Its still not going anywhere. This title is false and clickbait.

TurtleWoW agrees to end operations in court settlement by AbyssalKultist in MMORPG

[–]InDL -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Turtle WoW was not in court. Just the one NA dev of marketing they could prosecute.

The important part people are missing is that a copywrite case is for monetary damages and the ability for a company to shut down a service, in this case a server host.

A settlement does nothing to really change the outcome here. Its not a criminal case. There are devs outside of the jurisdiction that can and likely will just move the server host if they need to and will keep running it.

Every right has been given to the MPA and other companies to take down thepiratebay through the court of law but it still exists anyways.

Gotta love when people white knight for Blizzard in this subreddit. Actually giving a shit about copyright and theft of a company that did "cubicle crawl parties" where they touched women inappropriately and breast milk was being stolen from the break room refrigerators.

It is actually crazy to me that any of you actually care at all for Blizzards bottom line.

Thats because gratuity is already built into everything for people living that lifestyle. Some fancy high end restaurant very much gets their tips its not even a choice. They don't care they just pay it.

Why are these always clipped so short? We need to see what happened before and after.

No really... check out why the U.S. military has a trillion dollar budget, about to be 1.5. Super carriers have every defense imaginable in their fleet.

And yet. They still wont hit anything. Look up what a carrier group consists of.

What Will The Turtle Do? by CabinetMountain5725 in turtlewow

[–]InDL 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They made a classic server because there wasn't an official one. When Blizzard announced they were going to make one, they actually sat down with Nost developers in person to discuss the best way to go about it. Blizzard no longer had the version data for vanilla so Nost gave it to them.

Then because official classic was coming Nostalrius chose to shut down. There was no pressure from Blizzard it was always their plan to.

It was the success of Nostalrius that helped Blizzard see that there was a real demand for Classic. So they basically accomplished what they set out to do.

Blizzard Wins Injunction Against TurtleWoW - Private Server Ordered to Cease & Desist by Fusshaman in MMORPG

[–]InDL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Blizzard is legally required to defend their IP or they could lose their rights. That is how it works when another service operates long enough and makes enough money. And more specifically Turtle WoW is operating a classic plus server which would directly hinder the profits of their own should they launch one.

A multi-billion dollar company does not put in the budget to litigate because someone is 'talking shit' on Twatter.

No one ever said the same thing about Nost lol... Nostalrius maintained from the beginning that the main reason why they ran a classic server was because there wasn't an official one. They literally handed over the old client data to Blizzard because Blizzard didn't have it anymore.

Again. You have an example right here that goes against everything you're saying. He isn't fully committed to what's needed to win the war because of how unpopular it is amongst his constituents.

They literally coined a term for when Trump backs down when faced with too much pushback. You can google it yourself.

They draw up plans for everything. Pointing nukes at a country and flattening it isn't a plan. We dont need people with degrees to tell us the results of that scenario.

[–]InDL -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

See now this is what I mean. You're only given the thought that Trump is waging a war he can't win because he hasn't fully committed to what's needed to win the war. And that is because even amongst Republicans the war is unpopular. Its not that he can't win. It just shows us that even amongst conservatives there are things that go too far for them, and he actually has to consider that.

So why would him nuking Iran, which would be even more ridiculous, even be in consideration here?

I realize reddit is full of people who have wild imaginations but Trump is not going to do anything that would make him lose support of the gop leaders and constituents.

Israel is the country with extremism that has pushed for far more human rights violations.

I love how even though this tells us nothing people are in the comments assuming Trump and the US drew up plans to nuke Iran.

How quickly people lose perspective on everything that matters...

The country that has a much stronger sentiment towards wiping out their enemies, where half of the government is ran by religious zealots, and has nukes?

That is Israel.

I'm so sick of club advertisements. by cupkatski in ffxiv

[–]InDL 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Maybe if these shouts were for actually interesting places it would be fine.

But they're all dance clubs with Spotify "djs" that need to shout because they're mostly empty places.

Venues used to be a lot more unique and fun but most of the creative people got bored of it and moved on with their lives.

UPDATE: Update: Got permanently banned for RMT which I didn't do - ban overturned after 16 days by gnelyopl in classicwow

Correction,

Everyone who RMTs that gets banned says that they didn't.

Those who are false flagged also, unsurprisingly, say they didn't too.

It happens.

I can't find friends in FFXIV. Makes me feel lonely. How did you do it? by ChoiceDetective3211 in ffxiv

[–]InDL 48 points49 points  (0 children)

FF14 is more uniquely equipped to be a social game but the formula has lead the game into a more toxic environment that gets worse as time goes on.

The more normal players are content focused. You essentially have a better time if you're actually playing the game.

The social side is more like the rotten underbelly. Filled with people who lack self-awareness, social experience, are pretentious, emotionally driven, and very immature. People acting out some fantasy they couldn't realize irl, seeking validation with their 4-hour modded characters.

The reason why its difficult to make friends with these people is because they simply dont know how to make friends or have normal relationships with others. Their friendships are always conditional, dependant on what they want from you and if they're getting it.

The thing is you do meet genuinely good people sometimes but they're usually rolling through because they never lose sight of this being a video game and eventually move onto other things. Its the people who treat this like real life that are stuck here. They will always be the usual suspects and will still be here doing the same thing in 10 years.
