    Dear Escapist: Can you please restrict captchas to account registration?

    Heh, ignorance. Funny how people like you always have to resort to base insults and truly pathetic accusations because you can not handle that others are right while you just buckled and started sucking the corporate teat like a good walking wallet. Everything I said was correct, don't like it...

    Dear Escapist: Can you please restrict captchas to account registration?

    Its not about spambots. Never has been. The reason they use it is to annoy you into buying a subscription. Its all about inconveniencing free users with a constant stream of ads, captchas, popups and malware laden toolbars so you eventually pay out just to have a website that mostly functions...

    Jaffe: "I Couldn't Care Less About Next-Gen"

    Didn't Jaffe just release a crappy quality game that would have fit in in the psx era?

    Poll: Immortality, with a catch

    No problem. I would just hit a prison and slaughter all the scumbags.

    What pokemon would you use fly with

    Snorlax. Most choices people make would be uncomfy as fuck. Snorlax would be like a giant flying beanbag. Plus anything he lands on is a friggin pancake. And not a nice fluffy one either, were talking crappy McDs style.

    Hairstyles.

    Ugh, every time I get a haircut my wanker hairdresser styles it into a fauxhawk so I always have to throw a hat on when I leave. Generally speaking I don't bother and just wear a bucket hat. Bucket hats are awesome. But when I don't wear one I have it short in back and sides, a little longer...

    Girl, 16, offs herself after being forced to marry her rapist

    Read part 1: Now read part 2: Just had to point that out. OT: Sadly the one I am pissed most at is not even the rapist. Sure, he is a piece of shit and deserves a brutal death. But the fucking judge is meant to uphold the law and protect people and he forces her into a even worse...

    The Big Picture: Relics

    Yes I suppose it could have been a "black people could not have built this stuff" issue. Or maybe, just maybe, it was a much more common sense "People generally advance. So people today living in mud huts are not likely to have been from the same people who built castles. Otherwise why would...

    Has the ending of a story ever been rewritten due to a negative fan reaction?

    And yet having Frys mother fossilized would probably have been less upsetting for most people. OT: Evangelion and Fallout 3 come to mind. But plenty of things get retcons, reboots, sequels, spin offs and dlc so yeah, it happens a fair bit.

    Describe a scene in one sentence out of context

    So theres a half naked porn star, a virgin, a El Dorado extra, a Twilight wannabe, 3 bad ass vampire zombies and a guided frozen turkey missile all hanging around outside a porn studio. Serenity.

    Mojang and Bethesda Settle Scrolls Suit

    Holy shitballs. Common fucking sense won for a change. I suggested this exact compromise months ago. I should be a lawyer. If only I could handle the baby eating ceremony required to pass the bar... Anyway, I am now off to trademark all the vowels. I'll fucking own the world!
