| Subject: | I'm going to Boycott Dragon until they Publicly apologize to Terry Ashley |  |
| Date: | Dec 7, 2006 |
| From: | Tony Leyva | |
I am not going to purchase or trade for another Dragon Product until such time as Dragon publicly apologize for the manner in which they have treated Terry Ashley at PMMS. He, as are we all, is entitled to his opinion, if someone disagrees prove the point fairly and straightforwardly. Terry has been wrong before and has graciously corrected his error. I believe it is time for Dragon to react in a like manner and retract their statements and apologize to him publicly. I will regard them in a better light for doing so.
This is not an invitation for a flame war, there have been enough of those to prove that a number of modelers are also upset by Dragons heavy handedness in this matter.
I’m not expecting everyone to agree that this is the right step to take but if you want to take the same position please add a reply below. Perhaps if enough of us feel the same way and defer our Dragon habit for a while (I know I have enough models to last my lifetime without buying more of them…. But what a year it’s been for great kits!) they might just get the hint that they have overstepped a line here.
I hope this doesn’t get deleted by the moderators of any of the sites (Track Link, Tank Talk, Armorama ) I am posting this on but I will understand their need to maintain their commercial relationships.
I’m going to miss Dragon and Cyber Hobby for a while which will make me sad, but it is true that while there is Free Speech, action still speaks louder than words.
