To the author, it is a minority who have taken exception to the content of the article in question..... so the majority need NOT essay their thoughts in multiple threads. Our thoughts are pretty appratent based on earlier replies in the threads that directly discussed the article.<br /> <br /> Maturity has become a matter of opinion..... lets leave it at that.<br /> text/html 2007-11-19T03:17:34-05:00 Hans Moleman http://www.hardwareanalysis.com/content/topic/69590/?o=20#519626 SBD said: <div class="quote">Well everyone fcks up, he most likely didn't think it all through...</div><br /> <br /> He thought it through fully. At no point did he admit that anything he said or did was wrong. He considered many of use dumb and ignorant because we didn't agree with the methods he used and his purpose in starting that thread. You say we were flaming him. Perhaps some were, but I was told that I was getting dumber by the minute. We were also accused of being ignorant teenagers that need to learn life's lessons before arguing with him (that post was later deleted when the thread was locked). <br /> <br /> The reason people were angry at Sander wasn't simply the pirating issue, it was his dishonesty and lack of professionalism. He violated his own rules, he lied to the people here at HWA, and he promoted illegal activity. I never attacked him on the act of piracy itself because I felt enough people had done that already. <br /> <br /> I would not flame or attack you. You have been completely honest and straightforward in this thread. Sure you've admitted to breaking the law and all, but I'm not going to argue with you over that because I know it won't make a difference. It was the lies and hypocrisy that made Sander a target for everyone. The fact that he insulted and flamed people in that thread didn't help him either. text/html 2007-11-19T01:49:54-05:00 john albrich http://www.hardwareanalysis.com/content/topic/69590/?o=20#519616 G.

In addition, if an item is on sale or clearance, or a returned item, etc. you can also suggest a reduced price. Of course, for a &quot;new release&quot; product it is <i>extremely</i> unlikely you'll get one. <br /> <br /> It doesn't always work, but it never hurts to ask for or suggest a lower price.<br /> text/html 2007-11-19T00:07:57-05:00 SBD http://www.hardwareanalysis.com/content/topic/69590/?o=20#519596 Well everyone fcks up, he most likely didn't think it all through... text/html 2007-11-18T23:54:41-05:00 Al-CID http://www.hardwareanalysis.com/content/topic/69590/?o=20#519591 SBD said: <div class="quote">The Wii has 81 nintendo games from the nes snes and n64 i say thats a few if you consider the nes had over 1,000 games.
