So why do straight people get to talk about being straight, but gay people don’t get to talk about being gay?

“you are not allowed to discuss things of sexual nature in the global chat”

“But just why is it so important to state up front you’re Gay/Trans in Global chat? Just to make clear, it shouldn’t be contentious at all, and you’re a bigot if you believe it is.”

I mean, that’s almost always what “no politics” policies mean. It was stated in the original story part of the article: Mentioning that gay/trans/queer people exist is considered “politics”, whereas straight people being straight is not.

Hopefully, at the least, this causes those douchebag viewers to just go away.

Tortuous interference is when you are enabling others to break the ToS. That is entirely what the cheat manufacturer is doing. The entire purpose of their service is to break the ToS of the game. There is no other use for it whatsoever.

It wouldn’t, because it’s not being claimed that these cheaters infringed on their IP, but that they are assisting other players in violating the EULA of the game, what would be Tortious Interference. It doesn’t matter how the cheaters got into the game, what matters is that they are cheating.

This is the absolute dumbest shit ever. It’s not like any of this stuff was not possible before “En Eff Tees” or blockchain dipshittery. 

But it does, and they are interchangeable. When conservatives stop supporting Republicans so they can get their judges appointed and regulations repealed, and stop looking the other way when the Trumpian shit comes out, then you might have a case. Until then, conservative = republican.

You’re talking about the ones where they’ve only really been traded among the people that already own them? In what is likely wash trading to pump up the value? 

But, but other commentators here assured me that it was when the game was dead that the price would really go up, due to collectors!

I will join in, but I’m not as confident that it will have any affect. Most of us are equally against the slimy practices of Free to Play games, but that doesn’t matter because they can get people hooked who will spend thousands of dollars on their crap.

Keep pretending that people don’t like it because they don’t understand it, instead of not liking it because they do understand it.

You remember that Epic isn’t the one setting the price here; it’s SquareEnix, right? And that games still have tons of expenses beyond having trucks drive physical copies around?

Literally nothing about being an NFT enables that. If the company wanted you to be able to sell your in game items, they could do that.

In which case, there’s no benefit to being on a blockchain, as they can just use an internal database to do it, like how Blizzard could tell you preordered the WC3 remake, and gave you WoW in game items.

If you can’t work outside the Steam ecosystem to skip out on Valve’s cut, what makes you think they’d let NFTs skip their cut?

I think you do need to know about it in order to know how “people own their in game items” has failed miserably in the past.
