EULA has changed!! IMPORTANT

[pablovi]

Not quite the US foreign Policy. First of all they create the criminal then create the crime they might go on to perpetrate.

Not always, wasn't the war on iraq a preemptive(sp?) strike????? Let's bomb the hell out of them because they might have WMD!!!

They're not going to start charging us to use something we've already bought.

If anything, they're most likely to introduce some kind of snazzy new thing that will require a subscription. And if you don't want it then you don't pay for it.

There's really nothing to worry about here, Valve would be committing commercial suicide if they started doing stupid things. And they aren't stupid - they can afford to play by the rules and still make more money than any of their competition.

Jesus you people are clueless.

Well hey, let's lock you up now just so that you don't rape or murder anyone in the future. After all, we have no idea what you will do in the future.

That cuts both ways, though. Let us control your system remotely, because we have no idea what you'll do with it on your own.

Yes, its all standard, and they know we arent stupid.. if they tried to pull a fast one on us, people would notice, and they wouldnt sell things.
They already learnt their lesson with the delay shenanigans

Probably worth to rehash my old post...

There is a certain trend among forum goers to raise whatever
Valve says to a Biblical (or Koranic, if you will) truth. In a weird
sort of after-hype of the "Best Game Ever (tm)", criticism of
Valve, Valve's software or Valve's games becomes a slight to
Valve itself; a slight to Valve itself becomes a personal insult
to the reader. Rational discussion is then replaced by emotional
statements which are used to discredit the original issue, or the
original poster.

The first oh... ten posts show symptoms of cognitive dissonance
(Google for that, fellas). If Microsoft would change their online
gaming EULAs this way, would you react in the same way?

If anyone would require me to constantly verify files and activate a FPS online, tell me that they can further charge me more money and then tell me i can't sell my copy if i want to get rid of it...then the answer is yes.

 

[Soldcar4gasmony]

Thats funny, there should be though. Seeing as its all microsoft care about

Yeah, the big company shouldn't try to make money but care about your feelings instead...lol
Don't like it, don't use it. I don't like what valve is doing, i won't be using valve anymore.

AHHHHHHH!!!! The sky is falling!!!!! The sky is falling!!!!!!!
NovaLogic had the same stuff on their boards, when people read the EULA for Joint OPs.
