Default Claus-Dieter Zink takes measures against Lowlands Cup team

Actually I'm not the first to use the word boycott in this thread and
the suggestion that not buying Mr. Zink's calendars would "quickly make
this go away" was posted by someone else as well.

The analogy of "rape victims" was in the context of character
assassination, not copyright infringement and I make no apology for it.

I personally find it very inappropriate to lump this issue in with
"rape victims" and so forth. We're talking about a few online gamers
who posted a picture in a website. Can we keep this in perspective?


Until the dust settles, I think it's completely inappropriate to be
urging a boycott of Mr. Zink's calendar.


After searching this thread I find that you are the first to use the
term "boycott". No one here has urged any kind of organized action
against purchases.
