[citation][nom]tlm man[/nom]No, you certainly did not, but expecting that your complaints will produce results every time is just mind-numbing stupidity. Some users in this thread are practically demanding it be changed and are claiming it's an affront to our Constitutional liberties and God-given rights...Yes, resale is legal. That does not mean denying resale is illegal. Logical fail.Don't like it? Don't support the company. Speak with your wallet, not your clearly uninformed mouth (not directed at you, personally).I'm sick of consumers who want everything handed to them. Start taking responsibility for your own actions and research things before you support them. Ignorance is the reason the industry is dominated by sub-par sequels and droves of overpriced DLC.[/citation]
Now I know you said it was not directed at me, BUT .... here is the thing you sir do not know who is informed or uninformed in this argument that has been set before us. Most consumers do not do enough research to justify a bitching session. This is a given!! BUT ..... those of us who care about where our future lies in the great beyond of impractical business practices dont have much choice in the matter play the game or don't play the game. BUT..... the problem is that the companies doing this know that if there are not any other choices then they can model it the way they like, such as Apple, Microsoft, Steam, Origin, Banks, governments, and the different arms of the entertainment industries. These entities want us policed so as we don't get money they think they deserve. Well who is there to police those entities that wants the money we deserve. These entities also think they can tell us what to do and how we should have to hold it. This is absolutely absurd!!!!! Don't they get their money from us the people, the consumers, the little guys? IT IS OUR RIGHT TO DEMAND A BETTER SYSTEM!! At least one that is beneficial to all. Now .... it is highly improbable that my last statement will actually happen because most people (for some reason) believe that these companies and entities have the right to treat us as they wish. Saying "Speak with your pocket book" is not a good way of acting. We must use their methods and that is the LAW! There are not enough people that are willing to give up playing the game to step up to the companies. THIS is why the method of "Speaking with your pocket book" will not work. Some policing must happen and the Trade Commission must step up. Courts and governments are investigating these practices I can assure you and rulings are being made. Now these businesses MUST be held accountable and MUST change their ways. It is either this or our freedoms as we know them will cease. When an individual no longer can own a piece of property whether it be land, a car, a book, a game or what ever it will be a bad day for humanity and bringing us back to Government/Corporate controlled police state.
