Does Beckett bother vetting new blog contributors?

Warning, this link may not be SFW.

With that said, I'd like to meet this Ms. Shafer. (There, I said it. Don't judge me.)

TARGET DEMOGRAPHIC CONTENT: FAIL

I don't blame her at all and I really hope she doesn't lose a paying gig due to Beckett's ham handed tone deaf handling of this. If they handled it correctly, they might have had some fun diversionary content to go along with their industry advertisements. Coming out in the opening post and essentially calling their customers a bunch of drooling socially inept fucktards whose only romantic outlet is wanking to 4chan in their mommy's basement MAY NOT HAVE BEEN THE WISEST BUSINESS DECISION. For fuck's sake, I've gotten e-mails from people saying they like collecting cards but they can't actually share that with anyone because card collecting is for dorks and now Beckett is reinforcing that stereotype. Goddamn idiot morons.
