I don't think anyone is really "offended" per se. I know I am not. I did mention in the other topic however, that I thought the line, published in a game manual that is meant to be read by a wide-spectrum of people, is unprofessional behavior. Most writers would not seek to act so..well, I guess the best word I can think to give it is "juvenile"
because it is in no way gentlemanly.

I've never read or even seen a Warmachine product, so what information I do get, I get from here. But whenever I look at a product, I do expect a level of mature behavior, not what I would encounter in a bar.

I still think it funny that they got so upset about a games tag line and the supposed bad customer service(which they obviously offered as more proof that PP hates/disrespects women) yet they see nothing hypocritical about attending a con that promotes and facilitates the objectification of women by having scantily clad women hawking goods at just about every booth (some of them known porn stars). Heck they even had a bikkini clad girl on display in a glasss aquarium...
