Statement in Opposition to the Stockholder Proposal
GameStop does not set specific minimum qualifications for nominees for director and does not have a policy regarding the consideration of diversity for such nominees. We do not believe diversity, whether of gender, race/ethnicity or any other criteria, is a meaningful basis by which to identify and assess the qualifications of director nominees nor do we seek director nominees purely for the sake of diversity. Instead, we seek nominees for director who possess business acumen, high integrity, an ownership mentality, and a deep genuine interest in GameStop. Our Board is composed of individuals who exhibit these traits.
THE BOARD UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT STOCKHOLDERS VOTE AGAINST PROPOSAL 4 —THE STOCKHOLDER PROPOSAL REQUESTING A BOARD SKILLS AND DIVERSITY MATRIX. PROXIES SOLICITED BY THIS PROXY STATEMENT WILL BE VOTED AGAINST THIS PROPOSAL UNLESS A VOTE FOR THE PROPOSAL OR ABSTENTION IS SPECIFICALLY INDICATED.

More info on the shadiness surrounding this "proposal 4":
I don't care how much money I haven't made yet, I love owning stock in companies I can get behind!
Yep, I don't even care how much I'm down. Everytime I go to a GameStop I feel like I own it.
I broke even on their stock but had so much fun buying it. When the engineered crash happened in 2007 our office was eventually taken over by GameStop. So when I saw the surge and the shorting, I was ALL IN. Weird connection
You...umm...paperhanded your GME? And you "had fun breaking even"?
That was a very unsmart move anon.
Yep - husband had cancer. All available assets were necessary. I was bummed to let it go, but it actually was a smart considering what we had to deal with/pay for.
