Time4Tea: I'm going to report your posts to the moderators. You keep repeatedly spamming the same very long post over and over, in an obvious attempt to disrupt the thread, whilst ignoring all counterpoints that have been made. That is not reasonable behavior.
Edit: I removed the old version of the list which I posted before.
Active contributions to this thread are spam? The lists show the state of the boycott. I re-posted the lists because of new informations about one boycotter and after I got personally attacked by Longcat again. The lists are on-topic and they aren't spam. You dislike them because they disagree with your strange definition of a boycott. I think they are essential for people reading this thread. The action of reporting me shows that you also just want to attack me on a personal level.
For Longcat I am the idiotic troll. For you I am the spamming troll.
Time4Tea: If you don't like it, don't agree with it, that's fine. Make your point and then leave.
I haven't ignored them. I disagree with them. I will answer the points you made weeks ago:
Time4Tea: About: 'sock puppet accounts being on the list' That's not how it works. Either you are on the list or not. With this logic you can start a petition. When you don't have enough signatures you just fill in the rest because there is a theoretical group who could have signed the petition.
Time4Tea: Re: deleted accounts being on the list. With this kind of thinking you are also OK with having dead people staying as registered voters. That dead Republican/Democrat there could have voted Red/Blue so let's count his vote. I mean... LOLWUT.
Time4Tea: Re: the list of signees who appear to have purchased some games: If I boycott McDonalds then I won't go and order a Big Mac. Let's say I am in a labor union and they organized a strike. With your logic I can work just 1 instead of 10 hours per day during the strike. In that case I would be a fink.
Either you are boycotting or not.
And the list of boycotters is questionable. There is still one user in the boycotters list who wanted to be removed and added to the "sympathetic" list. Nothing happened in the past 1.5 years. That pretty much shows that there is no interest in keeping the list up to date and reliable. Integrity is completely absent here.
Just think about you are working for GOG and you see this thread. What would you think? Can you imagine it? I see a total mess. Chaos. After reading parts of this thread I don't know what you guys want.
User A wants his own goals A. User B wants his own goals B. etc. Then are users where their goals are contradicting. Other people here are boycotting, but they are not joining this boycott. They are just attacking other users. There are discussions about the boycott. What is a boycott or not? Why should GOG be boycotted or not? The initial text of this thread about the boycott plays a little role here. It seems to me that most people are here just because of the word "boycott" in the title. It's clickbait.
It is confusing.
On top of this you constantly see how people who disgree with statements of boycotters are getting attacked on a personal level.
Time4Tea: You do not have the right to continuously post the same points over and over, whilst ignoring reasonable counterpoints that others are making. Doing that is obviously trolling/spamming - it will not be tolerated and I will report such behavior to the forum admins.
My counterpoints were also ignored and the same things were posted over and over again. This wasn't trolling/spamming because it supports the boycott. Of course...
Do you actually know what this means? Users who participating in this boycott or say they are boycotting GOG are also active in other threads and constantly posting how much GOG sucks over and over again. News threads are hijacked, threads where people are just thanking GOG for the great games and service are hijacked, etc. Peaceful threads were disrupted by boycotters or "boycotters" on a regular basis here. This thread is spawning a toxic negativity throughout the forum.
Time4Tea: If you don't like the boycott, that's fine - you don't have to take part. But you do not have a right to disrupt it for others."
You are protesting against censorship, but you actually want to censor people who disagree with you. People who disagree with this thread are "shameless" trolls or "GOG fanboys", isn't it?
Time4Tea: rjbuffchix was on the boycott list for a long time and only left it fairly recently. They are more than welcome to post in this thread.
rjbuffchix? I can't link it because the thread is broken. Go back to post 5746 and you see WHO resurrected this thread. The linked thread already gives it away. This is really troublesome because it shows that you haven't actually read what I wrote. I stated already the reason.
You also want to attack me on a personal level. That is going on here.
