I play video games too, very violent ones at that. Why must you express how ignorant you are ? Just because i can see where he is coming from doesn't mean i favor his opinion. You'll do anything to be right won't you.
The problem is, you do not see where he's coming from. You think he's been arguing for something he isn't. He doesn't blame parents, he blames developers, Rockstar especially. Saying I'm claiming the same thing as Jack when I say parents are at fault is completely incorrect.
But you have before, and you need to learn not to do that shit, after the fact. Any idiot knows their boundaries. Funny how it's so dramatic when someone dishes out the same treatment to you.
And? Aren't you the one who tries to "play the bigger man?" Sandy vagina, thats all you are.
I don't know what QQing means. But i can imagine it's something rediculis. I don't care about reputation or being rated, I only wished to point out how you insulting me in your rate down is a very weak move, but whatever makes you feel comfortable, like calling people idiot or pussy. Real lame.
QQing is crying. Ridiculous is spelled Ridiculous. You don't care about being rated but you'll cry about it.
How is that Back pedaling ? I told you the same thing twice practically. Except the point i was making the 2nd time is that you know there is a problem but you complain when someone see's the side of someone fighting it while you don't give a crap about others. Back pedaling what ?
And if your talking about that Gametrailers thread incident where Tristam posted that bullshit back pedaling remark towards me, it's clear I never did. I stood by what I was saying before and after that. Tristam failed to explain to me how i was back pedaling. If you can explain it, then be my guest.
It's back pedalling because you said I don't fight it like Jack does, then said you never told me to fight it like Jack.
{{{Then I said : "That supports Jack's side of the battle". }}}
But it doesn't, because it isn't Jack's side of the battle.
Jack is a practitioner of law. He'll list reasons as to WHY games should not be allowed and that is something that supports his case. Now THAT Skaw, is back pedaling, except your so sure your right you can say anything.
Jack isn't a practitioner of law, since he's bent it so many times like a kid fixing a slinky.
It's THOSE people that have Jack trying to tackle the gaming industry. People who wern't taught, nor were they taught by people who were willing to pitch in. I shouldn't even mention pitching it when everyone believes it's only up to the parents to make sure their children are raised properly. But in the end, if someone like Jack were to succeed the rest of us would end up losing our privileges when it comes to being able to purchase games Legally. Well not the rest of us. This is an American conflict.
No, the people that have Jack trying to tackle the gaming industry are the people who want to shelter their children in isolated bubbles without explaining to them the evils of the world. Again, you're really displaying that you have no idea what you're talking about
American Government expresses themselves really good, and they even treat their own people, and the rest of the world like gold eh ?
Ok that was SORTA uncalled for, just don't "Maybe in Canada" me. The truth about your situation in the states is that your free to talk. If something like video games gets outlawed, it'll not longer be available for purchase. Sad but true.
"Talk" isn't the only form of Speech, dipshit. Freedom of Speech is the freedom to convey your ideas. You're legally entitled to be a Black or White supremecist. You're not legally entitled to kill a White or Black man because you view them as a lesser race. You can follow whatever god or devil you wish, as long as you're not sacrificing any living person or thing in the name of them.
And there's where i prove I am not an idiot. I never said it has to be mandatory for people to have to look after other peoples kids.
I never said you did. I said Jack Thompson is.
Also let me remind you, Just because I see why Jack is attacking the video game industry doesn't mean I'm backing him up.
Backing him up with incorrect reasons.
Keep up the make belief. I pointed out to you before and even showed you how you keep transforming in the midst of topic discussion. seriously dude, screw on your head properly.
It's not a belief, anyone viewing this thread with knowledge of Jack Thompsons actions can tell you that you have absolutely no idea what he's about. Infact, you've been told a couple times already by people other than myself.
As for screwing my head on properly, kinda hilarious coming from a guy who believes aliens taught the mayans about the future.
How many times do i have to say, I DO NOT CONCUR WITH JACK. I DO SEE HIS REASONS FOR DOING WHAT HE DOES THOUGH. Again you ignorant dumb fuck, I'm a gamer. My favorite game is bloody Ninja Fucking Gaiden you stupid child.
Again, the problem is
you don't see Jack's reasons for what he's doing. What you think he's for and what he actually is for are two, almost opposite agendas. He isn't fighting to place blame where blame is due, he's trying to scapegoat an indirect source of a problem long plaguing the youth of the world as being the main offender. If you cannot tell the difference, then you're an even more sorry excuse for a person than Jack is. Atleast
he has a reason to do it, as the very people that are to blame are the ones filling his pockets.
Very late edit:
These people hire Jack because they do not want Rockstar(or any other developer) to sell their M rated games to children. Last I checked. Developers aren't retailers. They sell their product to Wal-mart, Toys R Us, Gamestop, whatever.
Those are the pople selling the games to children. Gamestop and other game specialty stores probably have very strict policies that result in firings so I'm sure maybe 1 person out of tens of thousands of sales sells to a minor If that. Wal-mart and Toys R Us hire octogenarians to work the registers, so they're either ignorant of the rating system and aren't taught about it by their Employer, or people who do not care at all. Again, this comes full circle back to the misinformed/uncaring adult argument.
Yes, some video game developers have online shops. Online shops that require credit cards. Credit Cards require you to either be 18 or older to have, or be on a shared account with someone 18 or older. Which legally makes someone connected to the Credit Card an adult.
Even in a perfect scenario, where all register jockeys do not sell to minors. You'll just have the same thing with alcohol and rated R movies. Minors will pay a random person to either buy it for them, or act as their parent and get them what they want. Something I'm sure a good portion of people here are guilty of doing when they were young. The developer has absolutely nothing to do with minors playing M rated games. End of story.
