I think to the people responding to you, they were speaking the truth. I think there might have just been a gap in communication. I hear you though.

I'm literally in those hallways right now.

You may be overestimating the number of people actually upset by this fairly basic sales/marketing tactic. They are trying to get people to use their online service. They are offering a small, super minor and unimportant bangle to do so. If you don't want to subscribe, stop caring about the bangle.

Great! It sounds like you are agreeing with me. Which leaves me confused as to why you would post this?

What page is the rule on that says that undefined rules are to be interpreted as per Maxperson's opinions? I'm not sure where you're going with this.

When something is undefined, sometimes there is no default rule (ideally there is, but sometimes there is a hole that can't be plugged by the rules). There is no fallback that's absolutely definitive, so it's just left in limbo. It kind of feels like you are trying to create a 'default rule'...

Paid Time Off... more commonly known as 'vacation'

I don't think he was being backhanded... you were being a snob about it! Come on now... your words:

Love to see that too!

Maybe we do have a new winner. Do you have any links to back up your numbers? My gut feeling is like yours... BG3 crushed it. But I like to have some hard facts on my side before I get definitive though.

If you think accusing someone of transphobia or bigotry is against the rules of the forum (I'm sure it is, and if it isn't, it should be!), why would you go ahead and do that exact thing in your very next sentence?

This is a pretty long and seemingly, at first glance, a hateful post. If you want to tighten that up and make another post, I can give that another read.

The way they responded was perfect; they protected their interests. They created businesses that were high risk, but they got after it when that risk came calling.

No, they were not bad businesses. I, again, very literally, in the post that you quoted, said that they weren't. Yes, honestly. You're trying to paint a picture where something absolutely horrible, terrible and world-ending is happening, when in actuality what you're describing is what...

I understand. But when you write something, then attribute it to me, then put it in literal, actual quotes... you can see where that would rub me the wrong way I hope.

What are you talking about? That's like saying Jumbo Video and Blockbuster should never have existed! What I said, very literally, is that if you start up a business, and that business has a huge inherent risk i.e. being wholly dependent on another business's presence and goodwill, you better...

That's cool. I honestly have no hard feelings about this conversation. You've had good points in posts I've read in the past. I'll be more than happy to have more discussions with you in the future. In case it wasn't clear, the quote you manufactured was this one: 'Hasbro totally missed the...

The first thing they should have done is realise that they created businesses that were 100% dependent on the existence and good will of a singular other business. When you are in that situation, real life will happen, and you are at heavy risk of having something catastrophic happen to you, and...
