But in China apparently that is perfectly legal. Basically you have to file your expenses his way, kiss his a$$ and stay on his good side until you get your money back. Apparently also they see nothing wrong with discriminating against white people. He had a few things happen

A female game journalist who is a personality (realistically: she isn't a top player, but she is decent and tries hard, like 90% of us) was at EVO last year, and broke down in her second match and screamed. If it was a guy, it would have just been a "salty moment"- instead you hear all sorts of "crazy cat lady" comments and other stuff. Honestly, given what happened an

When you are a man and you deal with an ignorant idiot, its just an unfortunate happenstance or you being "overly sensitive". When you are a woman and you deal with an ignorant idiot you have been a victim (TM) of misogyny. As for games... 1.

Especially early on when your Sovereign is around level 6 or so, you can not do anything about it. I personally consider the tactic of kiting to be cheating, as it simply exploits faults in the AI.[/quote] This isn't true, kiting exploits having higher speed not faulty AI design. There is absolutely nothing you could do to prevent

[quote who="Borg999" reply="130" id="3280591"]One thing I would like to address is the notion that increased taxes will force a business to let existing employees go. The math simply doesn't hold up. Simply put, if a company's profit is $250K before a tax increase, and $200K after the tax increase, all other factors held constant, the business still has sufficient funds to meet the payroll for it's current employees.[/quote] Employee salary and benefits are not

Age of Wonders is nice, I agree, but Homm3 contains some really very strange concepts, basically the fact that you spend all the game pampering your killer stack hero with experience while heavily using save/load - because frankly, once you lose it, it's game over.
