LOL A CATHARTIC IS A LAXATIVE.

no wonder you have had issues, you were constipated.


Adjective:
Providing psychological relief through the expression of strong emotions; causing catharsis.


You're dumber than a sack of hammers.

and youre about as bright a bag of bricks, because anyone with a brain, and firm grasp of the english language knows what a homonym is.

and anyone with even a shred of intelligence knows what a play on words is.

Just a quick question.. um when did we start using latin? Does that make us look smarter? Is it even latin we're using here or some form of greek...

Ergo!

Proxy!

Ergo Proxy! My favorite anime of all time. Everyone should watch this, and feel smarter because it's words that old people used! :D

This gets put in game my account would be cancelled before I finished reading the post.


Huge thumbs down worst idea ever. Stop being a lazy [filtered] and go farm your gear like the rest of the population.


I already gave up arguing, but you need to see the OP was being sarcastic. she was showing the ultimate end to the path EME is starting down ...

it's called reductio ad absurdum. she was showing How absurd the cash shop is, by fiollowing the argument of all it's defenders.... to their ultimate absurd, Logical conclusion.

where you need to buy an item from the cash shop to breath....

Like if every player starts with a permanent DoT. and the ONLY way to stay alive is to Buy relatively cheap potions 100/ 50 cents. And only if you always have these Pots In your Inventory do tou NOT lose health.

I Know people say " that's absurd" I agree it is..but according to ToS.... there's Nothing to stop them from doing this...

anyway... I said I would stop debating this issue, and I am. this is My last reply of an argumentative nature.

You miss the part where that definition is the noun version. I know, I know...you were just pretending.

Hearing you talk about a firm grasp of the English language is like pleasuring myself with a cactus -- slightly amusing but mostly painful.

And now I stop feeding you again. Starve, troll.

Come on Calypso,

You were there at the beginning of this whole fight with great arguments. I'm against the cash shop as well, but we shouldn't be resorting to these kind of threads like other posters spamming up the forums.

We've said our piece. Those that want to continue to support are going to do so. People don't like facts. That's ok. Just don't start using these tactics. You're too intelligent to resort to arguments like this. : (



It's not so much an argument, so much as the result stemming from the frustration of realizing that greedy companies will win, because enough gamers are self centered, ignorant, and thoughtless enough to actually thank companies for ripping them off, and attacking those who refuse to stand for it. Then gather around and imagine all the different kinds of stuff they can pay more money for.

This board is chock full of kids, who refuse to understand why these shops are insulting, because they have tons of disposable income and little value for their dollar and refuse to consider anything En Masse does as wrong.
Not just accepting the concept, but actually thanking them for it, enjoying it, and even fighting to maintain it, and fighting their fellow gamers who are trying to save everyone money. It's f****ing insane.

It's the realization that this game has too many idiots supporting the shop and that our worst enemy as gamers, is OTHER gamers.

It probably doesn't matter what we say. These people LOVE wasting their money. They're the same fools, who happily shelled out hundreds or thousands a month to Perfect World for slightly faster mounts, and would love to bring that same moronic ideal to this game.


I agree with you FiachSidhe, that gamers are wanting to defend this company and their tactics. Sadly, that's just going to happen. People want to pay more money for what they're paying for. Good news is, the MMO market is one the most competitive markets I've seen in gaming. There are so many other games coming around the corner. Games that look to other games and adjust to offer them better. Competitive games. Like Rift and their free server transfers.

I don't want EME to fall into a category as an example MMO. I want it to be better. We all do. However, those that want things to stay the same aren't going to switch their position because they want to be right, and feel that they are. That's fine too.


Agreed. I want to see the game do well. If En Masse wants to go the greedy route, they're going to do it. Luckily as you said, there are alternatives.

Now hold on, 'cathartic' and it's root, catharsis, aren't odd words - that's like Sophomore year English, tops. It's not like I'm calling every church an Ekklesia here.

Do I really need to apologize for the language I use -every single day-? I don't waste time looking these things up, yannow, I type stream-of-consciousness.

And yes, Ergo Proxy is quite good. =)

Are you high or something?


It's called argumentatum ad absurdum. google it.

its argumentum ad hominem or reductio ad absurdum, dont use them if you cant use it right.,

ffs, stop with the fallacy spam. you dont even know what a logical fallacy would look like if it slapped you in the face. ever since someone taught you the words, it seems you have to wikipedia them, put them in intermittently, then say LOGICAL CONTANT NULL.

you're obviously an english second language, quit touting that youre some kind of debating mastermind. you clearly arent.



I could so show you How Calypso's Gamer's Bazaar is.... ad absurdum. You can pretend that I do not Know what they mean...but you are simply trolling me at this Point...

5/10 for getting me to respond... here's a cookie

and you conveniently skipped over the part where the insinuation was a play on words.
like having a chinese guy ask if you can find the [filtered] in his broken armor.

since you have such trouble with homonyms.
