A thought, maybe

OK, 9 out of 10 gaming related things we read/see/hear in the media are bad or negative. But I've just thought, no-one except the gamers stand up for the games, the designers sometimes have a little say, but this is brushed off and over quickly and we all ***** online and secretly crave attention or some simple gratification even if it's from another gamer who feels the same way.

So, a thought that has been running around my head a few times the last few days is, why isn't there a support group like PETA but for games and gamers, a group that will stand up against the bad press publicly and piss everyone else off like PETA so the media eventually stops paying attention to games and moves on?

Or is there one and have I just missed it?

If there isn't one, lets have a few suggestions for acronym names please, it maybe a facebook group by the end of the next week with project goals and stuff.

Bonus points if the acronym spells gamers!

Feel free to improve on it, but I demand credit if the name used is anything like this one.

Don't make me the spokesman though, that won't end well.

I suggest you don't mention PETA. Ever. Many people here would burn you at the stake just for saying that name.

Edit: How in the hell did I misspell "here"?

Unfortuantely, I think all it would do is piss people off. While I am a fan of making the ignorant angry, in this case it likely wouldn't accomplish anything.

I think there's not a group out there defending gamers because the people defending gamers are gamers, and are too busy playing the games that the media has put on in a negative hype to go out and worry about political activism.

GAME
Games Are Mindless Entertainment

It's just a game, people! Just a game, no psychopaths involved!

We will strife for renaming "blood" in games to "Virtual ketchup", in-game "wars" are actually "play-fields" and "parents" are "authority controllers". We do not kill controllers.

Wait... WHAT HAVE WE BECOME!?
