Those same people are now running a "free" server with no ulterior motives, just being altruistic and generous, yea I'm sure. When they wanted to relive those glory days in the aery, they wanted to relive every aspect lol. I don't get how they can trust them either so blindly. People have just become dumber over the years as we are in this weird backwards far left utopia.
    I appreciate how you managed to project your politics into this as well; it's completely irrelevant and inaccurate.

    No one is being contrarian for the sake of it. Compared to how completely in lala land you two are.

    Who here is even running a PS? Why are you people so out of touch with basic reality?

    Who said anything about someone on this forum running a server? It was being talked about how they could potentially have keyloggers, use your personal info later after the inevitable downfall of that server (every single server before it has met the same fate, fading into obscurity) and how they are in it for profit behind the scenes. All of those things are probable and most likely true given history of private servers and the types of people running them. You just have some kind of angst against him and decide to be contrary to everything this person is saying. How are we out of touch with reality? You really think a bunch of neckbeards running a private server have no ulterior motives? Give me a break, that is as far from reality as you can be. At the minimum he is at least warning people to be wary of completely trusting them with all their info... Use different passwords or do anything to protect yourself because this is not some big corp, its a bunch of losers who never left dragons aery trying to relive their glory days and make some profit on the way.

    As far as the politics, its the only way I can reasonably explain how these people are. Just this guy alone getting bent out of shape and saying hes going to block people. That is the entire mindset, you don't agree with my opinion! how dare you, I'm going to silence you anyway i can.

    Your circular reasoning on the matter leads your responses. Your attempt to turn it back around and go on the offensive is pretty weak as well. A lot of words for a lot of nothing.

    And as for politics, no it is not the "only reasonable explanation." It is for you due to the particularly narrow bounds of your reasoning.It is simply ignorant and inaccurate. A mischaracterization on the nature of interpersonal conflict.

    His post makes plenty of sense, you're just not able to see it. Stop crying "CONTRARIAN!" as a cop out and maybe actually read first.

    I believe in and stand by my opinions, the fact that you don't agree with them doesn't make me a "contrarian." I'm sorry I don't always have the most popular opinion but it is really my opinion, I'm not just saying it to stir the pot, and neither is he.
