It's still illegal, though.
You must live in an archaic back water. In most western countries it's legal.

I blame Canada....LOL!
That's okay, being in Canada I can't use it either. It's region locked against my IP.

An internal policy document wouldn't have to start by defining what a 'server' is in plain language.
The policy documents that I've read do, but it all comes down to who is writing the policy books, or tomes, or fucking volumes. Nothing like 8 5" binders for policies that you need to read when you get hired at a police service these days.

Only an idiot would believe this is genuine...
I'm guessing you don't see many disclosure documents that are handed out to law enforcement. I've seen a few like this.

Pretty standard across the board with boilerplate stuff saying 'the law is this pertaining to this, and we adhere to this policy based on this law here'.

And these are randomly appearing ones? I'm not that far into the game yet (mid 20s now), but getting one-shot by random encounters sounds somewhat annoying, and a repeat of Oblivion's horrible level-scaling.
Yep, those are randomly appearing ones. I do have to agree that the level scaling needs working on, especially HP's and resistances.

Oh they do happen, it seems that a lot of the dragons in the 10's through 30's are there so you can build up your souls to buy your shouts. Later on they're tough as hell. Once we get the toolset, it'll probably be one of the first mods you see out there. I've looked via tessnip, but there's problems with getting things properly working. My mods of the dragons just CTD out. Prolly because some script is being incorrectly saved.

I wish the dragon encounters weren't so routine. Instead of having you fight 100 weak dragons, they should have only made a handful of epic level dragons.
Run into an elder bronze yet? At level 40 it chewed me up and one shot me repeatedly.

However, I've only met 5 dragons yet in the 30+ hours I've already played. It's ridiculous. None of those encounters have been attacks on towns btw.
There was kinda a point where I was wondering the same thing, then the bastards came out of the woodwork looking for my blood. I just ran across my first elder dragon at level 38, took me a good bit to kill it.

PS: Dramatic story, btw! Too bad I hardly meet any dragons at all :\
Really? I spent the night in dawnstar, and walked out the front door. The town was being roasted by a blood and frost dragon. I promptly got chewed on and thrown half-way across the world it seemed.

They're out there, very random. But town attacks are pretty amazing.

I have no idea who thought that was a good idea.
They probably brought in someone who's been doing 'blog page' web redesigns. Especially since that seems to be the new hot shit right now. You know, thin, wasted screen real estate and all that.

Take note industry types. You have people in this thread, who are paying customers, and their only hold up on buying your game, is the ridiculously draconian DRM you have placed on it.

Meanwhile pirates play it without any restrictions at all.
Truth right there. Looked at it today because I saw it on the steam page, looked at what the DRM was. Said screw it. Yep, lost a sale just like that.

Another simple answer: Just avoid the forums like the plague. Problem solved.
Good plan, especially if a company gives a website as an option to their customers. Now there's a punishment too, do something we don't like, and don't toe the line. We'll not only ban you, but lock you out of everything you've ever bought.

Yeah it's probably a good idea for them to reevaluate that. Especially if they want to avoid lawyers, and such suing them into the dirt.

Oddly I haven't even played the original one, but people keep saying it's great and fun. So should I snag it or wait for a sale?

edit: SC4 Deluxe is on sale on Steam for the next 20hrs for $5.

Beamer wrote on Nov 16, 2011, 13:22:
Why?
For one, having a Facebook account is normal now. It's a sign of a decently adjusted social person. Not having one sends off alarms of Unabomber.

But even then, perhaps the profile is just hard to find, so not a huge deal. ...
Which candidate do you think the recruiter will be acting on?
Obviously this is the difference between Canada and the US. In Canada, requiring something like that is a violation of the employment and hiring act. Plus in Canada, despite being prolific at having FB accounts, privacy of the individual still reigns supreme, because it's protected in codified law.

To plenty of people, having a FB account means that it's a cry for attention, because you don't get enough of it.

You don't sit around going "I'm so special, I don't have an account" without realizing it kind of makes you look a bit insane and, these days, potential employers consider it a bad thing.
Any company that hires or thinks that having a FB account is a requirement can piss off. Insane is lighting cats on fire and launching them via a catapult. Smart is not following the groupthink, and throwing your privacy to the wind.

You DO NOT need a Facebook page to enter.

Read before complaining
No you just need to provide all your personal information to facebook still. No thanks!

Unlike 40-70% of society, I don't have self esteem issues, or have a need to indulge in narcissism.
