Quote:I should probably recorded the whole convo when i was idling on the PoN vent where GFunny said all he cared about was getting some inf and Elf Stalker was negotiating his own trade.1. That is not how I heard it, but anyway not trying to get into the whole, you say this and other people say that. Even if you are right your basically making yourself sound dumb. You paid for other people to be on your team so that they can be happy hmm that sounds no different then paying for one of your friends to have starting spot on a team so that they be happy regardless of talent.

Might as well roll SS if you are going for a brute

Quote:Ok, if there is the possbility that people from the draft aren't actually going to be played by the team that dratfs them, then go ahead and count me out of the draft. If someone wants to form a team, then I'll join one of those, but I'm not going to bother going through the trouble of setting up to play in a League if we're not going to play. Thanks for your time.Quote:
THERE IS NO RULE THAT ANYBODY ON ANY ROSTER MUST BE PLAYED, IT WILL BE AT CAPTAIN'S DISCRETION.
I don't think it will be enforced for practices and you are really not entitled to play in officials just because you are on a team. -

It's ok. The animations are hella rooting but the D.U.S.T cannon looks awesome. Only level 8 so not sure about damage output yet.

Dear god Chaos was a thread about the spam really necessary?

Quote:You have no right to be concerned. Only ridiculed.NCsoft may conduct such monitoring, including but not limited to monitoring in-Game communications and Message Boards provided by NCsoft as well as third-party Message Boards and the like.
NCSOFT HAS THE RIGHT, BUT NO OBLIGATION, TO MONITOR OPERATION OF ANY SERVICE, CONTENT OR SOFTWARE AT ANY TIME
The rest of the EULA is pretty standard but the above two sentences does raise a few alarms with me.
1. How would they monitor third party message boards? Would they contact the administrators of those websites, give them credentials and ask them to release account registration information attached to a particular user name?
2. The second sentence is rather broad in scope. What if NCSoft decided to include a spyware (however benign) in an update in order to facilitate their monitoring of the users system operation, such as unauthorized executable files running in the background?
Either of those *might* run afoul of the federal privacy laws though it is really a gray area. It is more likely that these sections of the EULA is actually exploiting the lack of a comprehensive U.S. internet privacy protection law. Still, NCSoft needs to be very careful what approaches they take as I'm sure a lot of people have multiple layers of security protection on their computer as well constantly monitor their system process for foreign executables. If such spyware accidentally captures web browsing data streams while the game is running, the protection offered by the EULA would be null and void since that is unrelated to the operation of the game. Well, whatever the legal case, it would still be a PR nightmare if uncovered. -

He may not appreciate you doing that.
Thanks for quoting that post by Zwillinger, TerraDraconis. -

Quote:Cute. I use steam yes but i can decide what it has access to. Ncsoft will have access to all my storage devices.Presumably you don't use Steam then? Or play anything that needs Punkbuster? Or play any other MMOs? Or install and use anything like Mids' or Herostats or Titan Sentinel (or their equivalents for any other games)? Or, in fact, install any software, including operating systems, on your PC, or connect it to the internet?
Someone said it better than me on another forum
Quote:Who cares? Signing over any rights to them to do anything with your hardware is dumb. I went and uninstalled all my NCSoft programs, just in case whatever system they deem to use is too broad for my taste. Cheating in an MMO does not bother me remotely as much as a company trying to use their software to invade any of my privacy. Sorry, I just don't trust them nearly enough for that. -
I prefer paying a player for xp using in game currency over offering a RMT company real money.
Quote:Roflthe other a filthy cheat who ruins the game.... -
Quote:And whatever monitoring they will use will be exploitable. And for this old game a sandbox is not worth the effort.AKA, we might check to make sure you're not trying to cheat.
You have to understand that EULAs are written very broadly to provide the maximum legal protection to the company in question in the event that a user tries to sue them for doing something such as implementing anti-cheating measures. Irrespective of how legally enforceable EULAs as a concept may or may not be, they can *never* trump your local laws.
Do not think for one minute that what NCSoft are putting in their EULA is in any way "worse" than any other company providing any kind of software or IT service. -
Quote:I mean the privacy section.You mean the "THIRD PARTY TECHNOLOGY" section? That would be referring to, specifically, their usage of Cider (for OSX support), Qt (for the market's HTML rendering engine), and OpenSSL (for, you know, SSL).
NCSOFT HAS THE RIGHT, BUT NO OBLIGATION, TO MONITOR OPERATION OF ANY SERVICE, CONTENT OR SOFTWARE AT ANY TIME AND IN ANY MATTER, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO MONITORING COMMUNICATIONS AND COMMUNICATIONS INTERFACES, STORAGE DEVICES, RANDOM ACCESS MEMORY OR CPU PROCESSES RELATED TO HARDWARE YOU USE WITH THE GAME. SUCH MONITORING MAY ALSO INCLUDE, BUT IS NOT LIMITED TO, MONITORING FOR THE PURPOSES OF DETECTING SOFTWARE UNDER SECTION 8(c) or 8(e). YOU CONSENT TO THE FOREGOING MONITORING AND ACKNOWLEDGE THAT NCSOFT MAY, AT ANY TIME, AND IN ANY MANNER, COMMUNICATE ANY INFORMATION BETWEEN HARDWARE YOU USE WITH THE GAME AND ANY MECHANISM NCSOFT MAY CHOOSE FOR SUCH COMMUNICATIONS. YOU ALSO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT AS A RESULT OF SUCH MONITORING NCSOFT MAY IN ITS SOLE AND ABSOLUTE DISCRETION TAKE ANY ACTION, OR NO ACTION WHATSOEVER, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO: (i) CHANGING ANY PORTION OF THE SERVICE, CONTENT OR SOFTWARE; (ii) SEEKING RECOURSE AGAINST YOU BY WAY OF ANY PROCEEDING NCSOFT DEEMS APPROPRIATE UNDER THE CIRCUMSTANCES; AND/OR (iii) DETERMINING THAT YOU ARE NOT IN COMPLIANCE WITH ALL PROVISIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT AND TERMINATING YOUR ACCOUNT UNDER SECTION 3(b) OR SECTION 3(c). NCSOFT HAS THE RIGHT, BUT NO OBLIGATION, TO PROVIDE YOU WITH NOTICE BEFORE SUCH TERMINATION.
Im considering unsubbing. -
After reading it, the whole part where you allow them to install spyware is worse than anything i heard.
