You know there's a great way to avoid all that kind of bullshit, don't take part, people just don't seem to get that, I have a very specific criteria I follow now whenever taking part in conversations with the public online.
. There must always be an ignore function so I can block people who spam me or try to harass me through PM's
. Mods/Staff must either be extremely relaxed or none existent and allow for all forms of free speech and debate
. Privacy above all else must be respected and protected
. I shouldn't have to enter in real information about myself or potentially sensitive information in order to take part ( falls in line with privacy but there are many sites that claim to privacy and then ask you private information in order to join )
I agree that apps like this are particularly bad but I don't think that it's even about what they claim, it just seems to me like a massive and convenient way for companies to do data farming on every aspect of our lives. Be it intelligence agencies or marketing companies and everybody feeds them every single piece of information they have without a second thought.
What I find more amazing is that it's taken a stupid app like this to finally make people wake up and realise the con social networks are.

Nothing I enjoy more than idiotic a british mainstream political supporter going at people because they're tossers and getting themselves into trouble.
The end of his copy/paste signature is full of win. "never abandon the principle of struggle" what lil ss means is "so long as your butler can do it for you"... I was referring to the both of you morons but okay I'm used to that sort of idiotic arrogance.

Oh I saw this posted on reddit and was in hysterics, I really hope this becomes a thing.

saying it goes against the will of God and put terminally ill patients at risk for coerced death.
Nope. I am all for letting people end their lives anytime they want. Who are YOU to tell ME that I must endure pain for years? Same, the idea that these people want to force people to stay alive just so they can feel good about themselves morally is really selfish and arrogant.

With this kind of attitude towards all of this you guys are getting dangerously getting close to the 'guilty until proven innocent' mentality, I personally do my best to avoid sites that do dodgy shit and also avoid the ones that put silly restrictions on what I can and can't say about them. However, you can't prevent stupid people from pissing away their money on ponzi schemes. You can only really warn them, if you lot go into a scorched earth policy with this kind of thing you'll have a lot of angry newbies posting around and a lot less people will be willing to register here and it will make even me consider staying the fuck out.

We already have a hot asian girl thread that's over 150 pages long that does the job just fine, there's no way she'd be able to top that.

There are other people spamming their shit all over the off topic and political boards as well now, they're either trying to bump their post count or they're just being obnoxious.

Psychopath and a stupid. "Perfect" combination. I feel sorry for both of them especially the man. Why didn't he realize that his girlfriend is a kind of psychopath by coaxing him like that and he shouldn't have killed himself.
Because when you have a girl trying to be that close to you your brain stops working properly if you don't have any experience of being with a manipulative woman, I really feel sorry for the guy, if he had realised sooner she was just playing with him he'd still be alive.

https://robertsspaceindustries.com/comm-link/transmission/14979-Chairmans-Response-To-The-Escapisthttps://www.reddit.com/r/starcitizen/comments/3n6lum/escapist_anonymous_sources_uncoveredSo I've always had a big interest in Star Citizen but since learning to develop games I've been keeping a much closer eye on the industry and scanning around for information on various people. Well it looks like there is a guy called Derek Smart who has had a personal vendetta against Chris Roberts since wing commander that pretty much most in the gaming sphere knows about who has had any interest in space simulators for quite some time. For those who don't know, this guy Derek Smart is pretty much one of those incredibly petty and stalkerish people you will inevitably come across in life who decide just because they don't like you they're going to follow you around and try to cause havoc even if they're totally in the wrong. This guy makes me look like a fucking genius with the sorts of games he's 'released' and the business decisions he's made like Desktop Commander and Line of defense which incidentally has some rather idiotic micro-transactions that makes EA look sane http://lodmmo.com/store/. So recently he decided to renew his vendetta against Chris Roberts who has been showing him up with his games like Wing Commander for years and recently his latest attack has been via proxy using the escapist gaming news website. Now it seems somebody has been doing some digging in the reddit post and has posted up all sorts of information about how the escapist 'sources' that are complaining about Star Citizen are full of shit, regardless of whether you like Star Citizen or not and whether you approve of the direction they're going in you've got to admit, this kind of thing is a fucking joke.

It will definitely cause a chain reaction if the economy properly collapses, what will be the key thing though is whether these so called nationalists are really what they claim. If you remember what happened in Greece the idiotic left party that climbed up the polls were practically boasting about how they would not accept austerity then when they actually got into power because their claims were bullshit. When it comes to making the tough choices for independence and the like politicians very often end up going back on their word immediately, I have yet seen a nationalist with balls enough to take the EU.

Wow, how many more deaths are going to happen before they realise that gun free zones are a fucking stupid idea?
Many. I'm a pretty open minded person, but I really can't understand the obsession people have with gun control, the entire focus is on them, nevermind the fact that I can openly buy military tanks and get explosives from a fucking hardware store with a tiny bit of research and knowledge. Sigh -_-

Nhaaaaammm!!!
Damn, she looks like a dog. It looks like she's after my double cheeseburger and hopefully my desk doesn't break. After that Cheeseburger, would you please tell her to wash her parts and come to my home to taste my sausage...? Pfftt why the hell would you want to have sex with stick figures? She's hardly that fat Though I admit I do have an absolute weakness for big boobs -_- So I wouldn't mind her lol I personally don't understand how you guys can go for girls that have no waist lol I second that, although a skinny one with great boobs is great... But remind you, I have posted that pic exactly because I liked those curves! The problem is the skinny girls with big boobs will usually be fake and unfortunately I think the one you posted might have fake ones too lol.

Let’s show them that we are the 99% and we can beat them. It is that easy. Pretty much lost their credibility with that line, the fact that they didn't mention Bitcoin at all is especially telling, I suspect anti-capitalist authoritarians are using the anonymous brand to try and get people to believe they're doing the 'right' thing, don't believe their bullshit about Anarchy if they aren't willing to look at all options and start ranting about evil capitalists.
