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.

If shutting up about a valid complaint is a requirement for the aforementioned respect, then I'll continue losing it.


I see a DRM thread created once every few days and it's the same every time.

However, locking them doesn't change a thing. Another one is started within a few days. The same people show up to sling mud at each other.. rinse, repeat.

We should just have a *DRM Pro vs Con Fight Thread* here where we can go to call each other crybabies/sellouts. Perhaps that would cut down on the new threads and the resultant crying about crying.

Maybe somewhere in there, someone will mention if the crap has been taken off by Ubi so some of us can actually buy it and deserve to be here. Which seems to be the primary complaint thrown back at us.

It's more the hopping into the forum - stirring up trouble and hopping out again, usually using a very tenuous link between a valid subject and DRM to shoehorn the argument in. That's when I loose respect for people - You see it's trolling pure and simple and I have no respect for trolls.

Q: Why is it that when an anti DRM thread appears, pro DRMers want it shut down, or herded into another thread or generally complain about it?

A: Only a certain elite thinking people accept full time internet connection when they don't need it. That's why this thread should be closed and other anti-drum threads banned and anti-DRMers sent to the brig.
