Don't let anyone tell you what's social and anti-social. Social doesn't inheritantly mean good and being alone or lanning doesn't mean anti-social. I could easily go off on a tangent here so I gotta restrain myself. The majority of people that call gaming anti-social have absolutely NO history or experience with it. To them you playing CS with 10 other 25+ year olds is no different than a 5 year old playing Nintendo. Fuck em. These are the type of people that will tell you working 60 hours a week at a job you hate then bar-hopping all weekend is "socially acceptable". This is no different than jocks in high school trying to tell you how you should act. Fuck em, they have no idea what the fuck they're talking about. Be a gamer if that's what you're into. You don't owe ANYONE an explanation.
Well you have to realize that the 26 years number is the absolute satanic-judge maximum sentence possible that no one would ever get. It's like a furniture dealer actually spending 6 months in prison for removing a tag, it's just not gonna happen.
As for this "camcorders in theatres" bullshit, it's exactly that, bullshit. I've pulled maybe half a dozen screeners in the last years and none of them were worth watching. In fact, some of them interested me enough to desire to see them in good quality, and I bought a ticket even though I hadn't planned on it. I do, however, believe the day is coming when we'll start seeing perfect quality digital rips of whatever digital media(most likely DVD, obviously) they use to show movies at theatres. Then, coupled with faster broadband speeds(I'm 3mb down currently) I believe that when the MPAA complaigns of finance loss through this type of piracy, they'll actually be speaking some truth.
Will EVER beat the Window Messaging Service pop-up I got selling a program that blocks Windows Messaging Service. They never responded to my emails as to whether or not they offered "change your windows background" or "how to change your boot-up wav" software.
Why bother? You seem to have ample amounts of wit and charm, just go with that. Not that I'm sure you'd know the first thing to do with "some", so I fear you will each have to fake it in your own ways. Also, learn to tell the difference between a girl scout meeting and a ladies bar, the judge probably wont be so forgiving next time.
I'm just trying to rationalize how he was a guide for 2 years yet can't remember major geographical features concerning the game, or if he honestly believes that any death/xp loss caused by this incident wouldn't be reimbursed by the GM's.
WTF does Luclin have to do with shit? VP is a Kunark zone, ToV is a Velious zone. Veeshan has never been in any expansion or timeline. A little bit of reading and you could've pulled your story off, better luck next time.
Veeshan has never existed in the game. Their is no graphic for her. I hate to go off on a dork tangent but Veeshan is the god of dragons, the lore for her places her home in the plane of sky, not VP. You just completely fabricated a story based on a limited knowledge of the game. Never let truth get in the way of a good story, eh?
Can you give me a movie, book, television show, play, short story, etc. that just does NOT fit right into one of the 5? I believe in the 5 stories rule because I can't find fault in it.
Did that sound intelligent when you typed it out? I mean where in the HELL does he get off charging money for his service? The nerve of some people. I keep reading over your sentence and I'm really at a loss for words. I fear you've done the typical slashdot reply and gone for style over substance. You didn't buy his cd. You bought the right to listen to the songs on a certain album anytime you wish. Everyone that wants to listen has to do the same.
I remember years ago being SUCH an advocate for a redesigned business model for the recording industry along with a new marketing and price scheme and this specific board killed it. It's full of such weak arguments acting as a thin mask over the fact that the majority of you would NEVER buy music again if you didn't have to. It's not about right vs. wrong it's about cheap vs. spendy. Honestly, if I was leading some type of anti-RIAA(or anti-MPAA) association, the criminalistic trolls of this haven of pseudo-intellectual board would be the LAST people I wanted on my side. It's been said before and it still rings true: with friends like these....
I think I'll go with something I read back in the day. Maynard, when asked about p2p networks and such, replied "My music is not yours to give".
I like that.

You need to get out of the mindset that a good has to have a physical form. You can steal cable, internet access, cell phone time, etc. Their good is music. You're stealing music. You're stealing their good.

That logic is so flawed it makes my eyes bleed. That's like me stealing cars off the lot and going "well I can get it for free this way so you should have to have it delivered to my house full of fine-ass women and cases of Heineken and them MAYBE I'll give you money for it". This isn't bread or baby formula. You aren't gonna die without the latest Eminem CD. This all goes back to my original arguement. The lot of you wouldn't know what a busines model was if it bit you on the ass. Download what you want, who gives a fuck..but PLEASE quit thinking you're freedom fighters. Their are people out there that know what a real dictator is like, for their sake shut the fuck up about the injustices of the RIAA.
Go to the Boycott-the-RIAA website? Sounds like a lot of work and reading and such. Can't I just pull a few gigs of mp3's and that'll count as my part to fight them?

Every story EVER is based on 1 of 5 basic stories(the 5 man vs. something stories). Maybe games have/need a similar rule developed?
I've pulled funnier stuff out of my ass (no, really!).
Sadly, your reply was not one of them.

They go into the teacher's lounge, get blizted, and talk about who's husband followed what furry little thing down a rabbit's hole.
