I think it's just the first thing that pops to mind LadyLorraine Send a noteboard - 07/06/2012 04:56:51 PM
Honestly, I wasn't even thinking of that specific case. If you prefer, I can make up a different scenario where someone sues the electrical company for not putting a label on their sockets that sticking a fork in them is a bad idea? I wasn't aware of the specifics of the original scenario, but I wasn't really thinking of that specific case regardless.

Despite my apparently poor example, you do get my point don't you? :P
Still Empress of the Poofy Purple Pillow Pile Palace!!

I feel your pain bro. ianski - 30/05/2012 03:26:04 AM 1333 Views
It's to stop "pirates." And by "pirates," I mean, "people who play used games." *NM* Aemon - 30/05/2012 04:31:22 AM 628 Views
Scary that in order to curb one practice - they are alienating a whole section ... Roonas - 05/06/2012 08:30:15 AM 1339 Views
Close... it's for control, for a variety of reasons. "piracy" and the used game market are the tip lord-of-shadow - 07/06/2012 03:21:58 AM 1287 Views
Fair enough. I guess used-game concerns are more of a console thing. *NM* Aemon - 07/06/2012 03:54:47 AM 672 Views
This is why I stopped playing Blizzard Games. MightyYT - 30/05/2012 06:13:34 AM 1272 Views

He shoulda cut himself on the ankle and worn white socks again ... Roonas - 05/06/2012 08:33:46 AM 1227 Views
why was it a poor business choice? The game sold well LadyLorraine - 05/06/2012 07:58:13 PM 1608 Views
You need to have followed the whole story a bit more to understand. Aemon - 05/06/2012 09:14:48 PM 1170 Views
mk fair enough then *NM* LadyLorraine - 06/06/2012 01:32:15 AM 924 Views

Wow - you just outlined TORT reform in it's most basic premise ... Roonas - 05/06/2012 08:00:04 AM 1236 Views

The funny thing is... Wibble - 30/05/2012 07:48:49 PM 1304 Views
The difference I see is that Steam has an offline mode that (mostly) works. D3 has none. *NM* Zalis - 30/05/2012 08:09:40 PM 652 Views
yah...I only recently got into Steam. and ONLY because I've been moving a lot LadyLorraine - 30/05/2012 09:01:31 PM 1557 Views
It's still a good thing, the problem is that we're in a period of transition. Aemon - 30/05/2012 09:26:46 PM 1329 Views
The biggest issues I see right now are bandwith caps & speed. Zalis - 30/05/2012 09:44:10 PM 1300 Views
Oh sure, I agree. We're definitely not there yet. Aemon - 31/05/2012 01:17:58 AM 1357 Views

Sorry for your troubles, but you're something of an outlier. Aemon - 31/05/2012 07:31:53 PM 1267 Views
Hmm ... that's scary ... Roonas - 05/06/2012 09:21:42 AM 1293 Views
are you unaware that some people do drive to the bus-station anyway? LadyLorraine - 31/05/2012 02:36:22 AM 1624 Views
I don't think I've ever used an analogy on the internet that people didn't complain about. Aemon - 31/05/2012 04:46:17 AM 1137 Views
lol, yah, I just couldn't help it for the sake of the continuity of internet stereotypes *NM* LadyLorraine - 31/05/2012 02:17:05 PM 800 Views

Stuff like D3's always-on DRM and phone home schemes in no way contribute to that future. lord-of-shadow - 07/06/2012 03:26:08 AM 1233 Views
