The now-27,000 strong Left 4 Dead 2 boycott group has responded to Valve's response to its negative response to Left 4 Dead 2. Pay attention, this is going to get complicated.

In case you've managed to dodge the whole soap opera so far, angry Left 4 Dead fans formed a boycott group complaining that the sequel will "split the communities and decrease the quality of multiplayer gaming" in Valve's shooter.

The boycott became quite popular with similarly angry fans and Valve responded assuring them that it will be providing more DLC for the original Left 4 Dead.

Here we are, nine days later and 25,000 members stronger in our movement," a new message on the boycott group reads. "Since the last time we posted, we had sent an email to Valve with the hopes of getting a response. A few days ago, we received such a response, and we would like to address its content.

"While we are excited about the idea of new content, we are still in the dark about it. What sort of content is it?" The mysterious group leader asks. "For all we know, it could be a new main menu screen. Is it a new map, is it new monsters, is it new weapons, etc...? We'd like to know what is going to be in this new content.

"Furthermore, when will this content be released?" He or she continues. "Is there any sort of timetable within which the content will be made available? These are all questions we would like Valve to elaborate on.

"We will be responding to Valve to follow up on their latest statement to us."

And so it continues...
