This is like when Maddox from TBPITU had a customer relations problem with Orbitz many years ago:

Lol I had forgotten about this.

what.in.the.fuck.

seriously

The best part is, the correct spelling @oceanstrategy is available.

 

[Barrett2]

He just changed it to @OceanStratagy - he still can't spell!

Do you know the Mayor of Boston? Didn't think so.

I find it odd that the guy is a total shit as a PR guy, but apparently has a fantastic reputation a s an ebay seller.

This can't be real.

I'm pretty convinced it's some viral marketing experiment.

GOLD

My sides hurt

This is going to kill my whole morning, isn't it

Get @oceanstrategery!

Also, this is great - he takes articles from Forbes and BizReport and posts them on his site like it's his company's own research.

[Emitan]

Hahahaha, even places like Overclocked Remix are retweeting pictures of his deleted Tweets.

HAHAHA holy shit this is amazing!

 

[Sethtimus Prime]

I'm pretty convinced it's some viral marketing experiment.

At this point I'm hoping so.

 

[Zoibie]

Oh man, this is just gold. All of it. GOLD!

 

[Whimsical Phil]

This whole thing is fairly amusing, but I have friggin' lost it with the marketting=>stratagy Twitter switch.

I have been laughing for about two minutes straight here. It's just too perfect. Too amazingly perfect.

 

[Emitan]

I've got to go! But I should have fun with this later.

 

[spirity]

I'm pretty convinced it's some viral markatting exparimant.

there we go

[TheSeks]

No such thing as bad publicity? Tell that to BP. The only people who say that are people who have no understanding of marketing. Presumably the same people who can't even spell it.

Yep, BP stations around here are still dead not even nearly a year after their oil spill. Good job killing the Gulf industry, BP.

The fact this dude isn't spell checking is crazy.

[GotEmRunnin]

I think we need to start a new hashtag in honor of Paul.

#OceanSwagg! The two g's are for the double standard he has for great customer service.

Signs of a genius folks

 

[SHAZOOM]

As I posted in the thread gaming-side, everyone comes off poorly in this exchange. Dave (WITH A V!) comes across as a petulant manchild, the PR rep is just terrible, and the Penny Arcade dude appeals to his own authority. It's a clusterfuck of stupid.

Just requoting. Don't mind me.

 

[fernoca]

Awesome thread, keep it going guys (and the one girl )! XD

 

[dave is ok]

You should have bolded Goodfella's too

 

[Wario64]

I am loving this

 

[LiK]

he must have autocorrect off or totally ignoring it.

 

[itsgreen]

The best part is, the correct spelling @oceanstrategy is available.

Now he is just trolling

 

[zethren]

Someone took the correct spelling:

[Maddness]

quick. someone grab @oceansolusions before he makes the inevitable change.

 

[truly101]

The company I work for sells electronics (not game related) and sure enough, manufacturing issues happen. However, if I ever answered one, just one customer like that in an email, phone call or whatever, my ass would be on the street. If the powers that be condoned that behavior then we would all be on the street.

I have found that while some customers are never satisfied and enjoy being angry, most of them them understand things happen. Treat them like a human and actually follow up with them and you'll win them over, even if you can't change the situation.

 

[Incendiary]

What..I don't..what...what's going....what....what?!

Welp, this Ocean Marketing guy is in for some fun now.

 

[VeryGooster]

I desperately want a quote from the mayor of Boston.

 

[infinityBCRT]

I thought you made a funny joke.
Then I clicked the link..... now it's a sad joke.

Yeah. Its just sad and exploitative to make fun of him at this point guys. Don't think its funny anymore.

[Quadrangulum]

He didn't even need to be competent to avoid this. I doubt anyone would have cared if he brushed Dave off with generic, uninformative replies.

 

[vaelic]

Can't be real

Yeah I can tell.

thanks for the heads up

 

[GotEmRunnin]

Exactly. He would have gotten away pretty much scott free had he simply responded with generic responses. I guess when you down with that #OceanStratagy you live by the beat of your own drum.

 

[Neuromancer]

Penny Arcade is getting slammed, the GameJournos guy made a mirror of the whole thing here:

http://t.co/OW0H6PqA

 

[Kave_Man]

So is there a reason we haven't heard from the actual maker of the controller? You'd think they'd want to say something at this point or at least try to distance themselves from the marketing dude?

 

[Jobiensis]

You just don't understand marketting.

He killed them and keeps them in his freezer...
