    I think that's unfair. I've read about this subject on the internet too.

    You were asked very straight forward questions that you ignored as you see fit (a method you are very familiar with). That technique won't work in court... Only solid evidence would, something you can't provide.

    I don't know you at all. My dislike of your discussion style is based entirely on your discussion style.

    Actually, I started off by wishing you were luck in the case, on the condition that what you were claiming was true.

    I'm now of the opinion it's all probably untrue, it's you that doesn't have any grasp of the issues, you're making suppositions based on racist opinions, and you don't have any proof that is likely to stand up in court.

    Of course, I could be wrong about that. But hey, I'm not the one asking for money.

    [Edited to add] Oh and btw, we've never met, nor to the best of my knowledge have we ever worked at the same company, or had any other contact outside TCE at all. I really don't have any reason to hold a grudge against you, or be prejudiced. But you tell yourself that if it makes you feel better...

    It's obviously targeting people that want to play games when they shouldn't be.

    Naughty.

    Hardly the sleeping dragon rising, is it?

    "Bored at office/classroom/home?" So it's encouraging you to play it on... a PC? :-k

    Installing it on my college computer during break. I teach games so it's "research". Takes a while to load, but cute loading animation.

    My character's name is Brucie Babe.

    No chance.

    You won't believe any evidence. I have proved my case many times.

    Calling a Chinese game a Chinese game is not racist. I do not have racist opinions. And I have Chinese friends. It is you that is committing libel now.

    I have everything I need and more.

    You are right for once. You are wrong about that.


    You are spot on here. People who have met me don't behave like you do behind your anonymity.

    I hate to burst your bubble but if you do end up fighting this in court you are bound to be asked if you've actually played the game before writing about it.

    If your defence is calling Evony's lawyers names I don't think it's going to go well for you.

    Honestly, you must admit it's not great to write and publicise a bunch of negative opinions about something you haven't actually played.

    I mean, you're complaining about how people are treating you having never met you personally. Isn't that sort of the same?

    Bruce is worried about all those lost man hours due to distraction at work. When he's done with Evony he's going to go after those motherfuckers at Facebook.

    Network connection errors. :( I can't log in. It's probably trying to hack into the college network and add communist material into the curriculum, but the security system blocks it. :(

    Money.

    Money for legal fees that you should have known you couldn't afford.

    You were after money remember.

    No, but saying that Chinese games are a threat to "the rest of us" is.

    Then perhaps you need to reconsider your online persona, because I'm telling you: online, which is all I know, you come across as a complete twat.

    I'm sorry. I completely refuse to read any of your posts until you change that extremely distracting avatar.

    American crayfish are a threat to UK crayfish. Am I racist?

    And American squirrels. To other squirrels I mean, not crayfish.
