I guess this thread is about DRM small talk, which should be fine.

I agree that its mostly veteran, paying customers who compain, it might be true that DRM slowed down the pirated versions but not without a lot of pain inflicted on the paying customers.

Q: Why do I need to stay online for single player mode?

A: Because you are a weak, charactless whimp who can't say no. Now go back to your room and be quiet.

Q. What if someone finds a security flaw with DRM and they hijack my connection to send me to a porn site?

A. Most porn sites provide ad funding for great features such as DRM so you should be fine.

Q. What happens when intermittent drops in connection result in the "No Internet Connection" box ONLY after changing something in a mod that you had to restart the game to test?

A. It will confuse you as to why changing a key mapping would break your internet connect, but at first you won't realize what it was because a missing tab (whitespace) in a python file will have made ALL warning messages pile up under the connection warning utterly confusing you...

Q:Why do I need to keep discussing a game I do not own?

A:Because you are a weak, characterless wimp who can't say no. Now go back to your room and be quiet.
