TSR: In Ur Accounts, Deletin Ur Stuffs!

[missangelica]

I've found that relatively few spammers know what the capital of Assyria was

You do realize that "what was the capital of Assyria?" is a trick question, don't you? Assyria had multiple capitals at different times.

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

Possibly off-topic post, but has anyone seen this week's secrets? I found #24 particularly relevant to the whole accusation TSR made, saying we're all dirty copyright-infringing pirates and we all torrent the game.

I know that it's technically only hearsay, but if it is true, it is yet another (albeit small) example of the hypocrisy that envelopes TSR.

Yes. The form accepts all of them.

I had quite the chuckle when I saw that secret yesterday. I wondered if maybe someone from here might've found out that juicy tidbit and called ChazDesigns, the TORRENTER, on it.

I find it definitely hypocritical that ChazDesigns, the TORRENTER from TSR, stole the game to make his fugly designs. We should spread the word.

Could explain a lot about Chaz, especially after what he did with Renee Zellweger  .  I mean, I find it easier to learn the intricities of a new game or completely new or overhauled engine with a manual and Yarred games normally don't have such things.  Such as, I don't really need a manual for DDR, Guitar Hero, Rock Band, or relearning all of the PC GTAs but I needed one greatly for learning GTA 3, GTA 4 (when I was playing it on my BIL's 360), and Hellgate London.

Here is a thread on the TSR fourms people might want to laugh at, its talking about how other sites have threads that are spreading nasty lies about TSR being bad. Thomas said that "You're more then welcome to correct those muppets spreading lies."

That was a good read; although for the first time ever I was impressed by the brains that some of the members had in justifying why they trust TSR; this one in particular was very true:

Just because one individual hasn't had problems doesn't mean someone else is spreading a 'lie' if they have. I myself have had tracking cookies and trojans from this site. No site is perfect, that is a given, where adverts are concerned there are weaknesses that can always be taken advantage of no matter how 'safe' a place claims to be. Not everything you hear is a lie, and not everything you hear is the truth, using your own judgement is key.

True ShanOw, but most of the posts there are reminiscent of a sheep herd.  This post did stick out to me:

Well I love TSR I really do the people on this site are real Simplayers.

If only he knew about Chaz's Arring of some of the games. *looks to his copies of the full original set and his 3 disk based expansions he has for the Sims 2*

Sounds like it's placing a cookie or something, I'll contact them about it but won't get any response until monday. Try lowering your security settings and see if you can get in.

Aww, how brilliant of you Thomass.  That is definately NOT how one should work around that problem, especially if a Ubuntu user reported hijacks  a couple of posts above you.

Cala started a thread on Coconut's blog to show that we did not Pirate the games. That was the point of it.

Oh really?  I need to update 1 pic before I repost them there.  I just need to add Seasons to one of my Piccies or do another one with just Seasons in it.

[minionsRmine]

Ha, so Thomas is trying to send his minions to slap us in the face. Well, he'll need to prepare a new set of minions for the ones that will be absorbed by us.

* minionsRmine points to her name

If he wants to refute the "lies", then he needs to be a man and fight the battle that is his anyway. But because he wants to send his members to do his dirty job, that right there should show his fans that he's got something to hide.

How are we the muppets? He's the one kermitflailing...

*snorts hard as he holds back laughter*  Sorry, found it funny as I watched Sesame Street with my sister and niece this morning.  We need someone to macro a gif of a kermitflail STAT!

I'm surprised that he didn't kermitflail more when someone brought up the trojaned ads and the inappropriate ads.  In that thread nonetheless!

Here was another good quote from Thomas. One person pointed out that there is a lot of inappropriate content on TSR, and she understands some of it can slip through the cracks, but there is too much on the site to have just slipped through the cracks. This is what Thomas had to say:

We have been through our content on those occasions and removed a lot of content that, as you pointed out, slipped through the cracks. To my knowledge most of this content is removed from here - if you know of any such content still available I'd be happy to remove it.

The girl replied back with the penis dress that was posted on the BBS.


And I'll pull this into here, the thread that was linked to in the ugly paysite creation threads about that CD on Ebay that has store content and TSR content on it, someone pointed out that TSR has items on their site that poses copyright infringement, of which Thomas denied.

Hurray!  I'm dying of curiousity about what Thoma$$ replied to that.  Link to the thread, please?
