, too!  @pandareno1999 - this game is getting better and better for PvP.  I'm not saying you'd enjoy it just yet but with a few updates, I can see me trying to get you and a handful of buddies to come back to BfN (just sayin).  @dwooten77  - didn't think we'd become buddies when I started posting here (different consoles then - those who don't know) but really appreciate our friendship, bromo.  Enjoyed the games today.  Hope you enjoy family time and appreciate you taking the time to get in a few games.

Though we rarely mention our private discussions and/or staff efforts, I hope all our forum buddies (and unregistered regulars/readers) realize the extensive efforts these individuals and companies put forth for us.  It's an honor to be a tiny part of such a collaborative effort in this global gaming community.  Bravo, EA and Popcap! 🙏🙏🙏

    @spIash_damage Hey listen let's try to move past it, sorry if my joke seemed a little TOO real for you. I just felt like making a joke about their priorities, and I wasn't really trying to make a big deal out of anything, just saw a comedic opportunity and went for it.

    Not an issue at all - I was trying to be friendly and funny with ya and truly thought you might appreciate the humor. In either case, I hope you have a good evening.

    EDIT: somehow, my phone took out the word hope...just added it back.  Even my phone has jokes today.. 🤦🏼‍♂️

    @spIash_damage At the end of the day I hope that the game and whatever glaring flaws it has right now will get as much TLC as the posters have. And I mean all of it, to fill in GW's big shoes they gotta cover almost all them bases.

    Good deal.

    If you ever have issues in the forum, feel free to contact any staff or volunteers (Hero/Champion status) and you might be surprised how much TLC everyone here has.  You can PM any of the staff or simply @ mention them and you really will get contacted with someone being OVERLY friendly to help with your needs.  

    ...which is the spirit of this post to begin with.

    I felt the staff had their hands full the last month or so and was sick of seeing negative connotation in every single post

    Frame material. 🙂

    Glad you love it!


    We put it in a safe spot inside a shipping tube to keep it safe until we can build a true gaming room to frame/hang it.  

    Whole family loves it!
