TSR ATTACKS! WE CAN HAZ NEW LEGAL THREAT!

[pixelated]

They're apparently trying to threaten to sue the Malaysians, yes.

Well, that is interesting and sounds a bit futile.  Don't the Malaysians have an "Eh, you suck" attitude toward this kind of thing?

Which is exactly why having the servers there is such a good thing.

I, too, am laughing hard at the fact that it wasn't signed.

[justso]

Before I even discovered this site I once read that Pescado runs a site based in a dubious country that is renowned for illegal practices, fraud and ripping people off. I thought oooooooohh choccie dubious.  But threatening to sue the Malaysians.  Definitely a sign that TSR suffers from delusions of grandeur also a tad schizophrenic (the constant changing from I to We in the threat) So basically the culprit is a 12 ish schizophrenic with delusions of grandeur who is into sewage  big time (up to his/her neck in crap) mmm wonder who that could be. Edit. Forgot to add a sim pimping ho.

Sue Malaysians? Roffle!

TSR, your lame attempt at a "zomg legul thret" is FAIL.   

[Zazazu]

My lawyer thought the letter was even more hilarious than my playing the Sims. That's impressive.

[fway]

TSR, I hope they're doing this for our lulz. I mean, the EULA never changed. Silly Geese. Let's check out the Apartment Life EULA... whoever wrote that legal letter is blatantly lying to us, and we already knew that the EULA did NOT change.

Just as bad as saying:

<NO NAME WRITTEN> to us:
- we need ur monies pirates!
<NO NAME WRITTEN> Going to a judge:
- HALP! They has my stuffs.
Judge to <NO NAME WRITTEN>:
- YOU GET NOTHING! YOU LOSE! GOOD DAY SIR!
<NO NAME WRITTEN>
- buh I am EA friends.
Judge:
- Did you not read the EULA correctly?
<NO NAME WRITTEN>:
- It say not distrubute TSR stuffs!
Judge:
-It does not! They have every right to do it.
*<NO NAME WRITTEN> gets butthurt and storms out the courthouse.

... we'll be back in a moment ... (don't know what else to write)

[brainiac]

You, sir, are to blame for the wasted juice that just sprayed out of my nose! I demand compensation!

[Panthpirate]

<lulzy post>

 

TSR always gets butthurt because they're so jealous of PMBD's epic win.

[FilthyPriest]

I always spell it kerfuffle.  Hahaha! He should play the sims and read the eula that came with freetime.  PC's in the shop at the mo' - but Sherrie has it - all hail Sherrie. http://www.sherriesim.com/site/info/news.html

I also enjoy this quote:

I have since visited EA in Redwood Shores and had numerous meetings with the web and legal teams there.

Yet EA do nothing.
Yet EA don't change their EULA.
Yet EA don't even clear up the exchange.
No lawyer worth their salt would bother with this malarkey.



I hope when Apartment Life comes out, a kind pirate screenshots the EULA again, which will undoubtedly be the same.  I will do it if the compy is back.

kerfuffle.... yeah. TSR has lost there minds. Just a bunch of guttersnipes crying there little eyes out for money and a cookie.

They can have cow cookies.

[Requip]

This is hilarious, I've been hoping we'd get new stupid legal letters! I can't get over that after all this time, this paysite arguement is still going on.  (or maybe TSR just thinks it is?) I'm pretty sure most people have moved on and everyone knows where the booty is. 

[Silver Arrows]

I have since visited EA in Redwood Shores and had numerous meetings with
the web and legal teams there.

That TSR-EA dialogue in full:


Thoma$: Can I haz permission to charge for contents, pleaze?


EA: Yes of course you canz! Please leave a briefcase containing the $500k license fee in this dark alley here, thank you...


...sucker!

[Anyerfillag]

Fway: Love it all, but the Charlie and the Chocolate reference/line killed me

[Paden]

Did you get a mental image of Gene Wilder screaming that line, too? I rolled!

[Panthpirate]

LMAO @ Silver Arrows 

[calalily]

kerfuffle.... yeah. TSR has lost there minds. Just a bunch of guttersnipes crying there little eyes out for money and a cookie.

Question is why they lost their minds now?  I don't see anything special about now - and surely it would have been more advantageous to wait until after Apartment Life to see and crow possible new EULAs. NO COOKIE FOR TSR. Hope they cry their eyes out.
