Ea makes statement March 2 making paysites ok?

[Scurvy Cat]

Which, right there, is another point against thinking EA is about to endorse TSR--they'd have to spend a lot of time and money cleaning up the Exchange.

I didn't see it mentioned in the thread, but BBB has been removed from GSC2 now, for all of that crap on the blog.  They are not taking kindly to that kind of ranting, and have removed his things and suspended his account.  HERE

edit cause, well, links can be nice to have.

Good on them.  He's now put up an address, and I'm sure when he gets the inevitable mail that he will (because I know my son gets spam for an email address he put in one form only) he'll happily dragoon pirates into the peoples who did it - even if it's a mailing list thanks to a spambot.

And good on them.

Yeah, the snail mail address that he put up is for the Head of the FBI, Richmond Virginia branch.

Ah, I see. I'm sure the FBI will appreciate the spam themselves.

So, I've just spent forever reading this thread.

I just want to say that, obviously, what BBB said was EXTREMELY wrong. About Numenor? While he didn't exactly say "Yeah, those dirty pirates should get cancer", he has made it clear that HE doesn't think BBB was out of line by not saying anything about that particular comment at all, instead just saying "Yeh, Fuck you pirates". That's not cool.

[Devilfish]

Has someone actually asked Numenor if he made that comment? Someone said they'd contact him, I think. Just to verify.

[eternal_darkness]

A well deserved punishment. Why would you hope that someone gets cancer over pixels? He'll probably rant about this somewhere else and blame us for his stupidity.

Off Topic : When did BBB become an FA at TSR? I guess I missed something

[Anouk]

Well, Kathy and Eric didn't show up for months on Insimenator, basically Beosboxboy took on the role of caring for the site (shutting up everyone who was pro pirate and basically ruining the Animal Army section), and when Kathy returned he left without a word and became FA. That's probably about half a year ago.

Scotty's thoughts -

I can excuse a lot of things, but wishing cancer, or any deadly disease is inexcusable. I will not tolerate it. And I will NOT have someone like that associated with the GSC. I am highly disappointed in Yakov, who I considered a friend. I have covered for him in the past, but I will no longer do so. As you will see, his section is gone, and Yakov has been suspended from the GSC. If he wishes to apologize for his hurtful words, he is more than welcome. That doesnt meant that said apology will be accepted. You can find his site, and his words Here.

Thank you, Scotty. I don't know whether it was an easy decision for you to make or not, but it is appreciated.

- you too, Courtney (you rock like Gibraltar)

[chemistrycourtney]

lol.  I do rock like Gibralter.  It's true.  I'm also so sweet that Slugworth tried to steal me.

I can't believe it's the real Numenor who commented at BBB blog. I can't care the less for BBB, never felt the need to know him better so it's not a big loss for me, but Numenor is a different case. As Pescado said, we use to consider Numenor a good and nice person, who deserves respect and I'm still  in this mood.
Admit I'm also shocked and actually feel a bit naive right now. Can't say of myself to be a "dreamer" who just think that everything is shining and lovely but I was not prepared to this.
Sorry if I can't explain better the sense of dismay.

[Paden]

I just wanna know if you're anything like an everlasting Gobstopper after that crack...

[chemistrycourtney]

rofl.  I thought you were too tired to participate in the weird vaguely offputting orgy.
