Re: WTF is wrong with YOU!?
Posted By: UsulDate: 9/11/06 6:43 p.m.

In Response To: WTF is wrong with YOU!? (AfroRyan)

: Are you saying Halo Zero (or Halo Blood Covenant, if you prefer) ISN'T a
: clear example of something that infringes on the copyright and that it
: ISN'T a stand-alone game? Are you also saying it hasn't been advertised in
: high profile magazines? I'm just confused as to why it's the exception. If
: it's because "it doesn't really hurt matters since it doesn't sell
: competitor's products," that's BS. There's all sorts of
: advertisements potentially generating revenue for Microsoft
: competitors...actually, just one advertisement for Cutenews...but still...

My comment was mostly based on the first 3/4 of your response to Shishka. Stuff like "Yeah, yeah, sure, sure" can come across as rather dickish, believe it or not, especially when someone has taken the time to write out a rather thoughtful, detailed, and accurate answer to your question.

If it was meant to come across as wry or cute, well, it's text, and the mood in this thread is rather...grim and angry in places. I think my interpretation of your remarks as snide is fairly justified.

Though I suppose commenting on it wasn't. Especially seeing as Shishka of all people doesn't need my help fending off the likes of Interweb angries.
