Yeah and that contest ended in crap. Quite often a page renders mostly blank for me - the sections to the left might be there, but there is no content. It isn't always, so perhaps it is related to the adds, but it came about at the change - and nobody cares. Hurrah!
This is the beauty of Steam and how independent publishing works - the same way everything else does. Have a good product that people like and enjoy using? Sell.
And even if you don't have a good product, rip people off;)
ACs are modded -6. I don't read you, I don't mod you, I don't see you. Don't like it? Don't be a coward.
That is a logical fallacy, there is nothing cowardly about not having a login - for one thing it protects you against kiddie moderators who believe everybody which disagree with them is a flamer.
Watch out when you bash the US for not entering Kyoto, which is a fraud and a Trojan horse. Note that even the "environment loving" Democrats voted overwhelmingly against the treaty (I think the Senate vote was 99-0). Even using the models it is based on, it would not be possible, after 100 years, to measure the effect of Kyoto on global mean temperature. Its real purposes are two:
1 - improve European competitiveness over the US
Well that clearly shows you for the "religious" paranoid crackpot you are.
OOOh you can't proove anything! Its because of idiots like you that the world is going to hell in a handbasket, by the time the can prove it 100% it will be waaaaay to late to do anything about it.
I realize that nowadays, politically correct posturing trumps common sense
Which you just proved with your idiot post. GLBT are not discriminated from playing the game, or from starting clans, but they are (or where) banned from bringing real world issues into a totally fantasy escapist game.
Hey dweebo, the whole point of mmorpgs is social interaction - and most of the time about things not related to the game.
I don't have to have "a model" to express disaproval.
You're quick to say that it's crap, but offer no alternative at all.
It is not required, infact that's their job not mine.
How are they to make money?
Not my problem.
Or should they even approach online delivery at all?
You keep going on about what they do - I don't care what they do. If they offer me something that I would be willing to pay for, well then I'd pay for it - otherwise they are just another bunch of greedy noise makers that i try mostly to ignore. Free, high-res divx downloads with no commercials. Great, sounds like a winner. But I have a feeling if even if they did that, there would still be people like you who complain.
Opponents of freedom of speech - like you - are always adding a ton of restrictions, many of which boil down to "you can't have it if you disagree with me". Well, though its freedom of speech wether or not you like the topic.
Slashdot Mirror
Easier to set up a police state...
Becuse they game games not movies, they don't have enough people to work on that.
Then you should give up moderating on slashdot forever.
Oh why must the world be filled with them...
7 weeks anually, in Denmark - but then noisy brats can be a real stress *g*

Is that Morena Baccarin has been cast for Stargate SG1 :)

Sad world on so many levels.
After all nobody ever cracked that.

And that, is why you are part of the problem not the solution.

We don't care if one of our members is gay because IT DOESN'T MATTER.
It doesn't matter to you idiot, but it does to some people - stop trying to be a dictator.
So genius, enlighten us with your model.

You are probably thinking of yourself.
Opponents of freedom of speech - like you - are always adding a ton of restrictions, many of which boil down to "you can't have it if you disagree with me". Well, though its freedom of speech wether or not you like the topic.
What is the purpose of your complaining?
Its called exercising ones freedom of speech.
Forget the morons above when they complain about "oh, it's the day after? WAH WAH WAH" or "Can't skip the commercials WAH WAH WAH".
People with a higher IQ than yours are pointing out this is a bad model with nothing of value to most customers.
They're trying to embrace a new delivery medium and you these idiots are fricken complaining about it.
Don't be an idiot - just because someone tries something different doesn't mean its good or should be applauded - certainly not this.
But no, months ago people were saying this is what they should do, and now that they're doing it, it's not enough
I don't know what ass you had your head up in, but I've never asked them to do THIS - this is crap.
This is the problem with slashdot noadays, a bunch of whiny intolerant kids modding junk up and insight down.
In a lame streaming format? No thanks, offer divx or svcd and then we'll talk.
On another note, how about fixing your website - its far too wide and doesn't reflow as was the intent of HTML...
No, he is pissed that people who are not authorized to use it are abusing it, at his cost.
