They aren’t investors in anything. That’s like me going to visit my shit on lawaway at Wal-Mart to inspect my investment.

anyone who kickstarts something and thinks they’re now a stake or shareholder and not a donating patron is confused.

“ MGSV is complete”

What is your point? If you really wanted to avoid spoilers you WOULDN’T BE VISITING A GAMING SITE AROUND / AFTER THE RELEASE OF A SURE TO BE POPULAR GAME THAT WILL BE HEAVILY REPORTED ON.

Or you could just, you know, avoid MGS articles on a gaming website. People like you are honestly just fucking stupid.

Newsflash: STOP LOOKING AT ARTICLES IF YOU HAVEN’T FINISHED THE GAME. This isn’t some new wisdom to be bestowed upon you, either, this applies to EVERYTHING. New episode of a show comes out? Don’t fucking click on an article ABOUT THE SHOW, 9 times out of 10, it’s gonna be about that new episode. New game comes out,…

Dude, it’s literally in the development menu from the start of the game.

Since the crimes were committed when he was a minor, the parents could be found liable in Civil Court. Obviously, in Criminal Court only he is responsible (hence why he’s been charged and convicted while his parents have not). But a Civil suit could place the blame on a lack of paenting/oversight by the parents which…

Not sure about other countries but here in the states you are legally responsible for what your children do until the age of 18. So if my kid decides to be a shit head and trashes a few cars at the local dealer then I am on the hook to pay for it.

You’ve got to be kidding. This asshat interrupted air travel for shits and giggles just to piss off John Smedley. He’s 17, if his parents can’t monitor him and be liable for the damages he caused, then who the hell is?

No, it's not. The law holds parents responsible for their kids' actions because any reasonable person understands that a parent is responsible for their kids' actions. If your kid is calling in bomb threats and causing major network outages for companies and costing them millions of dollars, then yes, you have a moral…

Legally they are responsible for the actions of children under their custody. This is not a difficult concept either from a legal or a moral standpoint.

OH YOU CAN’T GO AFTER HIM! HE’S JUST A KID! HE’S NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR HIS ACTIONS!

The “kid” was still living with his parents and did all this under their watch. If he can’t be held responsible, they sure as hell should be.

Well if the courts aren’t going to act on the kid, Smedley has little else to go after except the parents and as a parent, I think that we should be held accountable for what our children are doing anyway, ultimately. This kids comments afterwards on Twitter bragging about how he got away with it, how LS knows they…

Well, his parents seemed to let 4chan raise their child instead of themselves, and this is the logical end result.

Right on man. Despite not owning a business or anything myself, I can still see things from your perspective. Definitely a smart move subcontracting everything because, as you said, unemployment is ridiculously high and there's always someone willing to work. Even people who are "against Capitalism" should be in…
