A humble opinion

This post has become yet another example of something that has annoyed me since I discovered this site. While I can't say I share Noctunre's political\social assessment of America (I don't think there's any chance of it "disappear"ing), I do empathize with the confontational tone he used in his posts.
While this site is extremely informative and useful, the most frequent (albeit usually the most helpful) posters here usually come off as condescending at best and insulting at worst. Dabhand just scored a real zinger by mocking some Portugese guy's English. Whoah, almost cut myself on that wit of yours. And why bother with the holier-than-thou reminders of the Holy Forum Rules? Nocturne OBVIOUSLY doesn't possess the game legally and neither does the vast majority of people who use Fileforums and the various copyworlds. If you folks that like to come down on illegal filesharers really had any convictions regarding this victimless crime you wouldn't share your hacking/programming info with anyone who comes up with a lame "my dog ate it" story. I don't see any real legal reason for this attitude either. The owners, moderators and the lawyers for the corporations who produce the files all know that this site is mostly used by pirates. You would have to be very naive to think that banning anybody is going to save them when they finally go to court. But whatever your reasoning for it, why not just ban them and delete the post? It might cut down on the animosity and frequency of these pointless strings of posts, like the one I just contributed to

Talking The End

well to finish it, i would like to say to the guy that made an opinion about my english... well m8 i speak english since i was 6 years old, while i don't see you speaking Portuguese do i ?! or spanish do i? or french do i ? or german do i ? do you really know how to speak your native lingo ? hummmm, if you had a pin of neuron activity you would see that i might change the order of the letters 'cause of fast writing... and yes... i HATE the US, not the people, but the governament!! though the people do vote, and when you have so much CULTURE in your hands.. it's difficult to accept how you re run a President who's only interest is in Oil and Guns... but.. im just a portuguese in a tiny little country who in 500 hundread years discovered HALF A PLANET !!! HALF A PLANET M8!! and you guys destroyed HALF A PLANET!! nice going... and finally quot'in that last post, do belive me that i no longer have the cd, and i mailed Sigames of what happened and waiting for a response. And if i was indeed a warez user, tell me, do you agree with the prices of the games? if so... do you think the time spent playing some, or patching this and that or removing adding drivers, do it pays the bill ???
only the programmers so see the cash !! and if all were like Valve !! the games would decrese on prices
'Cause BIG BOYS like EA, EIDOS or other Eatmoneyfrom programmers wouldn't be soooo greedy, and if the houses that prog, could release the games without the logos of the Big ONES!! maybe just maybe Piracy would decrease!!

LONG LIVE COMMODORE!! LONG LIVE the OLdSchOoL!!!

Burn iT to The Ground... and if a ban is what i will get.. Ohh How happy i am today :]

And .. no comments on portuguese.. but it would do you guys no harm to learn one or two other languages beside English.

So Live well !

And keep on drilling oil in others countries and killing inocent people by the way!

I agree with you about the pointlessness of telling someone's English knowledge off; that game publishers rip you and the developers off; that Commodore rulez forever; that learning languages is fun and useful; that the USA is digging its own grave (or perhaps that of the whole world?). However, this doesn't change the fact that you're trying to discuss warez on this forum, which is the worst you can do against the forum rules! (Yes, you need to be banned and this thread closed as soon as possible.)

@WarezRule!: You're the Nth person who hasn't been around enough to understand what this forum is (and isn't) about. Banning warez-user idiots is exactly THE way to save this forum from getting closed down! Also, if you don't like the rules/attitude/feeling of this forum, well, you don't need to stay; see if other forums are better...

Dude as I said, if you didnt act the way you did you would have gotten help.


How would you like me to walk into your house, say its filthy and crap, then ask for a cup of coffee. Would you give me the coffee?

On this forum, the definition of "warez" is "not having the original CD/DVD". The reason doesn't matter, that's what forum rule #3 is about. Sorry, you may have fallen into this category unfairly; still, these are the forum rules...

Pirates = People who sell warez for money..

Nobody ever seems to get that right.
