you do realize this is a game, right?

in order to apply a real world term to the game you need to use context

go look up the server rules and link your proof it's larceny contextually, jackass

So you basically pulled a finder's keeper's and got mad when the rightful owner took steps to have it returned? That's called larceny.

I, for one, applaud the leadership of BDA for expunging an unapologetic thief.
LOL, you are a nutcase. It would be larceny if it weren't pixels. Call the fucking police and tell them someone stole your tranix crown on EQ and you want to press charges =P.

Let me be clear btw: I don't mean stealing computer data can never be larceny, but stealing an eq item can never be larceny. Although the elements of the statute are met, there is either case law to the contrary or will be as soon as a stupid fuck like yourself finds a way to bring this to a court.

Both of these can be addressed at the same time:

It's an example and a comparison using a real life term and nothing more. I find it interesting that he's been called a thief, but the two of you are not challenging the use of that word to a remotely comparable extent (read: not at all). Perhaps my usage of the word was too fancy for Wrench, but the example still stands both logically and contextually.

I am in no way suggesting that real life legal culpability exists. It was an example to point out that his actions in game directly mirrored a situation that is considered "very wrong" in real life.

Justice? Imo justice = someone picking the item up before aalpha.

Justice would be TMO members being held accountable for their abuse towards the server.

Our definitions of justice are quite different it seems, though. I like to see greedy cunts suffer, and you don't.

Besides, implying that justice = aalpha having his item returned means that there was some crime committed on the part of the person who picked it up. There was no crime, Aalpha made a mistake by dropping his tranix crown and an opportunistic player happened to notice and pick it up. This is not against the rules, and never was on live.
You are TMO's biggest advertisement. Everytime you rage... we get apps.

I want to take a moment to be completely fair to you in light of my last post which I submitted a bit too soon.

I can understand how what I wrote might be taken as a suggestion that some sort of real life cause of action existed. Obviously, it does not, and as I posted above I was never suggesting that. I had initially written "in real life that's called..." but the IRL was lost somewhere in editing. I should have left it in to avoid the confusion.

Because any confusion is probably on my shoulder's please note I don't mean to get uppity towards you. I did get snippy at Wrench given that he seemed to have understood what I meant because he pointed out that I was making a comparison whereas it very well may have appeared to to you that I was indeed suggesting a frivolous suit and not a simple comparison suggesting that the OP was a thief.
