Um... Blizzard is still doing great. What are you smoking? And why would you think Viacom has anything to do with Blizzard? I don't think Viacom owns Activision, and it's Activision that bought Blizzard...
Wait. Wait wait wait. Alt0161 is the upside-down exclamation mark that is already used commonly in Spanish sentence structure. WTF are you guys pulling?!
Oh, and that can of premium Olive Oil you always wanted to try but forgot you had because it was in a bag that got lost at the airport on your way back home from a trip to Italy or some such place.
(Seriously. It's in there. Read "Life, The Universe, And Everything.")
Which is kind of a fix in and of itself. If you have a problem, just do a search for it on the forum. Chances are, someone else will have run into it in the past. Barring that, you can submit a service request in-game, and I believe there are ways you can contact Blizzard through their support page on their main website, which is done via e-mail. There are options out there. Just gotta use your head.
Actually, it's optional. Originally, your forum name would associate with a character of yours. Any one of your choosing. That leads to people creating level 1 characters just to troll and be assholes in general. So, in order to circumvent that, Blizzard did this. HOWEVER, while it's not mandatory, you may still link your forum account to a character... as well as your real ID. So, either just your real name, or your real name AND a character. I kinda like it this way, actually.
UGH! Read the other posts. Sheesh. The photos are from the NON-FUNCTIONING PROMOTIONAL BIKE that was produced for the movie. They have no pictures of the product yet, because it does not exist yet. They haven't built any yet. They want the money first, which ain't happenin'.
Hey, I ate Happy Meals and Big Kids Meals and all that other stuff when I was a kid. I practically never ate at a fast food restaurant unless they had a toy that I wanted. And even then, I ate my meal, got my toy, played a little bit, and moved on. I had constraint. Even at 7, I was showing enough constraint that I didn't need to eat four or five meals just to get a few toys. That's absolutely ridiculous. And frankly, my dad would have whupped me if I tried to get a happy meal JUST for the toy. Is that what they're suggesting? Kids want more than one happy meal because of the toy, but the parents say "Okay, but only if you finish all your food!" RIGHT? If anything, it's the dumbass parents' fault for... y'know what? Fuck it. It's not even worth me talking about. Stupid dumbass fucking world and not a single god-damned person willing to take responsibility for their shit-headed actions...
Already exists. It's called "having to get elected next time". The trick is to make sure you find out what their real agenda is so that they have to campaign on that, instead of letting them carpet-bomb your district with litmus-test issues and fear-mongering.
Here's the problem with that statement. Two four-year terms. That's the most you can get. Even if you fuck up the first term, you still have those four years in office. And if you do an amazing job as president? Then you only get four more years. There's no real incentive there to actually DO WHAT YOU SAY. The impeachment laws are total bullshit. That's basically the ONLY thing we have to keep those in power in check, and when was the last time they were actually used effectively? Never. Not once, as I recall, has a president ACTUALLY been impeached. Tried, yes, several have, but none hit that mark. Everyone in the political ring knows it. Once you're in office, you're set. Do whatever the hell you want, because it doesn't matter, and either way, it's over in just a few short years. And even after that? If you were a terrible president, you're STILL a freakin' social figure.
I hate this country. I'm getting close to giving up, if I ever get enough damn money to change anything... or move far away... Japan's really freakin' crazy, but it's looking nice right now.
Dude, I think you're missing the point...
Besides, I know of a lot of legit computer resellers in my area, and this same circumstance could crop up via that.
I think the only thing we really learned is that Turbine isn't a bunch of soulless jerk-asses purely after our money. They actually care about the consumer enough to listen to their concerns. Frankly, I always liked Turbine, and it actually shattered my image of them when I heard they were making this deal to begin with. But, now that they've backed out of it so quickly, it's given me a little more respect for them.
I never really cared for Bethesda. All their games start to feel the same lately. Fallout 3 was just a re-meshed Oblivion clone. I get the feeling they're going to stay in that direction for a while.
But, Blizzard was the obvious one, and I thought people would want to avoid them because of the whole... y'know... Activision thing...

No... Statute is right. Look it up. ... Oh, no, nevermind. Can't trust you to do that yourself. Let me do it FOR YOU.

Do you follow it up with a sly line about landing on Uranus? I bet that would work pretty damn well -- or get you slapped. Either way, though...
Nonono, the OTHER Philip J. Fry. The sad sack one with missing Beta Waves.
And it was at just that time everybody finally realized Garrosh Hellscream is the true leader of the Chinese government...

Can't blame you for that. Likely would have been WAY more entertaining, though.
But the definition of "child" is different, literally everywhere...
Actually, I'm 23.
Okay, that's it, science is getting too damn strange for me now.

Srsly. I saw this on Overclock.net last week...
I don't like the privacy concerns if something like that was ever stolen or linked into...

That was me posting, and, silly me, forgot to log in. No wonder I couldn't see all the hidden posts...
