    @spychi: StarCraft 2 is a great and expensive game. If there was every a game that deserved it's price tag, StarCaft 2 is it ... even without LAN and other things.

    @DSQuid: No, what you're doing is asking for uniformity. What if all animals had the same genetics? What if all people had the genetic make up of a body builder? What if that particular genetic make up is not the best despite the fact that, on the surface, it appears the best because they are the strongest. Uniformity is NEVER good. Out of the goodness of your heart and sympathy for the human condition, you are misguidedly trying to remove an important part of the lives of millions of people like me. I do not appreciate it and I am so thankful I did not grow up in a socialist or communist country.

    No one needs to support me and I don't need to support them. There's a difference between cooperation and supporting someone and there's a vast difference between competing and stepping on someone. Know the difference and you'll see why my point of view is the best in terms of getting back to the natural laws of the universe.

    You define great simply as rich.
    You could not be more wrong. In fact, in most of my posts I've praised the poor who rose up to a higher class as being more "great" than the rich. The rich mean nothing to me. You're still thinking of this in terms of the capitalism vs socialism which I keep trying to tell you is not my point. I'm arguing about the less motivated and intelligent people being given the same benefits as the more motivated and intelligent just because the lesser people would be living .. well .. lesser. That's exactly what you meant when you said that a place like Miami Gardens should not exist. Clearly, you know nothing of Miami Gardens or else you would know EXACTLY why Miami Gardens is the way it is. The people here are one notch above a monkey in terms of cooperation, intelligence, common sense but also lack the motivation.

    when you are the rich amuses me greatly.
    Where did I say I was rich? I am far from rich. I'm a poor college student and I come from basically nothing. How the hell could I be rich? Even if I was, that's irrelevant because I said that it's usually the rich people that do less with their resources because of a lack of determination. If the motivated lower classes had the resources that rich did then they would've done much more ... but they would not have this motivation unless they started from less. It's a cycle of nature and it's at the very core of evolution. You are trying to destroy this balance and it will ultimately result in only the weakening of the very system you're trying to strengthen.

    Now, I never said that you had to be completely cold-hearted to your fellow man to be great. Now, I think you're just subconsciously trying to misunderstand so that you can have someway of ignoring my points. All I'm saying is you need to respect the natural balance of the world and let the people prove that they are worthy of comfort instead of giving it to them. That would deny progress and, worst of all, would deny them the satisfaction of their own accomplishments.

    I am apart of the very demographic you seem to be wanting to protect yet here I sit, telling you that I prefer this method which you foolishly believe is somehow against me. My word should hold weight with you because I am the poor who, according to you, are victims of capitalism .. and yet I defend it and tell you that it is the greatest system in the world. Take this into consideration and think long and hard about why that is.

    one thing is for sure, if Blizzard will stick to the developing direction they took right now they will loose more and more fans and I am an example of that
    I don't trust them anymore, I think it's a greedy company since WoW and the merge with Activision, I hope they will bail-out if they will keep doing this bullshit they were doing for the past months and I won't even feel sad about it

    If SC2 is missing LAN, they may be more inclined to just buy 5 copies, crack it, and all play LAN off that single copy and use the 5 real for battle.net at different times.
    The other 15 people might buy SC2 eventually, but if they wait until its price goes down then Blizzard has lost money.
    Here's another situation that is much more realistic in my eyes:

    There's a dorm with 20 people. StarCraft has LAN and it's easy to burn copies of. One person buys the game, the other 19 have a blast playing with their friends for free.

    Your situation hasn't happened, mine has. How do I know? I was in that dorm.

