I hate you all for playing while I stare at the clock on my desk watching the seconds tick by before I can leave.

I doubt I could pull that off without violently spraying water everywhere.

Downloaded and installed. Will now stare at the sun to pass the time until I get home from work tomorrow.

I didnt know we would be chatting but I have Ventrilo and a headset/mic if necessary. I wont be able to play until end of work tomorrow. *shakes fist at all of you*

You wont need a CD key since youre downloading it off your Battle.net account. EDIT: Eh, just realized I probably have the cart before the horse. If you bought a physical copy than you probably will need a CD key since your Battle.net account doesnt yet know you own the game.

My boss just sent out an email saying hes taking tomorrow off. I couldnt help but wonder if hes playing D3. Since I downloaded the game a few weeks ago I think Ill trash that and redownload the entire thing again just to be on the safe side.

So lets see...thats seven hours ahead of Central US Time so it should be ready for install by the time I get home from work. w00t.

Yeah, you cant pre-install the download version either. Just one more day, hell yeah!

Thank god you guys dont have milk-in-bags. Wacky Europeans.

You mean at least for the next 96 hours? Which reminds me, I dont want to just put my Battletag "out there" so if you or anyone else wants some MP action PM me your tags and I will respond with mine.

Nice! I dont think I will get a physical copy since I got the game for free by signing up for the WoW annual pass. Just fyi, you can log into your Battle.net account and predownload it.

Like a bad drivers license photo that gets seen by people daily.

Huh, I didnt know you had to get Kickstarts permission. I thought you just start a project and it either lives or dies by reaching the funding goal.

Is that a trailer or a cartoon they are developing along with the game?

Yes, those involved are currently standing trial for the crime. Did you think they werent being brought to justice? If only they had used pepper spray we wouldnt have had this tragedy.

I keep Steam in offline mode but no matter what, whenever I log in, it downloads something for TF2. I dont even know what its doing.

This was the final nail in the coffin for me. I had 3-4 planets each with a few heroics to do and every day I would log in and fly to each planet trying to scrounge up a pug in trade chat only to see 10 people on the entire planet. And I was on a supposedly well populated server, Corellion Run.

Okay, I can agree with a lot of your points, nobody hates it more than me when something I buy doesnt work as advertised but I do not agree that companies are actively plotting against me in a criminal manner. We will never know how much is really lost to piracy (I have no idea) but I cant fault a person/entity for trying to protect their interests be it through DRM/lawsuits/online requirement. Cmon now, two wrongs dont make a right. They deserve to get ripped off because they tried to protect themselves? What? Im not sure whats disproportional? Them trying to protect their interests? They should just shrug, iyo? You seem to be trying to obfuscate the point behind, "well look, you did it here so its should be a free-for-all"? Heres where I disagree. Just because technology has changed doesnt mean ownership did. You wouldnt walk into a book store and slide a book into your pocket (well, some of you would) but beacuse that book also exists in digital form everyone should get it for free? Because they deserve it? Again, I dont feel like they are actively robbing me.

I want to be sure I understand your position and you didnt answer my previous question. Are you trying to say that because injustices have occurred before thats its now ok? Yes, of course, except for the post just two previous.

I see what youre saying but I dont understand your point. Are you trying to say that because injustices have occurred before thats its now ok?

All you guys are doing is trying to whittle down the discussion until you produce some cant lose scenario. "We can cure cancer in tards", "What if that one book that 5 people want isnt for sale", "The villagers that live in cow dung huts deserve it", "So do I because those villagers have it". Its all BS to make yourselves feel better. Stealing is stealing. When we talk about piracy we all know exactly what were talking about, the stealing of luxury items that you dont want to pay for, not some pie-in-the-sky idea that by downloading the latest game/music/movie youre saving the world. Prison is full of people that are convinced they are innocent, but that doesnt make it true.

Thats one of the campy things I love best about those 90's action movies. I present you with Commando: Hes firing a belt fed M60 and you may notice ~20 rounds hanging by his left hand. He killed about 50 people with those 20 rounds.

Didnt one of you Brits take over an old oil rig or AA emplacement and declare it a country?

They were afraid they were going to have to change the name of the islands? Lol, trust me, if that were possible it would have been done by a sailor. The reason was a few bars got trashed.
