FAButzke: Your GF is paranoid.
Find you a new one.
Paranoid or not, she's a she and she games. If we start throwing them out over things like paranoia, or an explosive violent temper, who'd we have left?

Perhaps if we all do that, they became all lesbians and we homos? I don't know.
I was kidding by the way.

I really hope she never discovers a hair of another color in one of your shirts (of a cat, for example). Because you're going to need the full CSI staff to convince her that you have not played dirty... ;-)

Threads like this never fail to put a smile on my face... You know why ? Because I'm fairly certain that the reason for mistrust is that "it's too good to be true" ^^.

Dont worry, I already have an expert cleaning team handling hair cleanup from animals before coming home. ,)

Also im amused at the person going omg at me using GoG.com instead of GOG.com, in my day we used to not capitalize the little words XD

For some reason, seems to be often a point of honor to remind those who commit this "error". I did not notice if always the same person or several ones.

Otherwise, be both welcome to this small, friendly community.

How exactly is "Old" a little word? As far as I recall, if the "o" stands for "of", then you don't capitalize it, same is true for "the" and "and", but most other words are capitalized, thus the "correction".
Plus, the site is now GOG.com, so again the 3 letters are all capital, or all non-capital.

menchicutlets: I understand that a company cannot sell something they do not have legal agreement with the parent company to sell, but I have a girlfriend who is tempted by GoG but refuses to buy anything until she sees something that states that the companies on GoG.com have agreed to it. Are there any links to info that shows the different companies agreements with GoG? Spent a couple of hours now and her moaning is driving me insane. :P
In case all the other answers weren't sufficient: yes, we're a legal company. We pay royalties to the rights holders for every single game we sell. Welcome!

No, you pay GOG for the game then GOG pays the royalties for selling the game. I don't think you send money directly to any rights holder.

Well, if you eliminate steps from the money chain, then I guess I can say that criminals pay my rent. :)
