You clearly don’t use Twitch, because Automod is absolutely terrible at being fair: it blocks completely innocuous messages for reasons nobody understands. If that started banning people instead, Twitch would be swarmed with false-positives, which would only make the site worse.

Same thing that happens to people who gamble on real-estate and stocks: they eat a massive loss. Unlike real-estate and stock though, the companies being bought from regulate the price so the price can’t really outright crash, so it isn’t enough of a massive loss to offset the potential problems.

Scaplers do the same thing, using bots to buy goods faster than actual people can buy them.

That just creates a massive black market: bad as scalpers are, turning the entire market into a national company store just provides far too many opportunities for corruption.

And the damage is actually cumulative, because the longer people aren’t buying games, the more Sony loses out on the investments they could be making with that money. If the scalping goes on for a long time, people might even decide they might as well go to Xbox or PC instead, since Microsoft’s own exclusives will…

Yeah, it’s actually a REALLY bad trend: if people can use bots to be scalpers, then why not use DDOS attacks to shut other buyers out? They’re luxury goods, so it’s not like anyone *needs* them, and the stores can still sell them eventually, so no harm done, right? Or why not leave reviews claiming the items being…

Bidoof like it hurts.

Bidoof like it hurts.

Wouldn’t angelitis be, “the inflamation of the angel?” I guess it would technically be some kind of angel carciogenisis, so angelgenisis, maybe? Or angiozation, since she’s being remade into something else? Perhaps even,“Apotheotic Homeostatic Imbalance,” which is my best guess of, “Apotheosis related Homeostatic…

Yeah, the big problem is that the battle backgrounds are VERY low-res, and the character animations are too jerky to look ‘alive.’

The people in the game are dressed as generic digital age soldiers, but the game takes place along the Lebanese and Syrian borders. No one runs around with a gun while dressed in white in the real world, of course, because that’s an easy way to get killed.

Anno 2070 had a lot of similar elements.

If it was just him, he probably would own it, but other people also make money off of FNAF now, and they would probably be hurt more than him if the series lost fans for getting political. Of course, he probably doesn’t want to lose money either...

Kira is Space Jesus; Char is more like Space Moses.

DO YOU HEAR THE VOICES TOO?!?

It’s like Monster Hunter and Ghost Recon Breakpoint had a baby, except it was a joyless political marriage where nobody is happy.

Athiests in DnD don’t believe the gods are worthy of worship, as opposed to them not believing in gods at all.

You *might* make a lot of money; or the market might crash, and leave the sellers with very expensive cards they can only sell at a loss. I very much doubt the resellers can just buy the cards on credit, and then declare bankruptcy in the worst case, at least without ruining themselves financially. 

Funny thing is, I always liked Udina: he’s exactly the kind of person, for better and worse, who would get things done in a place where humans are considered nouveau riche. Best of all, you don’t know, even at the very end, whether you could ever call him a good person or not, but you can at least understand why he…
