The fact that Halo Online hasn't had a beta/alpha just goes to prove his point.

It's not set to be released until later this year, the hackers got the early build before they even had an alpha. :lol: :fp:

Woovie is the ROXXERRSS, he's maybe 30 something but he's definatley one of 2 things if not both: has diabetes/is a virgin. Tick as appropriate.

Photek wrote:Yo Trelliz, why did this happen then?

Microsoft issued Digital Millenium Copyright Act (DMCA) takedown notices to the copy of ElDorito posted on collaborative code-sharing site Github, and it has since disappeared. But the ElDorito team hasn't been put off.


Yo Photek, is this a trick question? It happened because the DMCA is an act that has become law that companies can use to dispute copyright claims - that much should be obvious.

I don't understand what you're asking - must be my tiny mind again, silly me :roll: - are you asking that if some people don't like a particular law, how did it get used? That makes no sense. Just because a law is in place it doesn't mean we all have to agree with it or like it, especially something as ephemeral and abstract as copyright law. I have already said that what they are doing is probably illegal on several counts, both infringing trademarks/copyright and theft of code, but that doesn't make it any less interesting to follow, or as an opening point to a further debate about ownership, sales and other things in f2p games. This is the first time I've heard of a f2p game being outright copied in such a way.

Piracy != theft. It is a massive logical fallacy. And yes, copyright infringment is illegal. That is because there are laws in place that make it so. However these laws were created artificially and put put in place by those with vested interests in maintaining the status quo or who are unwilling to adapt to changing customer needs and expectations, and who are especially interested in naturalising and internalising the natural or self-evident nature of such laws.

Wat on earth are you talking about? Brer's point was that an unreleased game that hasn't had an alpha/beta already runs better than MCC.

But it doesnt, it runs better than when MCC launched maybe...but it doesnt run better than MCC now.

Trelliz, honestly, im not reading anymore man, sorry like.

TL:DR to the max, fine nothing is illegal at all or whatever your point actually is.

I didn't realise that an intellectual debate can drive someone to use ableist pejoratives.

I'm apologising to Trelliz for not reading his last post in full, I take nothing back from my neckbeard/diabetes/14yrold/virgin comments because at least in interviews about this, thats exactly how they have come across.

You obviously didn't read his last two posts if that's your stance or you don't understand English.

Apparently he's someone who has diabetes and is a virgin.

To think you'd actually lower yourself to such insults because of your precious MS loyalty. Jesus :fp:

Do you often contemplate the complexity of life?

I don't even understand how having diabetes is supposed to be an insult.
