"First, I’m an adult and I pay my own bills, so fuck you on that front. (27, if you must know, the language is because I get highly offended when other people tell me I’m not allowed to be annoyed by things.)"
Bravo. Did you want a gold star sticker? This changes nothing.
"Second, let’s try another example. Telemarketers. I mean, hey, they’re just putting food on the table, right? So it’s perfectly okay for them to call you whenever you want and try to get you to buy roofing tiles or magazine subscriptions or whatever garbage they’re trying to peddle. I mean, nobody could possibly mind that, right? For a good cause and all. I mean, if people didn’t like being harassed during their leisure time, then they might create some…oh, I don’t know, a registry of some kind where people could sign up so they wouldn’t be called. But hey, what are the odds of some kind of “Do Not Call Registry” being created? Pretty low, I’d say! What kind of petty asshole would ask to not have their downtime constantly interrupted!
Oh wait, what have we here? Seems there’s a lot more people who don’t like being bugged than I thought!
Now just imagine paying for the priviledge of having your leisure time pissed on."
Except with RMT players, you're decidedly on something you're doing for entertainment. Fuck your entertainment, if you don't care about others, nobody should give a shit about you. With telemarketers, however, you might actually be doing something important while they call. So sorry, try again.
As an aside, you can hate them all you want. If you'll read carefully, I never said you couldn't, just that you're a faggot for doing so. My sympathy lies more with them than with you.
"If you don’t play the game then none of this argument applies to you and maybe you should just drop the issue."
I play FFXI and and WoW.
"Are you an alt character of Jack Thomspon?! What a stupid thing to say!"

Posted 07/23/08 at 03:32pm Alteffor: You should add a section to the site for anything Jack CC's to you. It's always entertaining to read the stuff he writes.
