Games rules say: Run around in this area and kill NPCs and you get extra XP; But watch out, players of the opposing faction can fuck with you.
This guy was playing the game right: As a hero, his job is to fucking kill villains. I would do the same thing.
IMO it's the people trying to discourage him that are the social misfits. Threatening a guy with physical injury, despite the unlikely nature of them being able to follow through, over a video game, is pretty childish.
I bought this game, played the freebie month + 1 month, had to let my account lapse due to having a busy life and at one point thought about starting it up again. What I didn't realize was I would have to buy another boxed copy to get a new code, since I had let mine go for too long.
Carmack also reiterated that the current plan is to open source Doom 3's engine sometime next year.
Carmack: "What we can't do is we can't take time away from [other projects]... it does take effort to get these things together. If we are still heads down trying to get Rage out the door, I'm not going to task somebody with putting together the Doom 3 source distribution. But when Rage ships, you can expect the Doom 3 source code to be coming out."
Sounds like they're waiting to get Rage finalized rather than on any licensees to finish shipping Doom 3-based projects.
Yes, it's a shame more people with healthy livers aren't dying so those with unhealthy livers may live. It's not like livers for transplant at grown in a lab and we can only grow so many at once - thus we sell them to the highest bidder. Nope, someone has to die... you're right, life isn't fair.
You will be able to choose Jedi/Sith from the start in SW:TOR just like SWG. Two key differences being that in the SW:TOR, a lot of Jedi/Sith fits with the era and they're making the classes balanced against each other - there will be no uber-class.

It's funny. He admits that for years /. has been sounding off about the death of MS... then questions why they're sounding off about the death of MS.
I just searched "Why is Windows 7 so expensive?" and got the result the summary mentioned.
Although my second hit was "Why Linux will crush Windows 7". I call it a wash.

I'm all for using the IP address of my neighbors open wifi as PII for my illicit activities :D
Why SSNs were used as security devices is beyond me, though I am guessing the fact that "everyone already has one!" was a big part of it.

Yeah, what about IceWeasel?
