[quote who="Wizard1956" reply="22" id="3403109"] You "deserve" working software. That is what you paid for.[/quote] I'm going to guess that your pay check relies in no way on your interaction with your customers. I started typing more, but honestly I have much better things to do. Good day.

...displaced paternality, what are you talking about? i obviously got much more out of the article, as i wrote much more, including a very clear statement that i was not attempting to be obtuse. it appears you have difficulty deriving meaning from a string of sentences, because the thought did not end where you originally quoted. did you read anything else, or just get stuck on that 1 sentence? this ease-of-use that youre referring to

@Moshi, good points! Jafo, from a reader's perspective, concluding your posts with that smiley face makes it nigh impossible to determine whether or not you're being serious. If the underlying gist of my posts is still eluding you(?), I will better explain the context behind the line you quoted.

TBH this looks like a pretty serious rip off of Ubisoft's work; and the graphics look quite dated because of all the platforms they're targeting. "Tribes of the East" was/is actually pretty good IMO, with some amazing mods as well. However, more competition for the genre is never a bad thing. Edit: Disciples 3 REINCARNATION ended up being pretty good too.

I suppose my earlier post could be summarized as a commentary on Nokia's rivalries, relating the "epiphany" revealed near the end of the article to Apple's mastery of marketing and opportunism, not ingenuity, which would denote progression. Personally, I don't see children sleeping with phones under their pillows as a good thing, in any way; other than targeting the economic focal point. We aren't going to get stronger by making things easier, and watching a mass

Yes you can select "Cancel" rather than "Done", but it's too easy to change what you're researching by accident, just because you were researching Civilization and you went to browse Warfare.
