Dear Friends & Fellow Scapers,

When I placed my boycott posts http://bboard.scifi.com/bboard/browse.cgi/1/5/984/139537, http://bboard.scifi.com/bboard/browse.cgi/1/5/984/2315012, and http://bboard.scifi.com/bboard/browse.cgi/1/5/984/2315249, I was pleased with their reception. In case you missed it and it gets buried in the board, here is a recap with an addendum:

BOYCOTT THE WHOLE CHANNEL (AND USA NETWORKS)! JUST STOP WATCHING IT!

I am very disappointed with the cancellation of Farscape, and how the network is once again trashing a show despite its fan-base. I have no desire to ever give another Sci-Fi Channel series a chance again because we have been burned too many times (I-Man, First Wave, Etc.). Why give any other Sci-Fi program a chance if we'll just be ignored and ultimately let down in the end.

They can't see us because they are blinded by the numbers (production costs and ratings), but they'd have to take notice if their precious new projects (Taken, In Search Of...) lost them viewers.

DON'T WATCH THEIR NEW SHOWS AND MAYBE THEY'LL SEE THE LIGHT. A CHANNEL IS NOTHING IF IT HAS NO VIEWERS!!!

Now let’s place the spotlight on our cause. TAKE ACTION! PLEASE DO THE FOLLOWING EXACTLY AS I HAVE LISTED HERE:

1. Copy the text of this message.
2. Place a NEW POST on this board (and any other science fiction, Sci-Fi Channel, or Save Farscape boards or sites you visit) with the subject “BOYCOTT SCI-FI”, “BOYCOTT USA”, or “THEY TOOK OUR SHOW. BOYCOTT TAKEN!!!” Maybe we can flood the boards with these subject headings.
3. Paste this message into your post so it always stays on the boards.
4. If we can get enough posts on the boards, perhaps we can make another news item that would make Sci-Fi and its sponsors take notice!

Just remember folks that crackers do matter if you have enough of them.


Best wishes.
Traltixx
