More pusillanimously sanctioned government cowardice to "protect" people. Shocking.

I'm guessing the site owner could just remove the comment before any damage is done,then ban the trolls account,but I don't think that would stop them from coming back to do the same thing untill the site is taken down.In a way it's a false flag with higher consequences.

it shouldn't be like this fucking assholes it should go like arrest the poster/troll not shutdown the site but thats in an ideal world you fucked up america i tell you time and again TRUMP IS EVIL INCARNATED
Well americans decided to vote for him so you guys enjoy him for the next 3 years.
they could close the site "lock down" more like it and make this site invite only

stupid republicans should've thought of that first i doubt a site thats console hacking would be a target imediatly especially if the admins are quick to ban trolls and I'm sure they track ip's saddlly if they realize it's a troll they'll arrest them cause i doubt they'll just go after temp anyways who knows the us government are the trolls for a loophole to shut down "legal" hacking sites
--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------
at this rate I am definitely fleeing the US for a different country (not canada cause off that post vietnam war agreement) maybe Philippines? somewhere cheaper

I didn't vote for either Hillary or Trump, but technically Americans did NOT vote him in. They voted Hillary in.

And people think that these kinds of things wouldn't go through Congress if she was in charge? If people didn't complain what Republicans did, they would complain on what Democrats would do just the same. Doesn't matter who would've won, people wouldn't be happy with what either one does.
^this. No matter who actually wins, they're automatically considered evil disregarding what they actually do as a president. Trump could do absolutely fuck all as president and ride it out and people'd still call him satan.

I'm not saying either candidate is perfect, people are never happy with who the POTUS is, it's always been this way. I didn't want Clinton to win based off of her policies including her support for the TPP (she "opposed it" but would have supported it), among likely being for sanctuary cities and funding them,
There are, of course, people who will invariably bash the people that run for the opposite platform no matter what they actually do, I'm not going to deny that.
That said, I think one of both the best and worst parts of the Trump presidency is that he's doing exactly that. Like, literally. He's done almost nothing, from a legislative standpoint. (Now, from a diplomatic standpoint, on the other hand...)
I'm not saying they are either. I couldnt care less about politics. I'm just sick of the constant baseless complaining.

@Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.+1 -

SylverReZ:
They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".

@SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme -

A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."+2 -

anyways, we need to re-normalize physical media+1
if i didn't want my games to be permanent, then i'd rent them -
@
BigOnYa:
Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.

@BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.
The issue is DRM -
@
cearp:
You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60
