What about other types of wall decorations?

pokepal148 · « **Reply #501 on:** April 23, 2013, 09:45:59 PM »

you know what, your entire argument boiled down to "everybody else is doing it" all i'm saying is that from a consumer point of view EA is doing a victory lap on the whole 'worst company of the year' thing,

TJ Spyke · « **Reply #502 on:** April 23, 2013, 09:53:35 PM »

You were acting like EA was doing something wrong, you are literally the only person I have seen (other than those who are just against capitalism completely) who is against product licensing. And what EA was doing was not bad or in anyway anti-consumer, you got free items for buying toothpaste (which everyone should use)

There's the link I was looking for....

So? What does that have to do with anything? Buying real world products to get stuff in-games is not new. And unlike so many other examples of stuff that has no effect (like skin packs), this is good in that it actually makes a difference. You don't NEED the extra content, but it's a nice reward for those who go and buy something everyone uses already. If you are gonna buy toothpaste, why not get rewarded for it? I didn't hear you or anyone else complaining when Activision did a deal where you could only get exclusive Skylanders figures by buying Doritos products. I don't see you complaining about people being able to get Double XP multiplayer bonuses in Call of Duty and Halo from codes they get buy buying Mountain Dew, etc.

Dude, give it up. I have slapped down every argument you had, and I thought we had moved on.

I try to be the bigger man usually, and I dont go around attacking posters.

TJ, your argument boils downs to "If it makes money, it's morally, legally ok". That is literally what your moral compass is comprised of, plus misogyny and if it's not my source, it doesn't count. Also my source is Wikipedia.

TJ Spyke · « **Reply #509 on:** April 23, 2013, 10:26:49 PM »

If you are trying to imply I attacked him, I didn't. He made a claim, I showed him why he was wrong (with examples). He keeps it up, I keep showing him he is wrong. We both agree to end the discussion, then he brings it up again in another thread. So I again nicely show him why he is wrong and he gets mad that I showed him why he is wrong.

Annnnd ooohboy coming into a discussion I am in and attacking me for no reason. Shocker. If something benefits the consumer too, then it's OK. The consumer gets healthy teeth (so they and everyone they interact with benefits) and they get free content in a game they play.

lolmonade · « **Reply #510 on:** April 23, 2013, 10:33:22 PM »

Dammit TJ Spyke/Pokepal, calm your tits. Continue this stupid argument where you started it. This is meant to be the thread where we mock both of you for **** you post in that thread.

S-U-P-E-R · « **Reply #511 on:** April 23, 2013, 10:34:40 PM »

But mommmmmmmmmmmmm

oohhboy · « **Reply #512 on:** April 23, 2013, 10:49:49 PM »

I wasn't talking about toothpaste. I am taking about your stance on any and every corporate wrong doing. You made the mistake of thinking I hate EA because they are EA, wrong, I hate EA because they are a shitty company that needs to go away or change, same with Zynga, same thing with the jackasses that made Dungeon Defender, Trendy entertainment.

In the third party thread, now the "how not to post thread", I provided time and again infallible evidence of EA's shittery and destruction of what was once a beloved franchise. First you brush it off as "Not credible or reliable, nor respectable". Start goal post moving. Next it's "Makes money so there". Then moves on to "Everyone is doing it". After that irrefutable evidence come in, you disappear into your smite hole.

Again, I ask what is your definition of what is "Respectable". Is NWR "Respectable"? IGN? Gamespot? CNN? FOX? BBC? Homeless dude down on 5th? Your Mom?.

TJ Spyke · « **Reply #513 on:** April 23, 2013, 10:52:50 PM »

Your "infallible" evidence was your opinion, not facts. And why are we arguing this AGAIN, now in a different thread? We already concluded this.

Why do people who lose arguments keep bringing it up someplace new?

oohhboy · « **Reply #515 on:** April 23, 2013, 11:03:10 PM »

So all those articles I sourced were "Opinions". So when a programmer shows the world a piece of code that anyone can modify and has been replicatable uncountable number of times, verified, backed up by multiple sites, is in your terms "Opinion".

I have to ask, what is your definition of "evidence".

I have no idea how to do a poll, somebody help me so we can end this once and for all...

or I guess "in my opinion I have no clue how to do a poll" in Tj-lyan

S-U-P-E-R · « **Reply #517 on:** April 23, 2013, 11:14:40 PM »

Mmmyes please tell us more about your sound debate tactics TJ

pokepal148 · « **Reply #518 on:** April 23, 2013, 11:34:55 PM »

you know part of me thinks Tj's forum signiture should have been changed to a certain 4 letter word that shall not be repeated as the ultimate form of forum karma(and irony)

UncleBob · « **Reply #519 on:** April 24, 2013, 12:22:12 AM »

Thread time out. Great job, guys.

NWR_insanolord · « **Reply #520 on:** April 24, 2013, 06:02:46 AM »

You bastards are wrecking the best thread I created here. Stop it!

NWR_insanolord · « **Reply #521 on:** April 27, 2013, 03:20:13 AM »

Pokepal made a point about the karma system and how it doesn't fix bad posting habits because you don't know why someone smited you, so I thought I'd point out that I smite TJ Spyke every time he starts a post with "Um" because it comes off as really obnoxious.

god help me if Pokepal convinces you to ditch karma when I couldn't

NWR_insanolord · « **Reply #523 on:** April 27, 2013, 03:24:43 AM »

The more people complain about karma, the more dead set I become against getting rid of it.

S-U-P-E-R · « **Reply #524 on:** April 27, 2013, 03:29:47 AM »

Not getting rid of a bad feature because it makes people mad? ~*cool*~
