Always looking for a fight, aren't ya?  I actually wasn't trying to be patronizing.  I meant it.  Lately I have been around some people that cannot fathom evil stuff like that and I was thinking you were the same.  Way to go, seriously, at proving me wrong.

You even think why I might be vague?  I don't want to give them ideas.  Hell, I didn't even want to mention at first that I'm not on that list because I don't want them going, "Well, looks like we missed some people.  We have more work to do."  I still did though because I thought it might help us figure out where the list came from.

You can try to downplay this as much as you want in your own mind, but by doing so you continue to say that tsr is not that bad and what they do is not serious.  To me, this feels like a pattern you are trapped in.  It's almost like you were in an abusive relationship, got out of it, but still love him (tsr) and make excuses for him even year(s) later for stuff in the present.  While I agree we shouldn't get hysterical over it, I don't think we should downplay it or say that it is in any way shape or form "okay", which I think you do by playing devil's advocate for tsr repeatedly.  You also speculate on coconut's identity and motives a lot, which I thought we had a consensus on that that was not okay to do.  I'm not even sure if you realize you do it though--or maybe I'm wrong.  Maybe my interpretation of your posts this past year have been wrong.  Someone will probably jump in after I post this and tell me that I'm full of it or agree with me.  We'll see.

Considering how high you are on that list, I wouldn't be surprised if someone did sign your name instead of their own on that BlueSoup petition for the lulz. I know they like posting as you on MSTY from time to time. He/she probably used a fake last name on the petition if it does turn out that's where this list came from.

From what I understand, he/she is trying to say that by being on that list, whoever compiled it and is spreading it around is falsely calling them pirates and hurting the peoples on that list reputations.

I'm sure there are many like me that either had some stuff going on so was away for a bit and also just lurked for a while because they had nothing new to say as well.


Bless you for not knowing what they could do with that information.  Truly your mind was never meant to be used for evil.  Personally I can come up with several things that they could do, but I question whether they would go that far.  Considering how they have already lied, hacked, DDOS attacked, shushed with money, sent trojans and viruses to their own staff, and more making a list grows longer every day, they go farther into depravity and lawlessness.  So I don't think you should be looking it through your moral compass, but through Thomass'.

And yes, I'm thinking the first person was Blue too.

Here's BlueSoup saying how many she had on the petition before it got hacked: 629.

Well, I didn't sign the petition and I'm not on this "pirate list".  Does that help?

ETA:  The petition did get hacked, didn't it?

ETA2:  And why is there no "1" for the list?  It starts at 2.

Lol at Thomass thinking we're dead.  Just 'cause we aren't being spammed by the same questions over and over anymore and he's not over here trolling atm doesn't mean we're dead.

And I disagree with you, Darqstar.  It's fine that you personally do not care that they have your information, but I daresay quite a few of us holds that information dear.  It's also not just a matter of the information itself, but the intent behind it.  It's malicious.  Some of the people that hold that information are responsible for many morally reprehensible and illegal things.  Who knows what they were/are planning to do with it!

Skimming the list I see some big names, but the majority of them aren't a part of this at all.  I agree with Pescado.  They aren't pirates at all.  They're people that have been branded as such because they probably linked to the booty once or said something vaguely anti-tsr on one of the many forums that do not protect email addresses from being seen.

*peeks in and looks around*

Well, doesn't look I've missed much during my absence.  I see you guys went ahead and did the obligatory every 3 month discussion about us being too mean and scaring people away from the cause and the phorum.  We might as well make a separate thread of it and have it stickied and locked so we won't have to have this discussion ever. again.  I want royalties for my contribution, btw.

Oh and TSR asking for donations for their free (for now) tool while implying that they hired two new employees to work on the tool exclusively when they didn't?  Ahahahahaha.  I bet Steve came up with that ball of lies.

So did Texas, but no one seems to remember that.

That looks like Hedda Lettuce.  Is it? 

I will not be using tsr tool made items in my game and if I had any power, I'd be encouraging people to shun those that do create with it and have them labeled similar to being trashcanned.  It may seem extreme, but at this point after all these years, I see choosing to use this tool as an act of betrayal of the free community.  It truly is us vs them as tsr has been playing it since the beginning and the more tsr tries to act buddy-buddy, the more we should fight back.  

In the words of our resident potty mouth, tsr can shove their trojan horse up their ass.  Any "gifts" they give are pure poison and I'm disgusted by those who are so readily forgetting all the cyber crime tsr has done against the free community all these years just for a shiny that is already known to have a friggin' keylogger in it!  It just goes beyond all words.  

Anyone that associates with them will be burned.  You're awesome, Inge, but your tea cozy is on fire, whether you realize it or not yet.  (Not that you care.)

I won't believe it either until Wes says so on another site like his own site.

Years ago, I was told personally that the reason why the approval system seems so erratic is because they allow lower quality work from new creators and put those creators in a probation period in which they are expected to improve.  Eventually they will be held to the same standards as the older creators.

Although MtS is a large site, it's still a privately owned site.  It's up to the discretion and taste of the mods on what gets approved.  I know that can be frustrating, but it is how it is.

*wonders when the phorum became a place to whine about MtS as she remembers someone else doing it recently here too*

Seriously, Act, if you have a problem with the way they do things over at MtS, then go bitch at them on *their* site.  I know Pescado is on the back end of a lot of sites, but MtS isn't one of them.

I read the thread on MATY and Rohina said she had access to the Zazzle account.  Go ahead and order the shirt. 

Also--he can't buy some sunscreen?  Really?
