[QUOTE=benzi2k7;31790134]they're comedians and not getting sued[/QUOTE] Oh, so you're only allowed to make fun of things when you're being paid for it? And I bet you if they were getting sued for some obscure reason (like notch is) they would make fun of it.
This is the kinda shit that makes it hard to hate Notch.
Have Bethesda accepted yet?
[QUOTE=Sanius;31786891]or he could go to court and settle this instead of acting like a manchild I really don't get the obsession with this guy[/QUOTE] if you think being a man means not having fun (whereas fun is restricted to children) then i think your perception is skewed and you have no place on a forum made after a video game

And I bet you if they were getting sued for some obscure reason (like notch is) they would make fun of it.[/QUOTE]You're allowed to make fun of anything you want but I'm talking about this specific case against this specific man-child.
how is he a manchild for being chummy online like he's always been unless you actually think he meant he wants a trial against bethesda in quake 3 in which i'd have to ask you to share that amazing crack you are smoking.
[QUOTE=benzi2k7;31790247]You're allowed to make fun of anything you want but I'm talking about this specific case against this specific man-child.[/QUOTE] If I was in Notch's position with his amount of money, I'd so have fun like he does. what complete idiot wouldn't? And he's doing this only if Bethesda agrees on it fairly, everything about this is made to be balanced. You lose, you lose, you win, you win, thats all there is too it.
[QUOTE=benzi2k7;31790247]You're allowed to make fun of anything you want but I'm talking about this specific case against this specific man-child.[/QUOTE] You do know that Notch probably doesn't genuinely believe that this'll be solved like this, right? It's a bullshit claim that Scrolls is worth suing, and he's responding with an equally bullshit challenge. A bit of trolling, yes?
p sure this is like someone offering to play baseball to settle the fact that they beat my dog!

But I still see nothing wrong with it. [QUOTE=benzi2k7;31790341]this is a guy who got married in a fedora[/QUOTE] If I had his money, I would do that too if I wanted to. Who gives a shit? live in style. You don't have to marry in a specific suit you know, and seeing how he does this and does it as if theres nothing wrong with it, he obviously can take things a whole lot less lightly, and if obviously far more mature than yourself.

I'm a bit iffy on legal matters, and I normally love Bethesda, but I honestly hope they do make it to court just so they can get fined for a frivolous lawsuit.
[QUOTE=benzi2k7;31790341]this is a guy who got married in a fedora[/QUOTE] And? He really goddamned loves that hat. And now you're bringing up irrelevant information. He doesn't take things seriously. And?

[QUOTE=J!NX;31790356]its a bit of genius trolling at that. But I still see nothing wrong with it.[/QUOTE]it's not really trolling if bethesda can tell it's a joke, they're both lawyering up in the background
[QUOTE=Cone;31790378]And? He really goddamned loves that hat. And now you're bringing up irrelevant information. He doesn't take things seriously. And?[/QUOTE] wow repetitive much
[QUOTE=<VET>Jasper;31790334]p sure this is like someone offering to play baseball to settle the fact that they beat my dog![/QUOTE] Except dog-beating is really serious and demanding justice for it is perfectly reasonable. Whereas Notch v Bethesda is just silliness.
[QUOTE=<VET>Jasper;31790397]wow repetitive much[/QUOTE]And?
[QUOTE=benzi2k7;31790391]it's not really trolling if bethesda can tell it's a joke, they're both lawyering up in the background[/QUOTE] Of course it is. Notch is showing that they're being dickbags by them being serious about something so frivolous, which is why everybody thinks it would be a good idea for Bethesda to accept the challenge. A counter-troll, if you will.
[QUOTE=benzi2k7;31790419]And?[/QUOTE] huh? what do you mean? huh?
[QUOTE=benzi2k7;31790341]this is a guy who got married in a fedora[/QUOTE] right he's a manchild for wearing a fedora sure i can accept that but not because he made a joke to his minecraft chums
Wowwhat a game of trolls trollign trolls guys, you all have this figgered out for real!
[QUOTE=Kung Fu Jew;31790459]Wowwhat a game of trolls trollign trolls guys, you all have this figgered out for real![/QUOTE] If Notch finds something funny, it almost always involves trolls.
when you play the game of trolls, you win or you die, there is no middle ground
[QUOTE=benzi2k7;31790476]when you play the game of trolls, you win or you die, there is no middle ground[/QUOTE] And Bethesda are being srs. They're dead. [I]Unless[/I] they take up Notch's offer.
I think Notch is giving Bethesda a chance to turn their image around in the eyes of the people that are loyal to him. If Bethesda is smart, they should take the challenge and thus improve their image and get some publicity while they're at it.
I would play on Notch's behalf.

The I've seen places with split bases between Bethesda and other companies. It'd be nice for the Bethesda supporters there to know that it isn't entirely inhabited by fuckwits. Edit: [QUOTE=lukepker;31790634]I would play on Notch's behalf.[/QUOTE] What's your highest K/D ratio in a game?
If Bethesda disagrees and hides behind their lawyers, the gaming world will forever know them as a bunch of big ass pussies.
