I personally find it rather silly when someone expect other legits to agree with a particular viewpoint just because they are legit.
Example: "The author of this thread is attempting to gather the legits for our common purpose."
There is no common purpose among people who play legitimately. I have seen purposes range from "Just have fun" to "If all of us go out to public Bnet, we can make cheaters see the light!"
And that is not the point whatsoever. Other communities exist. Good for them. This community, however, may not agree with those other communities on all points. This is what you are seeing in this thread: we differ in how we go about doing things.
Re-read my posts. I never objected to what Antiga was doing (i.e. attempting to establish a thriving D1 community), but how he was going about it.
I find it rather odd that Antiga never responded to anyone's objections. If he wants members of this community to pal around with him, wouldn't it behoove him to find out what we're all about so that he can advertise in a manner that would actually appeal to us? Telling me that he intends to scan me at the border sends me into hysterics. It makes me think he's one of those "pubbie legits" like Fetus that thinks restoring from backup after an item is stolen will cause the thief to be in possession of "the duplicate item" when, in fact, by restoring Fetus used his operating system to duplicate the item. (The story is rather amusing, actually. Fetus lent an item to a friend, who later refused to return the item. Fetus thought that restoring from backup would cause the friend to possess "the dupe," thereby returning the "legit copy" to its proper owner.)

Lem, I'd love for the nay say's in this thread to stop in. Checking the log's not one of you to my knowledge has stopped in. Come say Hi. I can argue here all day. It does me no good. (I will alway's be flamed)
