Microsoft bans "small percentage" of Live accounts - Death Threats in Reaction

[Modbert]

careful.. she's been proven to be a giant fail and using the term family will give her the option to "win" this by banning your ass.

Oh, I know, I am being quite cautious. Don't need to give her a excuse to wield that banstick. I've seen her threaten to do so against you in the past.

Hell ... you can even still email Bill Gates through the MS website ... but he doesn't have anything with the company for the last decade, other than still collecting a paycheck.

1. Bullshit. He was the CEO until 2006. He did a lot more than collect a paycheck.

2. What does this have to do with ANYTHING?

Nothing, she's just jealous of Bill Gates.

One thing about business that people don't seem to realize, all that information is already accessible. The one point about this story that sends up huge red flags is that they don't say which number the calls were made, nor which email. If it's his personal ones then those who did should have gone to jail for many reasons, none of which was stated and the story just dies. If this was more than a publicity stunt the story would go on, more people would have reported it, and those who made such messages would have been jailed. None of that has happened, most of the IRC chat networks don't even know this happened. IRC is not just an isolated chat program ... it's a network of a lot of chat servers, and you move from one channel to another with the click of a button, many log onto several channels ... rumors spread very quickly, stories like this are wildfire in IRC ... but nothing ... so yeah, this looks more like a lie the more I take this story apart, it's a PR stunt, nothing more, to get fanbois like Shogut's attention and scare them a bit. The reality is that most of such mods to the X-Box are undetectable to the server, so even if they tried they would have only gotten a few of them, and as I said, not the ones who made the mods but some poor sap who bought a used system to save a few bucks in these times of economic turmoil.

No, this is not a story based completely on fact, and MS is famous in the computer world for stunts like this, it's not unheard of. Here's a clue: Doubt everything you read, unless you are in the fire you don't know what's burning.

Again, your little crusade has NOTHING to do with this thread. I could care less what you and your little IRC buddies think. Look at the guy's twitter page, he proved it was him. If this was a Linux user who had death threats, you'd be waddling to his defense. You're a sick excuse for a human being for trying to defend some of these psychos. How would you feel if someone threatened you or your family? Would you call it whining you sick, sick person?

That wasn't a "crusade" that was the culmination of my points into one completed thought. It's my fucking debating style, many like it because it makes you think about things from different angles before I post my actual position on it, and it's completely focused on the story you posted, which is, a PR stunt and nothing more, period.

indeed. which is why I offered the warning. Clearly, when shills can't back up their statements there is more than one way mold the thread.



OH SHIT! I bought a used copy of tiger 07 and now the MS-Police are kicking down my DOOR!

AND costumers of GAMESPOT! the BASTARDS!

I heard he puts a 360 on a fishing line and catches little children with it.

Nitpicky, I said "decade" as a round number this time, because I lapsed in the exact year he had left. Also yes it does, because your brain is unable to see the connection doesn't mean there is none, it just means you suck at seeing other view points.

Slander is illegal. Do you have evidence this is only a PR stunt?

No? Then shut the fuck up and stop looking like an idiot.

No, it means I suck at finding logic in a series of psycho babble bullshit from someone who is batshit crazy.

It's 6:09 PM EST, do you know where KK's evidence is? (Because I don't.)

It's all in her head.

Koder, no one gives a shit about your excuses for failing to back up your asinine statements. Seriously. YOU don't "get people to think" about a goddamn thing outside of lining up like a fucking zombie at a mac store. You have yet to post anything from ANY other angle than crotch level to Steve Job's trousers. true story.

It is a crusade, one that you try to be at the helm of. If that's your debating style, I suggest you learn how to debate. This coming from a person who has been debating for four years. If this were an actual debate, you would of been laughed out of the room by the judge a long time ago.

Slander is illegal. Do you have evidence this is only a PR stunt?

No? Then shut the fuck up and stop looking like an idiot.

I thought "lack of evidence" was evidence? However, you are talking about a company that has lied many, many times since Gates stopped caring about it, so my proof is their history, which demonstrates that they are not above such tactics. They won't even release the real numbers on this ... probably because people found the real numbers on their "market share" were not those which MS released ... they got in trouble for that one. So their new tactic, don't release any numbers, just estimations.

In debate, we call this attacking the messenger instead of the message. It means you fail.

Obama has lied many times in the past. Thus, I have just proven he lied about where he was born.

The United States has lied many times in the past. Thus, I have just proven they lied about being responsible for 9/11.

Clearly you see how fucking stupid you sound, right?

*rae* You debate? Could have fooled me.

If you want a real debate, post a real story on something, then we'll debate. Hint: When I am debating I take the "unpopular" side ... always.

I never disagreed with you on those ... did I.

By unpopular side you mean the side of the criminally insane?

 

[Jon]

I never disagreed with you on those ... did I.

Well, since I never argued either of those points, I can't say one way or another. But if you fail to see the fallacy in your logic, then I fail to see a reason to continue this conversation. You're insane. And I have plenty of evidence to back it up.

You and Charlie Bass have something in common then. You can be batshit insane together. Though by "unpopular" I am sure you actually mean: Batshit insane side.
