/Requesting Permission
« on: Fri, 19 November 2021, 19:00:57 »
Would it be ok if Tp4 buys the Diablo prime evil pack for $42 ?

Or are we still under boycott blizzard ?

Is this a bad time ?   


Tp4 doesn't want to hurt the "Movement"  if that's still going on .. Thoughts ?

Diablo 2 > Diablo 3
I have been playing hearthstone since beta but have been playing all blizzard games since original warcraft. Personally, I am done. I couldn't get into Diablo 3 even though I tried.

The real issue is that I can't find any games that can fill the void like Blizzard can. :|

but it seems diablo 2 ressurected is well regarded.. (despite the early server glitchiness).

Tp4 is mainly concerned with the welfare of the social movement.

I'm not familiar with the subject actually.

The top bosses/ programmers' (frat boy culture) of blizz-activision entertainment drove a female employee to suicide after nude photos were shared on the floor.

Multiple accounts of harassment

During yearly meet ups, they rented out a hotel suite they dubbed, "the cosby suite", where they'd attempt to intoxicate female employees and bed them.

Apparently this has been going on for years and years unchecked.

Sounds pretty simple then - if those guys are still running the show no-one should support them by buying.  If the complaints have stopped it will only be because this is known and females no longer apply to work there.

The CEO has a massive golden parachute that they can't afford to buyout.
He's not going anywhere anytime soon.

Jeezo... in this case I wish I haven't bought it... :(
I guess I can't return it now.
I should have downloaded it from Pirate bay, so they would lose money.

TP, you should ask the question to yourself, do you want to support rapists and their apologizers? if so go ahead and buy any actiblizzard game you want, otherwise you may want to steer clear.

Indeed a moral dilemma.

Hrrrm... now that you mention it.

Cows only have milk when they're pregnant.
Cows are forcibly made pregnant by human intervention. 
Then they remove the baby calf from the mother because humans want the milk.
The calf is typically then left to die in a landfill.

So, The dairy industry is really the equivalent of Rape+Kidnapping+Robbery+Murder, but it's ok because it's a cow.

I thought they drugged the cows to think they were pregnant which is the cause of the increase in gay men (those who drink too much milk full of female hormones used to confuse the cows)

There are environmental chemical theories to the increase in Hsx humans.  We've seen first hand that animals such as fish exposed to industrial run off high in hormones have altered gender behavior.
