[quote who="kryo" reply="124" id="2568479"] Nobody is telling anyone that they can, can't, must, or must not post from a particular end of the spectrum over there.[/quote] Locking threads hints rather strongly at "must not". Sorry Stardock, but your behaviour and attitude (despite any claims you may make to the contrary) largely marks you as right wing minions. No problem, your forum, your domestic authority.

[quote who="Thundercles" reply="20" id="2565946"] If Demigod was a victim in an auto collision, then my assessment would be the patient is just about to start heading into decompensated shock... but don't worry, Dr. Frogboy is vaguely talking about some complicated procedure that might help out some day in the future. Considering the patient's medical insurance Ass Powered Claims wouldn't spring for a few bandages and dressings a few months back to stop the bleeding in the first pl

[quote who="coolgaming" reply="120" id="2568372"]Jon Stewart is anything but far left. It's an interesting phenomenon that occurred in the USA, probably since 911 and since Bush took power. People shifted rather quickly to the far right. Pat Buchanan was considered far. Now, he's barely an extremist, he's a "fairly centered" one now. [/quote] By that measure I wonder if Frogboy is on the far right or "fairly centered".

The Intro: The Daily Show With Jon Stewart Mon

The way I see it, GPG didn't know shit about the expectations of the MOBA players and treated Demigod as they treated every other game of theirs. DotA players were used to a large roster of characters and frequent balance changes and new additions to the roster - things that were noticably absent from Demigod. While the lack of a large roster and the slow addition of new DGs is understandable from a financial point of view, the slow to non-existent reaction to requests of balance chan

[quote who="ZehDon" reply="44" id="2566081"] Having said that, the moderators here are pretty damn nice ...[/quote] With the glaring exception of Island Dog, who has a more disgusting personality than even some of the neo-nazis in my (remote) neighbourhood.

hey, cut them some slack. give them some time to analyze how they managed to fuck up a perfectly good game and how to make the game attractive to a larger crowd than this miserable audience. i read in the stardock report that 70% (or so) of all buyers never even attempted to play online - which might hint at the possibility that it was a) perceived as a single player game and b) didn't have enough single player content. admirably efficient: they appealed to the wrong crowd and m

[quote who="kryo" reply="110" id="2565846"] It's been my impression that I have been allowed to keep these two threads running in this forum mainly because I've been able to keep the flaming to a minimum. More or less. Since you've kept it pretty up-front (last I checked in on your thread) that you mainly just want to discuss with those of like mind, and nobody has complained about it, it's stayed under the radar. Aroddo on the other hand (despite any claims he may make

Well, it's Stardocks forum. And if they wish it to be an Island-Dog-approved fascismland then it's their right.

[quote who="Moosetek13" reply="7" id="2560310"]What a stupid subject for a dedicated thread. The poor girl is doing her job, and it is no sweat off anyone's brow to show ID. The wallet is already out, after all.[/quote] But he might have been the brother of Benjamin Button!!

http://www.conservapedia.com/Conservative_Bible_Project As you all know, the bible is full of liberal bleeding heart stories but until now no one bothered to correct the obvious mistakes in the scripture. Far be it from god fearing conservatives to doubt the written down words of god - no, the error lies not within god but in the translation of the scripture. I'm not sure if even a conservative bible will satisfy Glenn Beck, though, since it will likely still include J

Ignore Island Dog. He's just an arse who revels in the suffering of those that are unworthy in his eyes.

This is so sad. I can't imagine how hard it must be to tell your e.g. 12 year old girl that she will have to die because you don't have enough money...

Well, ATI let's you do this:

[quote who="Pfizzyhead" reply="34" id="2561703"]I think we are getting way off topic. But you really need to think about some of the things you're saying. If corporations were not afforded any rights that human beings have, particularly the protection of the bill of rights, then our democracy would fail per se. Capitalism relies on the functions of a market sustained by the market itself. Business minded people will not invest if there is not a protection from personal liability. Thus the cor

A corporation is not a human being and thus is not entitled to any rights human beings have. Corporations can have all the rights the law is prepared to grant them, but just argueing that since persons have free speech and corporations are legal persons and thus also have free speech is complete nonsense. And just imagine how high campaign contributions for McCain would have been if the health industry was allowed to spend money as they wished back then. Plus

Freedom of speech is worthless if no one listens. Supreme court blocks ban on corporate spending: http://www.nytimes.com/2010/01/22/us/politics/22scotus.html US elections as a sham - they are primarily decided by money and the propaganda the candidates can buy with it. And prior to the supreme court decision, that system at least loosely resemble something like a democratic process, because small contributions by many people mattered. Bu

It's like an awesome movie barely anyone bothers to watch - and those that did awarded it a Razzie.

9. Meta-gaming rewards A successful career should reflect not just in winning-stats but in playing benefits, too. Currently, we only have favor points, which is a start. Far more interesting would be a skill-tree for the player, similar to the skill-trees for demigods, which would provide permanent effects in all games. That's one idea incoorporated very successfully by LoL btw., which adds to motivation. E.g. in addition to favor points,

[quote who="lifekatana" reply="1" id="2555580"]HAHAHAH GPG Gave us TWO Demigods FOR FREE. That is $200.000. Yeah... League of Legends COPIED DOTA then cashed in. [/quote] I thought Stardock paid GPG for those two demigods. And since the lead developers of DoTA now created LoL you can't accuse them of copying. However, lifekatana accidently revealed why DG won't stand a chance to LoL, a fact that GPG probably realized: A Demigod co
