Chatty’s Mailbag: Reader Complaint

August 26, 2008 by The Chatty DM

Long time reader and one time co-contributor PM wrote me:

I’m not sure I’m satisfied with your new musing schedule. A single post a day (some non-epic…) does not entertain me enough… Where are the days of multiple cascading avalanches of text!?

I want my money back!!

Here’s the response of our resident Customer Service Rep:

Dear Reader,

Thank you for taking an interest in our Website.  Your feedback is important for us.

By looking at our records, we see that you are one of Chatty DM’s trusted lieutenants known to prod our glorious leader into frenetic waves of posting and melt his sizable brain with your Photon Project Beam.  We therefore aren’t sure if your complaint is genuine or just one of your nefarious backstabbing schemes.

Rest assured that Chatty is just testing new ways to take over the RPG world and will return to his usual style shortly.

Once again, we appreciate your patronage.

Should you still decide to want a reimbursement, feel free to write yourself a check in our name for the amount you paid so far to partake in sharing Chatty’s heavenly wisdom.

Yours Truly,

Bob Glitterclaws
Killer Cyborg Ninja Ogre
Customer Relations and Dismemberment

Feel free to send your feedbacks and comments to Bob at chattydm@chattydm.net

    =)

    This was an actual email exchange I had with my good friend PM and it was just too darn funny not too post.

    Yeah, Bob has flexible hours and I can certainly lend him for other projects you might need his ‘personal touch’ for.

    Just don’t ask for a massage.
