Blizzard has already said that gay-friendly guilds are fine - it's the advertisement in-game of guilds based around RL controversies like sexual orientation, religion, nationality, etc., that is not.
So Blizzard are hypocretical liars. Interesting. Either its fine and you can advertize it in game, or its not fine and you can't. What Blizzard are really saying is "Its fine if nobody knows about it" - spineless creeps.
And the point I seem to fail to get across is, I don't want to have to use other browsers because some people can't figure out how to design their website properly.
The news sites posting them pay for them, and use advertising to subsidize. Google doesn't pay for linking to them and uses advertising to subsidize their non-payments.
What sick world do you live in if you think a site should pay to link to another side. Google provides traffic free of charge.
I fail to see how configuring your browser to ignore the specific parts of a specific stylesheet on a specific site that you don't like could possibly affect how anything looks anywhere else.
Because you can't disable it on a specific site only.
If you are on a Mozilla-based browser, look up "userContent.css". Otherwise consult your browser's documentation. Otherwise download the source code of your browser and modify to ignore the parts of/.'s stylesheets you don't like.
Yeah right, like i'm going to learn how to program because some incompetent idiots can't design it properly. What a bullshit suggestion.

"Seems pretty clear to me"
Yes, now I've heard different.
"What is the point? "
That you have to keep paying for something you can't have or own even though you feel proprietary towards it.

WoW keeps characters indefinitely, actually.
Not from what I heard.
Let's say they did allow you do download your character. You now have an XML file describing your stats, reputations, equipment, and gold. What exactly did you plan to do with this?
Thats not the point.
P.S. if you are having problems with the stylesheet,
Yes the problem is that sometimes pages show up blank. Though not always so perhaps its a combination of their new stylesheet and some adds. you can turn on "Simple Design"
I know, it looks awfull.

I see what you mean. Yes that is unfortunate - don't know how they could fix though.
I don't think it was introduced in the last patch, I think it has been there all the time - for some of us. I got into the beta and promptly stopped again because I couldn't read the font - I told them about it then, and they promptly couldn't care less.

But games are never about gear, they become that in the MINDS of some people (like you:). But a lot of the rest of us don't care, not even in Wow - you want to waste time trying to get gear - well your choice.

Because its slavery, you have to keep paying to keep your character. Now if you could download it and keep it when you stopped that would be something else.

Some of the more insane even bring up their internet connection fee. This is a bit like people who object to having to pay for gas after they bought a car.
No. It isn't. Its more like people buying a car and then complaining that they have to send a montly fee to ford.
I like a space environment, but what i don't like about eve is the tiny letters in their interface. I simply can't read them, and that is the way with most games, they seem to be designed by 20 somethings for 20 somethings with perfect vision. World of Warcraft on the the other hand has a scaleing engine in the interface, a simple addon and you can scale all items (and not just the chat as clueless support usually suggest).

I'm worried that I'm going to have to spend large amounts of money on gear to continue to play.
I don't know how old you are, but aren't you worried that young kids who can play 12 hours a day are going to get much better gear then you even when they aren't cheating?
That's one of the reasons that I don't really care if people cheat, in as much as it affects me there is little difference in the effect on me.

'we are constantly providing content'
No you aren't.
"we provide 24/7 support"
No you don't - the people there seem to take days to reply, and then usually they haven't read what you actually wrote.
Because its a real attitude about a real issues, now go play something kid and let the grownups talk.
Implicit in your argument is the idea that the reason these children are disadvantaged is because they do not have a role model for one sex.
I'll buy that - I grew up without a rolemodel for my on gender, and I think it has been a *massive* handicap in my life.
No that is just an opinion, and since you don't present any evidence for your OPINION you are just wasting our time with hot air.

I have no idea what SOL is,but Google Earth is trying to cover the Earth, but its big, it takes a while to get it all in...
So spammers must have an opt-in, yet Google must have an opt-out?
Yes, because spammers harass you with a lot of crap - you only see Google if you decide to visit them.
