Nintendo Threatens Suicidegirls Over IP Use

An anonymous reader writes "Suicidegirls (a not safe for work adult community) posted a nasty letter they received from Nintendo demanding they remove a member's page on their site because the member listed Metroid and Zelda as their favorite video games." Update: 10/28 02:49 GMT by Z : BoingBoing has an update to the story (probably where the reader saw it in the first place), saying the law firm that represents Nintendo Seattle is looking into it.

    ...I'm surprised Nintendo didn't seize on a co-marketing opportunity.

    Yep, the world looks dandy with rose-colored glasses.

    ...your opinion should be forced on others...

    From which logic you should STFU.

    ...You think there should be a "line" for what consenting adults do in their own privacy?...

    No, I was questioning where we draw lines in a public forum. Clearly consenting adults are free to engage in sex, but probably not in front of a class of second-graders.

    ...People are sheep...

    So then I take it you're okay with that part about bestiality.

    ...is that subversive for religous responsibility...

    No, social responsibility is the concept that we assist eachother and protect one another from undesireable outcomes. Links to porn sites from a page that might reasonably be accessed from work seem to me to be rather irresponsible.

    ...I submit you are smoking crack....

    Perhaps if I were, the happenings on Slashdot would not be nearly as disturbing.

  6. Twitter: Life and times of a petulant cock-gobbler by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Troll

    Twitter, you're a petulant cock-gobbling sycophant to Linux Torvaldyos! Quit taking DP from ESR and RMS's feculent cocks and why don't you try to stop sucking quite so much? Get out of your parents' basement and see the real world - maybe then you'll see how pathetic you sound, with your neverending stream of bullshit about how Microsoft is stalking you. Wasn't it you who said that Microsoft believes your insane ranting is actually a threat to them, so they PAY PEOPLE to reply to you on Slashdot? No sir, I don't get any money. I do it for the love. Someone has to go up against your paranoid whining. So get back in your cage and shut the fuck up already.

    The internet is not a babysitter.

    It should be. In case you havn't noticed: the world is fuckin falling apart. Everywhere we're on the brink of anarchy, morale is almost non-existant.
    If an animal gets hurt by accident, and is not belived to survive, it is considered humane to kill it. The same should go for humans. People like those at SG (and even more those wanting to watch stuff like that) are clearly sick beyond salvation and should be killed instantly, before they cause any more harm to their selves and/or their surrounding. Hopefully SG will be true to their name.

    Sure, but what's wrong with that?

    Um, a lot of things. Like your sense of self-worth being dependent upon sexually arousing the opposite sex. In this case, they try and hide that by claiming they pose naked for more respectable reasons, but the truth is when you make yourself out to be an object of lust you soon get all of the problems that come with actually being one.

    I frankly pity women that choose to pay the bills by selling their bodies.
