You won't reply because you literally have no argument to stand on aside from its "immoral" news flash dickhead, everything you've said has been nothing but opinion.

  • analogies and hyperboles are two different things. which most of you "moral" white knights seem to not know. Sexual assault and a video game are not comparable in the slightest. Nor is home invasion.

    The acts of -blam!- and playing video games are by no means comparable. The environments and settings in which these scenarios take place are indeed comparable, warranting an [i]analogy[/i]. Here we have an analogy, defined as: "a comparison between two things, typically on the basis of their structure and for the purpose of explanation or clarification". Hyperboles are not analogies; that is correct. But this is an analogy.

  • Not even remotely. his situation could be avoided by his parents simply not buying him a $400 baby sitter for Christmas. Use parental controls and none of this would have happened. ignorance is not an excuse.

    You can try and deflect my well structured points with all the irrelevancies you'd like, kid. It's still an analogy, by definition of an analogy.

  • Btw the two situations you are comparing aren't comparable "on basis of their structure" so by definition it's not an analogy. lol the kid will NOT be getting anything from bungie and I for one am glad. I'll enjoy my 3 characters and not let people I don't know use my account :)

    Sexual assault of a minor: Adult takes advantage of unsuspecting and naive child. What happened here: Adult took advantage of unsuspecting and naive child. They are comparable on the basis of structure. [spoiler]really, maybe you're just thinking too hard about this analogy thing?? You seem to be having a rough time.[/spoiler]

That's really the only choice you're leaving me with. That doesn't change the basis on which the two scenarios can be compared lol..

  • They're not comparable lol copy and paste all you want. it doesn't change that you're wrong. here's hoping you or someone close to you can experience it do you can see how it changes someone. unlike having a character deleted, which is easy to get over.

    Thank you for hoping that someone close to me is a victim of sexual assault, really paints the picture of who I'm talking to lol, for myself and everyone perusing this thread. You're correct in that the emotional burden of being victimized by these aren't similar, but the initial argument was whether or not this is a form of victim shaming, in which they are still comparable on the basis of structure. That is where the comparison is, not in the emotional toll of either. [spoiler]you're killin it with these analogies tonight, buddy lol[/spoiler]

    You vaguely said that one of either of the two things should happen to someone close to me, nice try. No form of rebuttal to any of the valid points I've posted? That's because you have none; you've taken your own rug out from underneath you. [spoiler]sorry, forgot metaphors and analogies aren't your thing[/spoiler]

  • Metaphors and analogies are fine, hyperboles aren't really useful when debating. Like you said I vaguely said one of the two and you automatically assumed sexual assault, why? because it's the worst one out of the two. as in not on the same level and not comparable. :]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]] And none of your points are facts they're all opinion. it's a FACT the kid broke terms of service and should be banned KirmitTheFrog didn't break any ToS.

    Me assuming what you meant doesn't prove anything in your favor, fella. Use empirical logic to support your facts like I do, and you'll have yourself some actual points! Just because you say my facts are opinion doesn't mean it's opinion lol.. Go home troll. You don't even point out any particular points or have any reasoning why they're not actually fact.

    Fact: sexual assault and this particular instance are comparable on the grounds that victim blaming seems to be a popular reaction to them. Period. Not opinion. If you think that's an opinion, then you not only are lacking some serious analytical skills, but you don't know what an "opinion" is and what a "fact" is. Those are likely valid theories, lest your stupidity is a case of voluntary denial, then you're just a bad troll lol You have not shown me what particular points I've made are based in opinion rather than fact, because you cannot; as facts are not based in opinion, therefore: my claims are not opinion. I do not expect you to address this however, as it's apparent that your pompous ego will not allow you to. Not to mention not addressing the fact that you [b]actually did[/b] wish sexual assault upon someone close to me. You, sir, are a piece to pity. [spoiler]see how my claims are based in empirically verified fact?? That's what you're not doing lol[/spoiler]

  • Please show me where I explicitly said I hope someone close to you is sexually assaulted. And no that is not a fact it's an opinion.

  • It's actually zero because you literally keep telling me your opinion. as if it honestly matters. in a week from now when you get into a game with a young kid you'll be an absolute hypothetical -blam!- and mock him for being a squeaker. enjoy your 15 minutes of being a white knight you nerd. I'll keep laughing at the kids tears and everyone else who blames this pathetic display of parenting on a troll.

    Since you refuse to tell me what points of mine specifically are opinion, and refuse to show me how they're opinion, I have no choice but to go through each and every one of my points and show you how they are indeed empirically verified fact. You're wrong. Period. The 14 different people that collectively liked different posts of my arguments on here a total of 37 times over the last 2 days think you're a -blam!-ing moron. I've had 3 friends read things you write, and tell me, "this kid's a tool, post that dumb bitch on Reddit for everyone to laugh at." I'm only still here because your voluntary denial is going to make a really good read for anyone who wants a good laugh once it's transcribed. All you do is bring up something irrelevant to any sort of argument whenever I back you into a corner, and it's hilarious! Your only argument is, "that's just your opinion man"! You obviously don't know the difference between personal opinion and empirically verified fact, and it's very apparent to [b]everyone[/b] who reads this!

  • Everything. EVERYTHING you've said. idk how much clearer everything can be but ever sentence you've somehow managed to construct has come from your opinion. because this whole situation is opinion based. Some people think he's a dick others don't. something he broke ToS some don't. Opinion is everything in this whole situation. the one true fact is the kid gave control of his account to someone online he's never met and paid the consequences. Make all the posts you want but bungie will not give him his gear back. People said he's been given FOAF but it's actually false. people said kirmit was banned or suspended also false. the one true thing is the kids parents didn't care enough to take 5 minutes to learn the system they bought to babysit their kid who struggles to pronounce simple words.
