x-no-archive: yes

Dave posted a proper, honest and very worthy post about his
experience with steam and what do we see? the usual bunch
of pro steam valve fanboys threatening insulting terrorizing
him just cause he questioned valve and steam

and this has happened since the beginning
anyone criticising valve is flamed and called a troll

its a shame! a total disgrace what a minority of posters want
to turn this group into
but let me make this very clear
i will not let you bullies terrorize this group and make it
a dictatorship were no freedom of speech is tolerated!

i'll fight you and everyone doing valve dirty lying propaganda
till the end!
i don't care about your threats and insults cause you will never
kill freedom of speech in this group!

Ehh - excuse me Sir!
Could you please be so kind to tell me which group of the four:
comp.sys.ibm.pc.games.action, comp.sys.ibm.pc.games.rpg,
comp.sys.ibm.pc.games.strategic, alt.games.half-life you are refering
to when you say "this group"?
Otherwise I think you really should use the phrase "these groups"

Btw it might be a little over your head but Valve is not currently
involved in any role playing games or strategic games for that matter
at the moment
I can't for life understand why you need to post your message to all
four groups?
Couldl you please explain this to a thick headed Valve fanboy like
myself?

Thank you

FYI. Steamenvy is referring to a post made by Dave Mennenoh in CSIPGA. The
response from various regs in there had little to do with Valve or with
bullying and/or freedom of speech and more to do with the fact that everyone
had been there, done that and were heartily sick of it.

Sayno2reality is going back in the KF.

Terrorizing? But seriously.

How can you be the judge of proper, honest, and worthy, with a
handle like "steamKILLER" <sayNO2steam@yahoo.com>

Software publishers have every right to thwart piracy. If you
can't steal it, maybe you aren't trying hard enough.

All that matters is that software publishers aren't harming our
computer or violating our right to privacy.

You have not heard of DRM, yet, have you? You have not heard of the
linux Version of Acrobat Reader which was "foning home", yet, have you?
You have not heard of any software, telling its publisher things about
several information when running, have you?

Well, then I am convinced that you believe in software publishers saving
our privacy.

Proof = Url to articles from reliable sources
Otherwise it's just heresay and rubbish

Btw if Valve ever was caught in the act of collecting information from
the consumers PC's I don't think they'll last very long in the business
Some countries has excellent laws with regards to consumer rights etc

And believe me some is very eager to find the proof if exists

But i dont know why i bother replying to you, your just a cross posting
troll.
