Aion servers stopped keeping track of levels & N.Korea goes CRAZY

In a secret room in a secret place is a terminal that North Korea's leader Kim Jong-il secretly plays World of WarCraft.  So secret because everyone knows all Koreans are suppost to be playing StarCraft or Aion.  But, 11/20 Aion issued a warning that the game stopped keeping track of level progress and was working on the problem, so Kim went grinding to level 80 on his new death knight, then the unthinkable....someone ninja looted from a 40 man raid, "Nooooooooooooooooooo!" he screamed.  Americans must die!!!!  He ran around in a paniced frenzy pushing ever red button he could find yelling, "F*** U ninja looter in California!  I'll NUKE your happy a**!"  In an unforturnate series of events, he pushes the wrong button and starts an artillery strike on South Korea.  Kim cannot appolgise because no one must find out a level 80 gnome yelling, "Sweet cheaks!" ninja looted a purple epic one-hand weapon.

It's a very confusing place out there.  Please stay safe and be nice to people when you play.  Aion servers are promising a fix shortly and everything will be back to normal.

"...North Korea warned it could follow up this week's deadly shelling with more attacks...." as their leader was thumping his mouse on the desk yelling, "I WILL KILL THAT GNOME!"

4 people died in that attack and 18 wounded.  Not something to make fun of.

Freedom of Speech is one of the rights many people have fought and died for. Maybe you would like life better in North Korea.

Uga, thanks for the laugh.  :thumbsup:

He has the freedom to say it no matter how tasteless and I have the same right to call him on it.  Also, freedom of speech rights don't necessarily extend to the internet, depending on where you say it.

Ironically your trying to suppress Jubreau's speech as you defend free speech. Free speech has nothing to do with either issue however because there are no government attempts being made to restrict speech. People have just as much right to say that somebody shouldn't say something as the first person had to say it. And of course you have just as much right to tell those people you think they are wrong.

Personally I'm not particularly bothered by Uga's post though, it just bothers me when people invoke freedom of speech in an inapropriate way.

His post was clearly a joke trying to add some levity to a very sad situation (eg n korea killed more than a few folks in the past 3 months vying for attention like a 4 year old). We cope with crap using humor.

Exactly, just like how Wikileaks is only exercising its freedom of speech rights when leaking more CIA dossiers .

Except of course, that the guy, Assaunge-whats-his-name (sp?), is a terrorist for saying that he'll release more stuff if people try to shut him down.

He's also announced that some Russian documents are going to be released on the site. I expect he'll last no more than a year before he "mysteriously" dies.

What does Wikileaks have to do with freedom of speech? It's not even based in the US. Sweden, I think?

Well after been hacked to death by US goverment because it was showing their dirty work and kicked clearly out of the US domains just to clear some names.

And then to finally trying to make it banned and unable to find a new worldwide dns to host again so it shows what they really are.

I guess freedom of speech goes flying out of the window.

Just search about wikileaks and read about it.

That is correct. Most of WikiLeaks' servers are based in Sweden, though Assange, the guy who runs WikiLeaks, has considered petitioning Switzerland for political asylum and moving the servers there, after Sweden denied his petition for residency.

Of course, he also has an outstanding warrant for suspected rape, sexual molestations, and harassment charges in Sweden.

Those charges were trumped-up by a couple of vengeful ex-girlfriends, who were in fact never raped and had sex freely and voluntarily with Assange, and even boasted about their respective conquests afterwards.  I don't know why Sweden is moving forwards with them.

The problem is that he admitted to having unprotected sex with several of these women. Which, under Sweden's laws, could very well constitute rape, even if it was consensual.

I'm Swedish and I've NEVER heard of that. It would be news to me if that was true. It would also mean that me and a chick I met two years ago are rapists  8O

 

The closest law to what you're saying is if you got HIV. If you got HIV then you MUST inform your partner before doing it.

Hehe are you saying that US citizens aren't allowed to say bad things about the government? Have you ever watched our tv?

Revealing illegally obtained classified documents is something that I don't believe would be covered by free speech in any country.

To be precise, said illegally obtained classified documents means the offender is prosecuted under the Espionage Act (in the US anyways).

It also means that Assange is an information terrorist, as it's quite possible that the information he's leaked on his site has caused the deaths of American military members or Afghan civilians.

There seems to be a lot of misinformation out there and the media isn't exactly doing a great job of covering that part. But from what I can tell the real issue is that he is accused of having sex without a condom without informing his partner about it. Supposedly it broke with one woman and he took it off with the second or something like that, and that is illegal in Sweden and considered rape. From what little I can tell, the evidence does seem a little fuzzy, but then he also hasn't been convicted of anything yet either.

If the definition of rape gets expanded to include "not informing partners about a lack of proper condom", rape will cease to be a meaningful term for brutally forcing yourself on someone in a sexually abusive manner.

It ceased to mean "brutally enforcing yourself on someone in a sexually abusive manner" several years ago. The media constantly "warns" about "homerapes" and that that type of "rape" is so and so much more common. So whenever I read "rape" in a newspaper I read the entire article to see if they're using the true meaning of the word or not.

States too engage in terrorist acts, like uhmm, illegally invading a nation bypassing all international treates.  That ring a bell?

Not really no. But then again, if I was running the US, I'd be flipping the bird at every major international treatise around, thereabouts.

Oh, yeah, and all those pesky arms-limitations conventions. I'll take my nukes with a side of chemical warheads plz.
