Considering we're in agreement that poor language usage lowers the image of any company, all I'll say is the "significance" of a public statement is always relative. I assure you if a prosecuting attorney needed to prove Nexon's inability to even communicate properly with their consumers in order to help strengthen a case against them, even seemingly "insignificant" public correspondence such as this would be used against the corporation. There's a reason why Miranda rights include the clause "anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law." If something can be taken a certain way, it will be used that way. Perhaps an even better analogy would be that of employers and controversial social networking photos. You may think that picture of you from last weekend's party with your friend holding a red cup looking shitfaced and you holding an Aquafina is "insignificant," but who can tell what some employers might think.
