"Pulling a Smedley"
The act of completely and blatantly destroying an established game and customer base in favor trying to bring in a dumbed down and inferior product to a potentially non existent market.
Let's use this in a sentence shall we?
Softwate Producer: Hey I was thinking we can make tons of cash if we take our current product, ignore the current user base and totally change it for the worse!
Dev: Oh my god you're pulling a Smedley!
"When they changed Jedi in Publish 9, I did not complain as I was not a Jedi"
"When they stopped fixing the core game in favor of JTLS, I did not complain as my prof was not broken."
"When they did the combat balance and changed the combat aspect, I did not complain as my toon was improved."
"When the NGE came out, I did not not complain as I was able to get a Jedi."
"When the next update came out that finally affected me, there was no one left to stick up for me."
