[The study is unlikely to be the last word on the issue.]

Btw Skyfire, you may want to take a look at these:

The study is unlikely to be the last word on the issue. Previous studies have been released showing that file sharing had both positive and negative effects on music sales.


There's your answer Mr McPee.

Rubicant, just grow up please. If you want c&c it's a bad idea to insult the people that are trying to help you.

I love these completions. I'll probably attempt in it.

["wrongly"]

First off ... I never said it was okay to "steal".  I said I don't agree with the unncessarily high costs of CDs and am not going to buy them because of that.

So you admit that you  "wrongly" steal music because you don't like to pay for them. Just trying to clarify.

Second ... I've been downloading mp3 for 10 years and the costs of CDs has stayed pretty much the same since then (if anything the cost has come down a bit).

Not sure where you got your "facts" but your argument seems a tad ... band-wagon-ish

The link may be dated but it's still common sense.

But if you produce your own album and are releasing if yourself I'll pay you 15 USD for it!  At least you're getting all the money rather than the record company taking 14.999 and giving you a 10th of a cent for your cut.  As I said, I'm not cheap but I'm not going to line the pockets of the record labels who's pockets are lined too much as it is.  You can show me all the stats about producing a CD as you want (marketing, blah blah blah) I don't accept that all that ads up to 12-15 USD per CD.  If it really does ... then they need to find a way to lower their costs, to lower the cost for us.

So even if the musician actually does make money, you say it's okay to steal it because it costs to much? Thats ridiculous. Every time you download music illegally the price goes up to make up for the music you stole. It may not be that much but it does add up.

Skyfire, I'll choose to ignore that comment. You need only read this thread to understand I'm well past the event that caused me to think about these things.

Mmmm, mmmm. Every day I love waking up to a nice steaming cup of bullshit. Today it will be extra bitter so I better add another 3 packets of sugar. Good thing its tan colored because I'm fresh out of cream.

*gulp*

Let me ask you an important question, if you were really over Thomas's disagreement with you, what would be the point in making a new thread about it? Well apparently because it upsets you and you're not over it. The topic title says it all my friend. You're clearly calling his opinion unintelligent but have to put a topic about it because either (A). you're too afraid to talk to him about it or (B). he put you on ignore because he doesn't want to talk to you. That's it. There's no philosophy behind it. He just doesn't want to agree with you and you need to accept it.

Not really talking about internet arguments anymore, not sure I ever was, not in this thread...

Just don't cry if someone doesn't agree with you. It makes you the weaker person if you post a new thread asking everyone if they think you're right or wrong.

This is what i did so far  This is just Beta Background  tell me what you think and what COULD be better in it

If you post this in the Critic's Lounge you're far more likely to get the constructive criticism you need.

Nah, people would just dump their dodgy waste in other people's bins.

I can see the headlines now, "Man gets 10 years for shitting in resident's trash can."

I have had star trek dreams, as well as a few simpsons dreams, does it mean anything

It means that one of your your kids will inherit your dreams of becoming a star trek deep space 15 fan while hating on simpson fans.

Isn't the point of AGS so that you come up with your own game instead of asking everyone for help? If you really need help there's a recruiting thread. Threads like these show how lazy you are.

Whenever I have dreams it's usually about killing. Last night, I had a dream that my brother started shooting at me with a smg so I ran into the woods. I tried to shoot him with a revolver but I missed six times and all of my revolver bullets turned into AK rounds. Thinking quick I flanked him, grabbed his gun, and shot him in the chest. After going through all that uncalled for shit I felt bad for killing him  .

quick edit

Random name generator.

And I believe you actually said:

If my cousin didn't work there I would have never found out about the game in the first place.

So in light of your new post, you either say you don't know what WoW is, or you are calling yourself a liar.

Not everyone that works at blizzard is a GM. If they were there would be way too many of them. 

And YES, it was a fucking joke...

I'll be damned if anyone here actually admits that they thought it was funny.

Thats a ridiculous threat to come with skyfire And why do you come with these "threats"? Just because she is a nigger-lover?

You better edit your post really quick or else everyone will think you're a racist.

If my cousin didn't work there I would have never found out about the game in the first place. Besides, unless you're really dumb enough to give out your forum name you won't have any problem.

So you're saying you're going to attempt to get your cousin, who apparently 'works at Blizzard', to risk his job to ban someone from World of Warcraft?

You may claim your cousin works at Blizzard, but I can very truthfully say that I work in the games industry and I can tell you now, SkyFire, that's not how things work. Even if your supposed cousin really DID work at Blizzard, and even if he also happened to be a GM, I could have him fired for banning my account. But of course, since your cousin doesn't really work at Blizzard, this will never happen. Besides which, I actually do know people working at Blizzard, as I work within the games industry.

So stop making silly threats, okay? I know better than you, so you're not going to 'scare' me as you obviously intend to.

You obviously don't play enough WoW. When you report to a GM, the GM can only suspend (SUSPEND, NOT BAN YOU DIMWIT) someone if the person is harassing other users (like asking stupid questions all the time) and in most cases they give you a warning. Also, I never said my cousin was a GM, dumbass. Even if he did, I woudln't need him to get someone like you suspended if you act the same way on WoW as you do here.

I'm glad if I ever see anyone like yufster in WoW they will get suspended every day. 

...Why? And... what? Are you going to claim you work at Blizzard now or something?

If my cousin didn't work there I would have never found out about the game in the first place. Besides, unless you're really dumb enough to give out your forum name you won't have any problem.

I'm glad if I ever see anyone like yufster in WoW they will get suspended every day. 

HEY! I WANT SOMEBODY TO SEND ME OFFENSEVE IMs, PREFERRABLY W/ A SUBJECT LINE AND CORRESPONDING SUBJECT MATTER OF HOTT TEEN RACISTS PUNCHING EACHOHTERS PENISES!1!!1!!1!!!!11!!!!!11!

to quote one of those funny in jokes no one but 12 17 teen year olds who went to summer camp will get, "I don't get it" [laughter]
Is the above meant to be ironic, or is he (or she, but i'm thinking he) really a phreakin' nut job?

I think he/she posted it for comic relief on this edgy topic.
