Rage quit cause he can't enter a contest?

More whining here about the same thing:

Can they honestly expect Turbine to investigate sweepstakes laws for every country?  I guess they could use the money for update 16 to pay some lawyers instead of making new content.

We, as an international community, suck.

"Wanna buy a t-shirt?  $10."  NOPE!!  There's all kinds of international tariffs and bullshit.

"Congratulations, valued customer!  You win the prize!!"  NOPE!!  Your government (or ours) will allow no such shenanigans.  Why?  Cause somehow, somewhere, someone is profiting... and it's not us (governments).

It sucks.  But, rage quit is not the answer.  Global anarchic tax evasion might be, though.

Vordax probably just broke his NDA too.

Still don't understand why us Aussies can't enter these, I mean, we aren't even taxed on lottery winnings (or casino winnings for that matter)
  

Opinions are like paraplegic circus penguins, no-one likes it when you shove one down their throat.

I think it has something to do with Thunderdome.

Who run Bartertown?  Cheesy

Oh, and we are very young in the ways of drama, if you have some time check out this thread on the Diablo III forums.

http://us.battle.net/d3/en/forum/topic/4887759373?page=1

Short story, people who were invited into the D3 closed beta got a 'sigil' for being selected, this sigil is basically a cosmetic thing to put onto you town portal flag (as far as I can tell) has as much of an effect on the game as say, giving select people in DDO a special colour for their airship or something.

So much whining over it though.

I fucking LOVE multi-country legal complaint threats.

That shit is money for humor value.

Go ahead. Try.

The exchange rate crap is bullshit, though.
