Addditionally, other paying customers have the ability to oppose your POV and call you on your complaint. |

Its amazing to me how g****** entitled some of you people think you are, simply because you pay 15 bucks to play a videogame. ..Someone made the comment about "what if your electricity goes out for a day..".. Um..personally..I go the hell outside if that happens..but maybe thats just me.
My point is simply this..yes we all pay a monthly subscription fee to play CoH, but NOT, NEVER, ONCE have we been promised, or guaranteed that the services we pay for, (the game) would be up and available at all times, whenever we wanted. Things happen people and getting on here while your in the middle of a little nerd rage just so you can sound like a whiny 2 yr old who missed out on a lolly, doesn't solve anything at all. Though it does give those of us with higher functioning brains, something to laugh at on occasion.
Instead of complaining on the forums during server downtime, why not think up a forum game, or ...DUN DUN DUN, actually come up with something valid to discuss instead of getting in a cluster**** and crying like kids at a daycare. ...Just saying...

. So instead of worrying about important things that actually seriously impact our lives people are too busy worrying about whether or not they got shortchanged a couple bucks (at most) on some video game that's still hands down a better value than any other entertainment out there.

Yeah... That is classic. |
. You can call me out on that all you want. I'll gladly worry about people more than I'll worry about a video game.

For a bit of further clarification, since many people seem misinformed, the freedom of speech those in the US like to comment on isn't, by any means, a universal guarantee of the right to speak out on any topic, at any time. It's only a guarantee that Congress (and later, through judicial action, that other US lawmaking bodies, ie states) wouldn't make laws restricting free speech.
Court orders, business arrangements, employers, employees, social groups, contracts of all sorts, religious obligations, and professional organizations all have legal rights under some circumstances that limit speech. And the US 1st Constitutional Amendment doesn't alter these at all.
Whether or not that is a good thing may very well be open to debate, but the US 1st Constitutional Amendment isn't near as far reaching as many people seem to think. It is a very powerful piece of legislation, but not boundless.

The boards are essentially private property. You have only as much freedom as NCSoft/Paragon Studios and the mods allow you. They can remove your post for overuse (or underuse) of the word "pink" if they so choose, and you have no recourse. They can mod or remove your posts for no reason whatsoever, if they want. NC *lets* you vent/complain here. If they said "That's no longer allowed," then it's no longer allowed. There is no "freedom of speech" here. |
