The owner of Gawker asked their sports writers to write about sports; chaos ensued.

Would a ‘Razzle-Dazzle should be played for entertainment only and not investment purposes’ disclosure requirement satisfy you? I’m just not sure what the difference between this game and any legal gambling is, and hell yeah I’ll die on that hill because I believe what I’m saying and I enjoy arguing.

I do like people, that’s why I respect their agency and firmly believe that we should learn to assess things critically rather than being told what we can and can’t do when it comes to entertainment. This is legitimate entertainment, not a scam, so ‘protecting’ people from it just assumes everyone’s too fucking stupid…

The employer owes you wages as they are earned, so no, this is not a ‘loan.’ it’s a real issue that I’ve heard griped about since my first job, and likely will be addressed one way or another in the near future. In fact, it sounds like the typical capitalist approach is being applied here; solve a social issue while…

Then the answer is don’t do it. I see no issue with a full grown adult playing this game given the lesson you should learn; if someone is asking you for money and you’re not sure if giving it to them is a good idea or not, don’t give them your fucking money! If there are adults out there who don’t know it yet then…

Yeah they do. If you give someone your money after they've confused you, you're an idiot. A scam involves false representation and obfuscation of the means to identify the falsehood; this kind of satisfies the former given incorrectly rewarding points, but definitely not the latter. If you lose money to something like…

It’s really straightforward to do the simple math and realize your point scorers are statistical outliers, Like, really really easy. If you’re willing to shell over your money without performing such a critical rudimentary task, you deserve whatever you get. I don’t call that scamming, it’s all right there.

I guess lying to you about your points is kind of a scam tactic to get some bias going, but how is rolling dice with the odds clearly laid out in front of you a scam? It’s just craps on rails.

lmao That you haven’t finished the game and needed to write something “of substance" is painfully obvious dude. Talk about empty posturing.

The new WoW is a different game, and that’s become all the more clear having played Classic for an extended period of time again. New WoW has very little to do with what made original WoW so fun; the grind is well balanced as far as time-to-reward ratio goes, the mechanics are simple and rough around the edges, and…

Dude, *fuck off.*

So it’s some great epiphany to you that living a principled life involves denying impulses in lieu of upholding said principles? Or is it that games are products sold by corporations?

How the fuck did you convince anyone to pay you to be a writer?

Fucking tedious.

Yeah, thank god we have places like Gawker to ensure that nothing in this world (and I mean nothing, cause all is politics right?) can be without political affiliation, comment, or meaning. Thank god for you. WHAT DO VIDEO GAME MAN THINK ABOUT TUMP?!

No, it’s not. It’s just reposting shit that people are doing on Twitter and Reddit, there’s a distinct difference. There’s 0 substance here.

An article as dull and bloated as the streamer culture it won't shut up about. Art, truly.

Apparently the concept of paying for specific services has somehow eluded you. Mercifully it’s pretty straightforward though, can you catch up pretty quick before you write another dumbass article like this.

The only thing more insufferable than watching Jared Leto desperately trying to act is watching Tim Rogers trying to be funny. Or relevant. Or whatever this grating hipster bullshit is ever actually trying to do for anyone. Who the fuck knows.

Holy shit, this isn’t isolated. Looking at your article history, you’re an honest-to-god career fearmonger. This is all you goddamned do!
