They did it again

You = blind. Apparently you need to learn how to read before you comment on what others say. Better yet, you should have TWO hemispheres for your brain as well. I know why Securom is present. It is a copy protection device. It has nothing to do with my thoughts, your thought, or anyone elses thoughts or motives. The Securom controversy lie in how it is introduced and what else it does besides copy protection, which in and of itself is not exactly a legal premise. I am why anarchy will never work? Pshaw. I am why it will work because I would most certainly have any brain dead ignoramus like yourself deported. You are the problem, not the solution because you do not educate yourself or disengage your mouth before you hide behind your pc keyboard and sprout imaginary balls full of self-righteous drivel & falsely inflated ego self stroking. You my dear boy, are a coward that needs to learn how to conjugate a verb before you get all holier than thou. It amazes me that you can wipe your own ass. I think what this boils down to is that anarchy offends you because you're some erectionless right wing nut job.

This is typical of someone who doesn't have a legitimate argument - they resort to slinging insults and making personal attacks rather than offering a coherent rebuttle.

 I liked how it said to learn to follow the rules of chaos. And how it'd have the authorities deal with its opponents..

 That's not anarchism, that's tyranny. Who's the "Nazi" now, huh? :roll:

When I see a reference to Nazis in a post that's not about the actual Nazis, I know there's been a serious cognitive disconnect.

For Pete's sake, Godwin's Law

Thank you, Samantha. I was just about to call "Godwin" myself.

[SamanthaS]

dasha, that macro is awesome.

I think some calls and letters to some state representatives about copy protection are in order.

That appears to be the only way this might change. And I've done this along with alot of others. (thanks Cala!) I've been trying to get people to do this for a long time. I wonder how many people have actually taken any action such as letter writing or calling in complaints?  :?

Electricstatic, I'd like to apologise to you hun.. I was not meaning to insult anyone under 30. I should have been accusing freoninferno of a lack of commonsense and maturity instead.

Absolutely no worries. I understand where you were coming from.

Godwin's Law, you say?

[SamanthaS]

Electricstatic, before I click...that's not Goatse or anything is it?

[calalily]

No - I click with gay abandon - promise it isn't.  Goatse hasn't been sprung unsuspected on me yet - I went looking it - god help me. I....went.....looking......for.....it.  :shock:

[Duckie]

Goatse hasn't been sprung unsuspected on me yet - I went looking it - god help me. I....went.....looking......for.....it.  :shock:

You went looking for Goatse? OMG. *falls over laughing*
Well, we already knew you had a twisted mind. That just proves it.

[SamanthaS]

I did the same thing. I belonged to a board that always threatened goatse but never linked to it so, rather than look stupid, I googled it.

And then I went blind.

[calalily]

Goatse hasn't been sprung unsuspected on me yet - I went looking it - god help me. I....went.....looking......for.....it.  :shock:

You went looking for Goatse? OMG. *falls over laughing*
Well, we already knew you had a twisted mind. That just proves it.

This just proves any claim I might make to being a knowledge sim - how often do those stupid buggers want to be struck by lightning - well I rolled an aspiration to see goatse, and did it.  

Curiosity *could* literally kill this cat!

[Saraswati]

:lol: Popcorn anyone? Watching freoninferno's over the top statements and everyone's reactions is now becoming highly entertaining...

freoninferno your arguments remind me of the old analogy from Yes Prime Minister

All Dogs have four legs
My cat has four legs
Therefor, my cat is a dog

Just because EA has done something stupid and wrong and put software on your computer that they shouldn't have, doesn't mean they're indulging in Police State tactics. It just means they're getting big enough that they think they can get away with anything, silly buggers..  But keep going with your statements because I'm now finding you highly entertaining.. It's like watching Mikey or Jan at their best (not that you're in their camp)

No company is immune to changing times.. IBM and Microsoft have gone through patches of being the predominant IT company but have misjudged changing times and the mood of the public very badly.. Very famously the President of IBM early on said that there was perhaps a world market for five computers. EA is not immune if they start misjudging what people will or will not accept, and in the end, that's the thing they forgot when they did somethin insulting like put potentially dangerous software on people's PC's without warning them.

This thread is now invaded with people trying not to loose face and keeping at it... how do I fit Nazi's in there... hmmm....
I think I can fit teletubbies in here...

Again!
Again!
