Following last year’s surprise Worst Company In America victory by Electronic Arts, there was hope that the video game giant would get the message: Stop treating your customers like human piggy banks, and don’t put out so many incomplete and/or broken games with the intent of getting your customers to pay extra for what they should have received in the first place. And yet, here we are again, with EA becoming the first company to ever win a second Golden Poo from Consumerist readers.

Internet polls are the best way of determining how bad a company is.

Looks like Dorkly made a parody picture of EA's response to the poll.

Missing the point.

This is more about sending a message than finding the objective worst company. Does BoA or what have you care about their standing in online communities? Probably not much, at least not as much as a videogame company does. EA isn't the worst company by any stretch, but them taking the poll might actually make them consider their standing with their consumer base, or at the very least result in some amusing PR statements.

Getting the message through in an internet poll is pretty clearly a lot more feasible than getting people to stop buying madden.

I think EA needs to make some new EA IPs that are really good.
