"Please check your network settings."
Hi, Bungie. Your servers are still broken, and you still insult me every single time I receive an error code that tells me to check my network settings.
Instead of "please check your network settings," can you change it to "pardon our dust?" That was always cute. You guys are adorable.
I look forward to the day when I can actually play this game for a significant amount of time without getting an arbitrarily-named error code accompanied by your patronizing, slyly condescending nonsense. I really look forward to it, because part of your team made a solid game. I'd like to play it. That was the intention, right?
I understand federal law requires corporations to put profits ahead of every other interest (a needless law if there ever was one), and I get that you already got our money when we purchased the game. So, mission accomplished. But how about a little favor for us, just as a sort of thank you? Make it so we can play the game that we bought. Just an idea... It might actually affect your profits positively in the long-term.

8 RepliesTo be clear. This was the exact statement I am refuting- [quote] I understand federal law requires corporations to put profits ahead of every other interest (a needless law if there ever was one).[/quote] I maintain that there is no such Federal Law as you have written it above. Sure there are laws governing corporations to the extent that they can be regulated in a free market economy, (anti-trust, pollution limits, licenses, etc.) but there is absolutely no such Federal law that "requires corporations to put profits ahead of every other interest." As you have claimed. You use the word "every" which is the biggest red flag of your whole postulation. As I said, I can create a corporation tomorrow. I can make it the goal of my corporation to NEVER make a profit. In fact many smaller corporations are set up to do just that. All profit could be rolled back into expenditures and growth, and at year end I can legally post NO PROFIT on my tax forms. I could legally "put 'expansion' above all other interests (including profit)." (...Using your exact wording.) This happens all the time, in the real world of which we are both a part. If your fantasy law were true, this would be illegal, as you absurdly claim that all Corporations are Federally required by law to put profit (not expansion or anything else) above all other interests." You are 100% WRONG. Sorry.
