    The Court has ruled that Grokster can be sued if its software is used to illegally swap music and movies. The Court also said cable companies can deny rivals access to broadband lines.

    Your support helps the ACLU defend privacy rights and a broad range of civil liberties.

    The ACLU's vision of an uncensored Internet was clearly shared by the U.S. Supreme Court when it struck down the 1996 Communications Decency Act (CDA), a federal law that outlawed "indecent" communications online. Ruling unanimously in Reno v. ACLU, the Court declared the Internet to be a free speech zone, deserving of at least as much First Amendment protection as that afforded to books, newspapers and magazines. The government, the Court said, can no more restrict a person's access to words or images on the Internet than it could be allowed to snatch a book out of a reader's hands in the library, or cover over a statue of a nude in a museum.

    "You get to say the world is flat because we live in a country that guarantees your free speech, but it's not a country that guarantees that anything you say is correct." - Neil deGrasse Tyson

    So Hez, yes this country guarantees your free speech (1st amendment), but it doesn't mean that we have to put up with your lack of attentiveness to being intelligent or anything you say is correct or intelligent. If you want to be respected on the internet, in the classroom, in the workplace, or any social circle, you might want to try a bit harder to not intentionally stupid (because it's obvious you're being intentional).

    Well I'd be happy to respond to your question about "what is going to change about potions?". That's English and a coherent thought that I'm glad to respond to.

    What is going to happen is that we are going to be balancing potion damage a little bit when it applies to armored targets. It's still in testing. More news will come as we have exact data. Talk to Random0ne or NDV if you are interested in participating in the testing going on the test server. We'd love to have a pro potion bomber who believe in "potions for life" to help with the testing.

    When you're not getting what you want, you somehow have the ability to communicate correctly. Now you become an idiot once again. Quite amazing.

    Quite a testament to the quality of our public school system when someone with your communication skills, IQ, and EQ can sustain a 4.0 GPA.

    Why are you guys attacking a 10-year old for saying stupid crap online? Why can't you just ask him to stop? If he doesn't, you have all power to force him to.

    Also Hez, stop saying stupid crap online. Most of the people here are adults/teenagers. Regular adults and angry teenagers (like me). If you wouldn't say any of this nonsense to adults/teenagers in real life, don't do it here.

    ... Yes, we are such bad people. Which is why you clicked 'like' on our posts.
    Also, this was dead for 5.5 hours before you replied.

    I wanted to be silly and reply to you out of the blue 5.5 hours later as well, but I am sleepy, so 4 hours will have to do.

    Just because he acts like a ten year old does not mean he is ten

    Doesn't mean we are required to treat him like he's not.

    I see both of your points, I just thought yours were more humorous and that his were more irritating.
