I've been thinking about different bloggers and forum posters who give a "call to arms" for gamers to unite together against the many evils of the universe. (I think that was a run-on sentence) It seems to me that isn't the best way to get results in the gaming world. Seriously, how many gamers do you know actually rise up against anything? With the promise of annonimity online and the distinct fact that we are not going outside to have our adventures, why would anyone expect this to work. Online petitions are only good if there is an actual name to the signer.
Here's my idea. Before a person has a call to arms, why don't you start with a call to community. Befriend people and let them know who you really are. Put a face to your name. Become a figure, not just a character. When others follow suit, then call them to arms.
Let me know how that turns out.
