At this point, I think it's safe to say that WoWI has replaced Craigslist.

I certianly hope so. There are some hella-creeps on Craig's List. Besides, where else am I going to find s*x-crazed maniacs who like gaming as much as I do?

(Have I just made the implication that a thread is done when Tekkub and I hook up?)

See? it's better to scare away trolls than ban them, then you know they're not coming back.

Does it count if I show up with my shirt off? I'm decently bear-ish. (Lord knows I'm not a twink. I don't have the gear for it, and this thread is leveling me too quickly.)

That's where you're wrong. Terms of Service once written and in view and/or easily accessible to visitors. users, clients etcetera, is a legal binding contract as soon as you begin using that service weather you read the ToS or not.

Exclamation Don't be fooled!

Hi All,

I would like to start by saying I am a WM user and was very annoyed to find out that Curse and WI blocked WM from downloading. My view on the decision is that in no way was it to protect authors, it was purely a financial motivation. Curse and WI were unhappy that people were using WM to download addons, and not visit their sites which generate revenue by the advertisements appearing on the sites.

Furthermore, the complaints that surfaced from Curse and WI that WM did not provide links to the home pages of the mods and donation links was a complete load of crap, if both parties had taken the time to use WM they would have found that by simply by looking in the details pane or right clicking a mod that the menu gives options to 'Visit Official Web Page' or 'Make a Donation' which take the user to the proper web site, whether it be WM, WI, Curse, Wowace or any other web site.

From many posts I have read complaining about the decision most people including myself do actually visit the official web pages to read up on changes or post feedback/bug reports.

The argument put forward about protecting authors is also misleading, considering that most, if not all mods are provided by a GPL or similar open source licence which generally allow free and open distribution, so here is a warning to Curse and WI - be very careful with your false pander, you are actually breaking the terms of the open source licences by disallowing distribution by third parties. WM, authors and users have the legal right to file class action lawsuits against Curse and WI, which would result in severe financial losses so please reconsider your decision as who will you be helping if you have to close due to your own greed and misconceptions.

Um yes they do dood.

There's this show in NZ called "Fair Go"

It's a show where people submitt cases where they have been ripped off or given the go around.

Standard practice for this show is to go an consult the experts , the lawyers and what ever regulatory bodies necessary to see if they can get people better deals.

Whenever "Terms and Conditions" have come up they've said , after consultion with a lawyer that they can legally uphold them. On multiple cases. TOS = EULA = Terms and Conditions (sort of).

And mr Us some funny string of numbers man ...We still haven't heard wowmatrix's response to you .....

Wow. So much misinformation. To say that the users have a right to file a class-action lawsuit for a completely free-to-use service is so full of fail I'm going to stop typing right now and proceed to shake my head and move on.
