Online Game Event Sparks Player Riot

Grimwell Online is carrying a story entitled When does an Online Game go too far?. It details a post to a news group about a world event in the newly released A Tale in the Desert 2. The online game, which simulates an ancient Egyptian culture, was full of angry players after a developer-run event used openly discriminatory language against the female gender. Details on the event can be found at the ATITD2 Wiki, and commentary can be found on TerraNova.

    GNAA freedom fighters attack mbonig into submission

    Cakedrink KillsPics - Sinclair Broadcasting Correspondent

    In the GNAA.s continued effort to combat mindless idiocy, blogging, and bigoted oppression of gay nigger rights, GNAA member Penisbird has announced victory over mindless slashbot and blogger mbonig.

    In true Hitlerian fashion, mbonig wanted to deny freedom speech to gay black men under the guise of his own nazi-esque values of censorship. .Gasgaynigs., mbonig was quoted as saying to a swooning crowd of neo-nazis ready for a golden shower of his drivel.

    GNAA member Penisbird, who is considered of one of the most gifted and intelligent members, according to the GNAT or Gay Nigger Aptitude Test, excellently crafted his arguments against the nazi, as shown here, and was able to counter every point with concise and irrefutable facts. In the usual Slashdot hypocrisy, anyone who fights for the legitimate rights of the unpopular is considered a troll and this thread was no different.

    The tragic defeat on Slashdot forced mbonig to retreat to his blog and admit that the GNAA.s posts are free speech (unlike what he said earlier) while at the same time slandering Penisbird.s impeccable character. Penisbird does not tolerate such insolence and proceeded to attack his wretched blog.

    In the most skilled fashion, Penisbird proceeded to flood his blog as a form of legitimate protest. Like an relentless flood of nigger cocks, Mbonig (which is an intentional slur against niggers) tried to squelch the massive flood of protest posts by deleting hundreds of comments but could not keep up. His next step was to disable commenting for a couple of days. The very morning he restored comments and declared that by requiring logins, the attacks would cease. Wrong. Penisbird was on the attack and continued the assault.

    After the morning offensive, mbonig quickly and embarrassingly disabled comments, declaring that .script kiddies. (the scripts in question consist of Microsoft Internet Explorer and the refresh button) do not deserve the same free speech rights he enjoys. However, Penisbird was victorious in that he caused mbonig to permanently disable comments. Penisbird vows to keep up the assault on his Slashdot posts and anywhere else he tries to oppress free speech rights online.

    mbonig claims that he is not hiding who he is. Really? What is your last name? Where do you live? Oh, it seems that you are hiding who you are. Hypocrite.

    About mbonig:

    mbonig is a mindless Slashbot and blogger who constantly tries to oppress free speech online. He is a known neo-Nazi and supports the gassing of Gay Men of African Descent.

    Scott Lockwood and K5 admins censor ad discussions that are critical of the ads.

    When Scott Lockwood posted an advertisement for his "web hosting company", he clicked the checkbox to enable comments on the advertisement. However, after receiving several comments harshly critical of his service, the discussion on the advertisement mysteriously vanished, as if commenting on the advertisement had never been turned on. How coincidental -- is the Kuro5hin administration in the habit of censoring advertisement discussions if the advertisement draws critical or negative comments? Isn't the purpose of ad comments to allow critical discussion and debate about the merits of the thing being advertised, regardless of whether the opinions are positive or negative? Is any advertisement which receives critical comments going to have its comments turned off, or is this censorship only going to be available at the request of the advertiser?

    Mr. play it safe was afraid to fly
    He packed his suitcase and kissed his kids goodbye
    He waited his whole damn life to take that flight
    And as the plane crashed down he thought
    Well isn't this nice...
    And isn't it ironic... don't you think?

    Well life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
    When you think everything's okay and everything's going right

    And life has a funny way of helping you out when
    You think everything's gone wrong and everything blows up
    In your face

    A traffic jam when you're already late
    A no-smoking sign on your cigarette break
    It's like ten thousand spoons when all you need is a knife
    It's meeting the man of my dreams
    And then meeting his beautiful wife
    And isn't it ironic... don't you think?
    A little too ironic... and yeah I really do think...

    It's like rain on your wedding day

    After all, any older and you normally have a life

    Lemme guess. You're the guy on theonion.com that threw his tv set out too, because it's a waste of life?

    I'm sick of people bitchin' because they don't feel a certain activity is "life".

    p.s. I'm older (30s) and game as well. I, like everyone else you'll ever meet, have a "life".

    The point is that any trader, even a foreign one, in Ancient Egypt who wouldn't deal with women probably wouldn't have sold much of anything, since the men probably wouldn't have dealt with him.
