xxxIndyxxx: we should close the deal with some split up humble bundle keys... too soon??

IAmSinistar: I confess I am not surprised by your response, but still sorry to see it thus. I am also sorry that you think my attempt at elucidation was instead obfuscation, and that I somehow seem incapable of addressing the core issue. I have done so, however at odds it is with your philosophy and your inability to entertain any course of reason that does not parallel your own. You in turn fail to address why me spending $5 on 5 bundles and giving them away is perfectly fine, but spending $5 on one bundle and giving pieces of it away is criminal. Apart, of course, from your argument of "because it says so", which is one that ceases to carry weight after about the age of 3.

If the limits of your argument, and thus your chain of reason, is predicated entirely on "it is stated this way in writing here, therefore it must be so", then there is little I can do to show you my own logic, because by your dicta it will be inescapably in error unless it dovetails entirely with your own. It is this kind of surity that makes debate with the zealot and the literalist equally fruitless.

Lastly, you yourself say that "HB asks" and "GoG thinks", neither of which are indicators of unbreakable rules, but rather take the form of requests. I am free to ignore such requests when they conflict with my ethos, without violating any actual rules. Naturally I do my best to honour reasonable requests, but I do not find the discarding of fallow resources a reasonable request. So your problem with me, and those like me, is reduced to that of either a public scold or a bitter defender, angry because others merely do not make the same choices you do.

I sincerely hope you take the time to read my words and understand them this time, rather than look for some fragment of mis-context that you can then use to simply rehash your same argument against. Because I will not engage you again like this otherwise, for reasoned discourse requires parties to be engaged in good faith on both sides.

amok: Well done swallowing a word book :)

Giltonnam: nabbed VTJ code, thanks :)

Giltonnam: It's called a dictionary :P (just teasing, no clue what you guys are talking about. Just saw that line and thought to tease xD )

amok: No rules are unbreakable, you are again clouding the main issue:

1) HB asks you kindly to not break up a bundle when you buy it. You buy it. You then say "Screw you HB!". This is dishonest and disrespecting. If you do not like HB's way of doing things - don't go into this agreement.

2) GOG asks you to not do these giveaways. You say "Screw you GOG" , and make the giveaway. This is disrespectful. If you cared an iota of GoG's core ideology - you would not do this here.

Do you really not think that you should follow what people are telling you when you are visiting a place? I still can not understand how someone has the cheek to do so. This is, after all, GoG's own forum, one of the few places out there trying to prove that people are not like you - that a customer is decent and can be trusted. I guess GOG got this wrong *sigh*

amok: If you do not like HB's way of doing things - don't go into this agreement

nightrunner227: I think we're the only ones who don't call it a word book. Another example would be German. Wörterbuch.

NameGoo: Humble Bundle used to give out a single Steam key for the entire bundle, right? Why don't they do that anymore? Would save everyone a lot of trouble/arguing.

niniendowarrior: I think it always depends on the publishers they are dealing with.
