Veteran Reward changes - Big slap in the face for long time vets?

[Miste]

you are absolutely right! i am not here to take your freedoms away like other people

lol you are making this into a way bigger deal than it is...if my single post on an online gaming forum about my opinion "takes your freedoms away" I don't know what to tell you bro. I am kind of surprised about this power I suddenly have. To just post words and take away other's rights. My bad I didn't know I had such a power.

Pretty sure I was just advocating to be understanding to each other and understand that people choose to spend their money many different ways so don't choose to be rude and criticize a total stranger about how they spend their money. It'd be like if you went into a store IRL to buy...I dont know, say this game! FFXIV! and some other customer walks up to you like "you're going to buy THAT?" then starts laughing hysterically and claiming how ridiculous you are for wasting your money on it.

well i did quote you word for word which you said *you have no right* which you are wrong.

i mean you are right you don't have that power, which is why i stated you were wrong.

i am not arguing if something is rude or insensitive just that i have that right.

Again, they are just words, so yes you are making a huge deal out of nothing lol

People say "you have no right" all the time when dealing with situations where people are crossing the line into doing things that are very rude albeit not against the law. So in the end it is a figure of speech and just my opinion.

and you are completely allowed to tell everyone your opinion, but your opinion is factually wrong.

Making a huge deal over nothing.

Do you know what "figure of speech" means and the fact I just said "it is just my opinion"?

Also my opinion cannot be factually wrong because an opinion is not fact.

I personally feel and hold the opinion that you have no right to tell a stranger that how they spend their money is wrong whether or not you have that right legally or not.

Deal with it.

Deal with it.[/B]

you are allowed to hold that opinion i never said don't, i just said just because you do doesn't mean we don't.

you seem to be turning this into some huge thing when i am literally only saying the same thing over and over again not arguing any other point.

But you are right in that you can tell someone what to do or what to say. That person, and everyone else that hears you, is also free to not listen or say that you're being rude. Just because you're free to say what you want does not mean you're free from the consequences of saying what you want.

you are 100% correct once again as i have said every post i am simply stating i have that right no matter what people think.

No, the reason this falls on you is because this is a video game forum, but you are turning it into some kind of political crusade about defending what rights you have just because someone pointed out we shouldn't be being rude to people for what they choose to spend their personal money on in this game.

No one in here cares what rights you have or what country you live in or that you own a gun. You didn't question my post about the game, you turned it into a "I have this right so don't try to take away my freedoms" thing all over someone's opinion that we should be nicer to each other.

I mean way to pick your battles.

Actually you don't have the right to say whatever you want on a private website. You can only say what the owners of the website allow you to say. So SE could censor any of your statements if they decided to and you have no recourse. Only public speech in regards to the government is protected but other public and private speech is not.

well i did quote you word for word which you said *you have no right* which you are wrong.

You also used the first amendment as the basis for your statement which is factually incorrect. The first amendment states the government can't stop you from saying something it doesn't like, it says nothing about what an individual is or is not allowed to do. The Bill of Rights is there to limit the government, its not there to limit or grant powers to the people.

But you are right in that you can tell someone what to do or what to say. That person, and everyone else that hears you, is also free to not listen or say that you're being rude. Just because you're free to say what you want does not mean you're free from the consequences of saying what you want.
