Huh. I really learned something, thanks for that :) I'm still not sure if I fully agree on your views on the very nature of the emulator (I feel it's too deterministic to think of it in such a way), but I do understand now why you said it and I also understand the context (namely, the components necessary for…

Okay, no hard feelings. I'll admit that I'm a bit confused by the depth of your anger though, but that's free for you to feel. At any rate, have a nice weekend.

Crap, you're ahead of me. Yeah, I found that quite an obvious similarity, so obvious that I didn't understand why it's not in the article =/

Oh believe me, I'm not trying to defend the use of emulators or anything, don't get me wrong. I do find it uncomfortable to call something which isn't literally defined as right/wrong and exists in a grey zone 'wrong' by default. If it says black on white that something isn't right, then it's not - plain and simple, I…

But my post wasn't passive-aggressive in the least, definitely not intended to be so, and you're doing it quite a disservice by disregarding it in such a casual manner. If it did come across passive-aggressively or otherwise negatively I'm sorry for the confusion it caused, if you wish you can quote parts of the post…

I can respect that, if I agree with it or not is not really relevant in this matter. Thank you for your explanations :)

Sidenote: the emulation programs are not only not 'very illegal', but also not illegal at all. Wonderin' where you got the 'very' from, it's not something used in legal speak. Anyway, the emulation programs themselves aren't inherently wrong, it's what can be inserted into and done with them. The possibility of these…

What he means by it is that if you really call this the most mean-spirited comment you have ever seen on this site, you really are either quite soft (which is okay, not judging) or really haven't read the comment-section on this site since, well, forever (also okay). I've had stuff slung to my head on here that would…

Honest reply, appreciated. I still think that you're going on the defensive a bit too much, it's much easier to just say 'well, okay, sorry' and leave it at that. I do agree that the backlash is quite strong and simply reeks of hypocrisy (regardless of the material that ignited the backlash), but... I dunno, you can…

And you're just out to nail her on everything she says apparently, anytime and anywhere, like a common bully. Doesn't exactly make your previous accusations and arguments stronger, on the contrary. If you could leave your discussion with her in your own thread of comments, I would very much appreciate it. Bye.

EDIT: I…

But ah, I'm interested in this: why haven't you mentioned that you haven't made the pic? You just repost, yet you defend it as if you claim ownership. I'm confused by this, you could more easily shove it off as 'only reposting, sorry'. For the record, I don't have an opinion in this debate that I'd like to voice…

I have to give Capcom credit on how they spinned the whole DLC thing. "You're not paying for DLC, you're paying tithes for absolution." Good angle, I'll give 'm that.

Pah, Shinto Fu is where it's at.

Mormon Kombat would be pretty damn cool if you ask me. "Joseph Smith wins! Bibleity!"

Actually not that bad of an idea if you see it this way: Gandalf is tempted by the One Ring and easily overthrows the Witch King with the intent to repair what he has wrought. But corruption runs deep and he dons the crown, after which destroying Saruman (possibly uncorrupted if we look at the timeline in this case)…

More so than the Creator's agent, he's almost a part of the Creator himself, I seem to remember that that's what the Maiar are (or whatever the name of the supreme deity and creatures in Tolkien's universe are, my memory fails me sometimes). Basically a shard or split-off part of the Creator's being, in himself…

Haha, that's quite a story :D Got more like that?

In my memory they sound akin to turkeys. Even as a kid I found them more hilarious than scary :D

My point exactly, you wouldn't exactly tell them to "fuck off!" when they show up like this. Or maybe you would, but more mumbly and without the exclamation mark because you're too busy soiling both the front and back of your pantaloons.

Intimidation is one of the prime weapons in war. If you can intimidate an enemy force to such an extent that they withdraw, a battle (or entire war?) can be won with minimal casualties. So yeah, these masks could do more than just protect, they might even prevent the need for protection I think :)