    Or treatment if you're stupid enough to ruin your own organs through excessive smoking or excessive drinking.
    Yes, in my opinion, that person should die. As for diseases that are not the fault of the person, it would depend on the disease.
    All that matters is the survival of everyone's respective 'race'. Minorities are each part of a different race despite the fact that they have the same number of lungs, the same organs, etc.
    I don't know where this came from. I'm talking about the individual striving its best to strengthen itself and, in turn, strengthening the system. I have no idea how you figured race into this. In fact, I was defending Mexicans and Black people as having more emotional fortitude because their environments have strengthened them while the wealthy white people are getting weaker each generation. White parents have given into comfort and have refused to strengthen their children through discipline which has resulted in emotional distress in our teenagers. This manifests itself in numerous ways that can easily be seen by simply attending a high school. What I'm talking about are the old philosophies that were taken for granted as "No shit sherlock!" but are now some radical idea. That is why modern nations are being weakened from the inside similar to Rome.
    I'm not saying that some of these didn't exist in other, less advanced cultures but that most of them didn't.
    That's exactly what the fuck I'm saying. When a creature gives into comfort and ignores its basic role, problems such as this develop. Glad someone finally understood what I meant
    Apparently ambition and intelligence, according to you, makes people far superior.
    Yes, they are. They worked hard, achieved, and earned the comfort which, under capitalism, they will be rewarded with. The stupid decisions you've mentioned are just another example of human folly. I never said some people were perfect. I only said they were better. This is completely irrelevant of race or anything. Any individual without some horrible handicap has the ability to, through hard-work and dedication, achieve the greatness mentioned. And, yet, almost 95% don't because it takes more effort than they are willing to do. Why are they not willing to work their best? Because mediocrity still results in comfort and the meeting of all basic needs. Those in "lesser advanced cultures" who do not have this luxury achieve far greater progress simply because they continue to progress because they know that otherwise they will perish. That is why I said only a threat to the creature life and jolt it out of a comfort coma. This is why I do not believe in saving people from their own problems. It is neither good for them or for the group.

    Or how about doctors, who claim to know what is best for us, keep prescribing the same antibiotics and then now-a-days, they are saying things like, "Oh, no
    This remind me of a doctor that wanted to put me on Seroqual because he thought I was a hyperactive kid. Now, Seroqual is being sued for millions and millions because of various problems it has caused. Meanwhile, I solved my problem by simply .... wait for it ... WORKING!!!
    Does that mean I should spend the rest of my life doing labor because that's apparently what I was biologically designed for?
    You took what I said in the wrong context. What I was saying was that, through work, adrenaline and endorphins you build up through the day are then converted into serotonin and dopamine which gives you a pleasant and relaxed mood. If you do not have this conversion, which naturally only comes from hard-work, physically exertion, and working towards some goal then you will not be happy. If you do not work hard then you will develop a tolerance to these chemicals because they are always there and at a certain level. This causes the problems mentioned above. I'm not just pulling this out of my ass. I've read about this extensively when reading about body building, growth hormones, and to see various effects of medicines I was taking. A quick google search will show you what I mean. Now, this is just the chemical aspect of it. The mental aspect feels something like the person does not believe they have achieved much and has a low self-esteem because they have not proven to themselves what they can do. There's other problems but I'll leave it at that now because I think I've shown that I was not talking about "Put the blacks in the cotton field!".
    Does that mean that, despite my accomplishments, that I shouldn't bother because people who are more experienced and/or are my seniors say that I'm not biologically albeit in different words?
    I don't understand. Please clarify. To me, it appears you were thriving under pressure and against all odds which is exactly what I'ma advocating. I never said people who deserve something are always perfectly rewarded. Again, that's a human error that would be releaved by getting back to the basics.
    In short, it's not just drive or ambition, it's also luck and contacts.
    See above. I've been saying this for several posts

    Rich people are not superior to me in every way.
    Are you a drug dealing murderer who never tried to go to school or work? If not, then this comment doesn't apply to you.

    So are rich people still superior to me in every way just because I'm poor?
    No. In all likelyhood, you are superior to them because your environment has strengthened you while there's weakened them through comfort.

    I probably missed a lot. I'll try to get to it later.

    I thought that we all should be united when dealing with stuff like that because it's for the good of us all as we are all gamers, I was wrong, fanboys and retarded people will remain

    Your opinion is not as "obviously for the people" as you believe. Read the above posts to see what I mean or stop responding to me. You're dangerously close to restarting the cycle for the 98347537457394797th time.

    I am not arguing with you or with your posts, I just stated once my thoughts about things that would work better for others than me
    you guys might have diffrent ideas about how real social life should look like, ok fine but if you are a gamer and you choose to work or join a community that is full of gamers but you don't think like a gamer , than wtf are you guys doing here
