if they have, what the fuck have they been doing

what level are you?

every 10 levels = 1 level from vanilla D1

I was 26 when I first did VoG

The Lost Sector next to the Thieves' Landing spawn is the best thing in the entire series.

Reminds me of those easter egg rooms from Halo

This DLC feels like a little more classic Bungie to me.

The Godfather 3 would have been a lot better with Wynona Ryder as originally planned.
i still haven't deigned to watch it yet

is it so bad, or should i just go on my merry way

It's still a great film. It feels very Godfather-esque, there are just a few things that put it a below 1 and 2, IMO. If Part 1 and 2 were 10's and 9's respectively, 3 is a 7 or an 8. Not bad, but not nearly as good. Once you learn that Coppola originally wanted to name the movie "The Death of Michael Corleone" instead of "Part 3," implying this was a necessary sequel to Part 2 and the third act of a 3-part story, you can begin to forgive some of the weirder creative decisions they made. I never skip watching it when I rewatch the first these movies.

Coppola's daughter in the role of Mary Corleone is often brought up as one of the worst aspects of the film but for whatever reason I've been able to look past it more with every rewatch. Andy Garcia's character more than makes up for her performance and writing.

Pretty fucked up. Huge Human Rights violation to make any group of people repeat the Communist Party songs ad nauseum.
At this point I don't think the Chinese give a dam about human rights violation.

what the fuck
the fight itself is also interesting for several reasons, because the abyss is such a weirdly perfect location to have the fight—it removes all depth perception, making it so the kings look farther away than they really are (which i always thought was an interesting effect) and allows both parties to have free movement, since there's literally nothing to keep your eye on but the boss itself

having more kings spawn the longer you take to defeat them is also an interesting mechanic

i'm honestly struggling to think of what not to like about it, really, unless you just don't like tougher bosses

even the music, which tends to range from bad-to-mediocre in this game, was one of the better themes

no

ive just never once seen you use an exclamation mark before

they're fun! i tend to favor the most conventionally difficult bosses because fighting them is super intense and it feels orgasmic when you finally take them out

also they have a cool design

I like how the biggest fucking bully on this website is trying to call harrasment on Jono for a mundane stretch of an "insult" that wouldn't even get someone warned in Club Penguin.

What Challenger does has literally no bearing on whether this is harassment or not. It's completely irrelevant. I can murder 10 people and still call Eric Harris a murderer, because he is, regardless of what I am.

It's literally the worst definition of harassment.

It's a perfectly good definition. Canada has been using it for years in courts of law.

Quote
No, it's not. First of all, Jono did not repeat his message repetetally.

Repeatedly*

Quote
If we take what Jono said as true, Jono only stated that "God is not a woman" and he did it only once. It's him voicing his perception of God, be it for joke or not, be it truth or not. There is nothing harassing about it.

He went out of his way to message the person after the fact. I'd say that's the second attempt.

Quote
Second, what Jono wrote has a useful purpose, since Jono at the very least acknowledged musician that opponent has as the name, as well as the song.


Acknowledging an artist is not a useful purpose (or a regular purpose, I don't think you know what the word means), it's the method he chose to annoy the person. The purpose was to annoy, and he did that by acknowedging the artist.

Quote
Third, if you are already picking your nickname as someone's musician name, you are automatically give people reason to react in positive or negative way.

This is what we call "victim blaming." Don't do it.

Quote
1. "God is not a woman" is also aknowledging song, so it wasn't only intended to annoy.

You can acknowledge a song with an intention to annoy. They're not mutually exclusive, and even then, the primary purpose was still to annoy the player.

Quote
2. Well, plot twist: because it's not a harassment.. And it's not my definition, it's USA law.

Yeah, because American law is supremely just and absolutely flawless.

Canada is just America, but better in everyway, and this is no exception.

Also you're not American so I don't know why you resort to that definition.


Quote
Of course, Microsoft or Bungie can define their definition of harassment, after all it's their game, but my point is that no way I would treat that as harassment, because it creates an example, a standart upon which you can ban anyone who literally just references other player name or says that God is not a woman, or not a man, or w/e.

I don't care what you would treat as harassment. You cannot ban anyone who says "god is not a woman" because context is important. If I'm having a philosophical conversation with a friend about the gender of God, I'm not going to get banned if I message him, "I conclude that God isn't a woman." However, the intention of Jono's message to Ariana Grande was to incicte some kind of negative reaction, therefore, it is harassment. End of story.

Quote
And that's why your definition of harassment is literally the worst, because anything under it can be interpreted as a harassment,

...what? How does "something that is REASONABLY ought to be known" = "anything could be harassment."

It's reasonable that Jono would know his message was going to illicit some kind of response (it was literally his intention), therefore it is harassment. This is where a thing called rule of law and context come into play.

Quote
because even my response can be taken as a provocation, an attempt to gain a moral ground over you and by your definition you can ban people just because they say something unwanted to you, which is ridiculous.

It could be taken as provocation, sure, but it is clearly not unwanted because I keep responding to you and consenting to the argument. You can only be banned for saying unwanted things to people that they obviously do not want to hear. Randomly saying something I disagree with isn't going to get you banned. Going out of your way to say something I do not want to hear when you know I don't want to hear it is harassment, and should get you banned.

then again, it just hit me that you guys are probably just doing this to fuck with jono, because he's fun to fuck with

have at it then i guess, even though that might qualify as harassment in and of itself

it does qualify as harassment imo, but that doesn't necessarily mean it should be punished

MS likely uses the legal definition of harassment in their own guidelines, which say nothing about harassment needing multiple attempts or anything like that

and even then, the definition i posted is still what i consider to be the best one

If I had a username of something popular and you sent me a reference to it in a PM, I wouldn't feel harassed.

Like if I was called Master Chief and you sent me "cod is better than Halo", I would just ignore you unless I was like 12 - in which case I would report you because such a wrong statement would trigger me.

It doesn't matter if you feel harassed or not. We're not arguing whether or not the user was justified in being harassed (even though under most legal definitions, they were). We're arguing whether the comment constituted a harassment charge under the legal definition. Which it did.

It's not a harassment.

It is harassment. I already stated the best legal definition of harassment: anything that is known or reasonably ought to be known to be unwanted. Jono's comment fits this bill.

Quote
"Harassment, under the laws of the United States, is defined as any repeated or continuing un-consented contact that serves no useful purpose beyond creating alarm, annoyance, or emotional distress."

Even if you subscribe to this definition, Jono's intent was to annoy the other player. So yes, it's harassment.

Quote
If we take what Jono said as true, Jono only stated that "God is not a woman" and he did it only once. It's him voicing his perception of God, be it for joke or not, be it truth or not. There is nothing harassing about it.

1. "God is not a woman" is a comment intended to annoy.
2. Number of harassment attempts has no bearing on whether something is harassment, by your own definition.

Quote
If you take Jono's statement as a harassment, then you can take your and chally's comedic responses or genuine arguments to Deci as a harassment too as well as this response.

Chally does harass Deci. It's also completely irrelevant to this conversation.

This response is not harassment, because it is reasonably thought to be consented to by your own initiation of the conversation, and its sole intention is not to annoy, create alarm or emotional distress.

Try again. You're not very good at this.

I'm not offended by anything. It's just funny to me how Jono doesn't see how his unwanted and hostile message is harassment and you're white knighting for him. He's a big big boy he can reply by himself.
I'm arguing against the fact your standard of harassment is so pathetically low.

there is no standard of harassment. its harassment, by definition. "anything that is know or reasonably ought to be known to be unwanted" is harassment. end of story.
