Wow sadly I have to come to Arthur's Defense here.
DamascuS = /FAIL
Reason being is he did not read Arthur's post before replying. I shall quote the post here and put in the part he failed to read in bold as an example.
Most people thinks spyware and breaker is wrong to use. (Especially if they look at the forums and reads SGPs policies about anti SGP behaviour.)
I would add malware to that list too if its used against players and not corps (and TL).
To which DamascuS's reply is as follows and I will put his mistake in bold just to be fair.
Am i to assume that you believe everyone dislikes spyware and the virii breaker just because SGP does? If so, you couldn't be further from the truth, it is based on morality for me, the only reason one would upload and install virii over someone elses virii is out of spite, and pure laziness, i say laziness because the person obviously cannot be bothered to research his own virii and upload and install them, which is easier in my opinion.
As for the virii breaker, while not a completely bad idea it has some serious flaws, such as not taking the hide version into account, or even the version of the virus itself, apart from slowing down the capture time. And again, it is laziness and spite that leads to its use.
Just because it was SGP who released to first 'bad-word' against spyware/virii breakers, do not assume that everyone else is just following suit, and as the quote goes.... 'after all, we are all alike'.
To me nothing is worse than the failure to fully read and comprehend what someone else is typing. That in of itself shows laziness and/or a major dislike towards the individual.
Now you all know I come down hard on Arthur Dent all the time. Honestly most of his posts are BS posts. But I do still take the time to read them as behind the BS there might be something worthwhile. So don't think I am taking anyones side in this conversation alright ;)
