    On the subject of not being able to play your games anymore if you get banned from the EA forums: apparently this is all a huuuge misunderstanding and completely untrue:http://www.shacknews.com/onearticle.x/55656

    EA really needs to get their moderators under control. How about starting in that department for layoffs?

    Though on the other hand, people need to start putting a bit of doubt into articles they read on Kotaku.

    I'd say this applies to rumors which often turn out to be untrue but all this article was was a link to a post written by an EA community manager, so the source seemed to be credible. Turned out he and kotaku were wrong plus everybody else picking up on this. Still if you can't trust Kotaku, WHO ELSE could you still trust? Hm???

    i didn't say i wanted to party or anything, but it's not as big a deal as you blow it up to be. people lose their jobs, get over it. or don't. i mean i don't know about you, but i never cried over spilt milk. maybe you do.

    Dude, relax

    I do agree with stepp. When such a big a company fires 6% of its staff it IS big deal. News like this make you feel insecure. Sure, someone who worked at EA can easily find a new job (or not) but its still a big headache. Chances the person will need to relocate to a new town or even country are pretty high, and some of those have families. Wives with their own jobs, not to mention kids and school. Relocating is very troublesome and time/money consuming. I DO feel sorry for these people, it's not like they are going to die but stuff like this affect the industry as a whole whether you like it or not.

    Wow Sentura you just outed yourself as a sociopath by comparing other peoples job loss with spilled milk.

    Minos explained why it is a big deal for the persons and why its only logical to feel empathy for them when they work in the same industry as many of us.

    even if i did, what does it matter? it's no use trying to tell you how my perspective looks because all you will do either how is just judge and condemn it. not that i had imagined anything else.

    i understand your empathy, but you and i both know that if it happens to you or someone else, you aren't just going to sit around and do nothing. you'll find a new place. it's not that i don't feel sorry, it's just that there are better things to do about it than to feel sorry. well i am nothing if not pragmatic.

    I'm sure you would've loved it if people said "So? I've got better things to do than care about them or you" when Zeitguyz died.

    Kotaku never confirm anything before throwing it on their website, being first has more priority than being right. A few sites have made stuff up before just to see if they post it (they do) like the 360 name-change.

    would you believe me if i say i had the same views then? there's a reason i barely mentioned it here.

    People read kotaku?

    Nah, that site lost all respect from me when they stated Halo III was one of the most innovative, original and greatest games ever made.

    lol.

    I see Red Alert 3 has been plagued with the DRM virus, another challenge for the pirate hackers... :roll:
