I will ride out this tangent concerning who pays what for which service but, hopefully, it will come back to the idea of how ones actions speak volumes for their cause - whether the cause is just or otherwise, it principals can be immediately undermined by resorting to your opponents most questionable tactics.

I'm not putting any individual on the same "scale" as another. Its their standards I'm speaking of... if you think that ethics and standards should be a factor of the current circumstances, I'm sure your local clansmen have a cowl in your size.

Suffice it to say, if I had to pay, even a coupla bucks to post at Flames I wouldn't be here.

I think this is an invite to start charging you for the honor of posting here?
Does anything that has happened here regarding this topic involved you in any way? Apparently your standards are to keep beating a dead horse rather than just walk away from a place apparently you don't believe in. So how are you any better than anyone else...

You're new to this whole logic thing, eh?

Speaking of things that smack of empty rhetoric...

Like I just posted in NGD on the official boards, Sony choosing to not respond quickly -even a "Hey guys, we're checking it out"- does little to lessen the appearance of guilt.

The burden of proof is on them here. LFG has admitted the method of acquisition was questionable, so his cards are on the table. SOE is the guy at the table giving people the shit-eye.

In the words of Jesse Jackson (repeat after me):

"I am somebody!"

"We are somebody!"

Thank you for your thoughts.

You are somebody LFG, Thank you for everything you have given this game and it's community which I know you love .. even if it was bitter pills of honesty we all had to swallow.
You're not allowed to leave until the servers are shut down for good. Sorry .. but we need this site .. and we need you.

Saying anything now, while the topic is as "volatile" as it is would probably be a bad idea on the part of Sony.
It's another major black eye against Sony, but at this point, they don't really stand to lose much if they just let this settle down a bit before responding.

Although, it wouldn't surprise me if they never responded to it at all

I answered you honestly when I sent you that PM, and then immediately posted the same exact thing publicly.

Let me now give you the complete story on this.

Last night, I changed Rule 6 back to what it was originally, when I started this site. I had changed the rule to what it was when you called me on it earlier in the week when I started our now defunct Vanguard site. As I recall, the reason I changed it back then had something to do with a Vanguard Community Relations rule.

So the Rule as it was on our site last week was no longer applicable to the reason I changed it, and all I did was change it back last nite to how it originally read.

You are reading far too much into this situation.

This is awesome. I commend LFG for hammerfucking SOE, no matter the method used. They are cock suckers and deserve no quarter.
