Go gently caress yourself. I built this place. You and your 2001 reg date. I was around when this place first showed up, go ask Lowtax or any of the guys who were here since the beginning. I just had to rereg because I lost my original @aol.com email address access.

S'all good, I've been so out of touch with Razer products that I thought it was the 3-leg thing + RAZER written next to it.

ps: That's a count of 8 times ($40) this morning I've changed mine, and paid $9.95 to change 3 ($29.85) others. God I hope it's Shitizens doing it.

Sounds about right. The 3.0 demo is probably the equivalent of Dragon's Lair on Laserdisc.

The issue is that SA plc is routinely and consistently LYING to goons about the TRUE state of the avatar revenue. If the admins were telling the truth, aside from the alarm that it would cause, there is a very good chance that even their most hardcore goons would likely have red texted (as so many already have) by now.

The defense would like to call "Fuc"... Somethings Awful user F.u.c.t.i.f.i.n.o to the stand.


MISTER FUCTIFINO... can I call you Fuct? Mr. Fuct, as you know, this is a serious case of law and your responses could seriously affect the outcome.

IS IT TRUE that SomethingAwful charges its users money in order to change an AV-A-TAR?

-Yes

And is it not also true that "MODS" can change avatars, for free?

-Yes


And are *ahem* S.A. users FORCED to change their AV-A-TARS?

-No


The defense rests, your honor.
