No, he does it later on, when they find out what planet the Princess is hiding on. It makes an amusing gurgle sound too when he does.

My anger at NCsoft hasn't clouded my judgement in the way you would think. For instance, there was another big drop in NCstocks recently, on November 9. While some others got excited about it, I immediately saw it as a knee-jerk reaction to the U.S. election results though, since that is what had taken place the day before, and that naturally would have a very rapid trickle-down effect.

Many companies being down right now is moot. We all know the economy sucks. What is more important is WHEN they started their slide though, and I'm willing to bet that none of the other companies mysteriously lost their upward momentum on that same Monday. Some investors are as timid as deer, dropping everything and running into the woods at the slightest hint of trouble, so the possibility that the Rally set something off doesn't really seem all that odd to me.

On your comment in parenthesis, I wasn't aware that I was expected to say Titan is not a hate group until I read that. I see no other mention of "hate" prior to that moment, so why did you think I was going to say anything about it?

Also, since you have now announced that you have a vendetta against the Titan-network because of an attempt to communicate things to NCsoft in a way that Koreans would more easily understand, I have a question. Why should I consider what you're saying when you try to tell me that the only reason I see a chance that SaveCoH affected NC's stocks, is because I don't like NCsoft? You're saying you have animosity against the Titan-Network now over racially-charged issues, and I'm supposed to assume that your opinion that SaveCoH could NOT have impacted stocks, isn't driven by the same emotions? Is that not a door that swings both ways?

By the way, now that the Pandora's Box of cultural racism has been opened, perhaps this one company has earned itself the distinct privilege of having their "culture used against them" as you put it: http://www.glassdoor.com/Reviews/NCs...ews-E23242.htm

I threw out Igneous all-together at one point when I couldn't find a way to chain IG to anything related to Stephanie. I tried Monster instead. Monster minus n e o and u s leaves m r.

Mr. Peebles? Which, after already finding Hit Streak, figured it was Black Pebble.

Gawd, wild goose chase.

Because in response to the idea that the SaveCoH rally triggered the landslide, you were saying, "No, it was the financial report." 3Q wasn't published until 2 months AFTER the stocks began dropping. So why would I think you were talking about the 3rd quarter?

Oh well. Regardless, the lack of anyone being around to keep an astroturfer on a payroll remains the same.

You mean the 2Q report? The one after which stocks continued to climb for a whole month?

BS?

Actually I had already thought cutting CoH might have affected prices on the day of the announcement.

The peak of that climb was the weekend of the Unity Rally. And the result of that was NOT just blogs and tweets. Maybe it was just blind luck then, that the highest NCsoft got in the whole 3 month span just happened to be that same weekend. Or maybe it was just Karma being the middle-man.

Oh well. We've established which people are REALLY dealing in absolutes and which ones aren't. Everything else is sheepdip now.

"The Game That Wouldn't Die", coming this fall to a drive-in near you!

What fascinates me here is, A_F, one of the people who claims to be on the side of common sense, is still accusing GG of not only astroturfing, but getting paid to do so. That G_G is still here arguing, contradicts that. There is nothing left to astroturf, and no studio left to employ anyone for doing so. If A_F were just tossing the fanboy/girl title around, that would at least make more sense.

But it sounds like there's much more of a personal grudge in this case.

In the absence of moderation, trolls can easily control any conversation however they see fit, or bury the topic under a pile of cinder, even if they're 'ignored'.

I saw that u did there.

And don't worry about it. Under Klaatuian law, it's not really REing.

Ohhhhh. Yep, got it.

Also, unless there's some way to side-step relativity ala "warp fields" or something, even if FTL travel is possible, and ever feasible enough that we don't need 10 billion tons of fuel to produce enough energy to push a teacup beyond that speed (just think about how expensive and immense the LHC is and that's just for particles at sub-light speeds), the time issue would make it very impractical. We already have enough trouble just with Daylight Savings.

Even when I first read the article about EA doing it, the term never got used. They just called it "professional trolling."

Also, I can't make sense of the metaphor.

Well, I can tell you what it ISN'T over...

So at what point does something become art to you?

Can we design our own Fujita scale for this?

Your sig... it wants a word with you.

Ironik gets it. *thumbs up*
