Nice idea, but why would pirates and other criminals form a power? Everybody would want to be the pirate king and everybody would rob/pirate/kill everybody else - or at least try doing it.

The moment the organization becomes stable enough to offer sanctuary, banking, insurance etc to it's members it would simply become a normal state.

BTW: There is already one power that has the structure and organization of the mafia - an organization similar to the old roman empire. Just saying… ;)

Because criminals have families too and they have to provide for them within the context of a criminal organization. That's why even in RL the more organized (criminal) hacker groups have a payroll, benefits and an HR to administer them. Same structure, different end goals.

I was considering editing that to - Forum Moderators, seeing as my infringements have been all spent and Ive room for more. However self preservation (read cowardice) has forced me to reconsider. Besides I dont think youve beat me up here yet so thats a tad unfair on you.

Ive been away for 5mnths due to the AMD Supercruisegate affair, I am surprised this thread still has legs.

Thread 4.....

I think what fuels this more than anything now is;

Are you really sure you want to know?
Because once you know, there is no going back.....
Blue pill and you can leave with your sanity, the Red pill takes you down the rabbit hole....
... wonder how many of these the forum allows ? ....
Seriously, you'll lose your respect for us all once you know.
Honestly, I wouldn't do it if I were you......
Please, don't click any more, we're all friends here - you don't need any dirty little secrets ;)
Okay, you've been warned........
You can chain loads of these ! :D
This thread is alive, because we all know FD ignore it - and we all need ways of wasting time :eek:
Told you not to look, that we're just killing time.
Why are you still clicking these?
Persistent aren't you!
Have you been checked for OCD, there is no reason to be this far in.
You can really do a lot of these !!!
Congratulations, you made it to the end. 15 Spoiler clicks. Are you proud of yourself, or ashamed you just had to click them all?

The worst people, ever, are cable TV companies (all of you... looking at YOU comcast) and advertisers.

Seriously, I pay money to watch your commercials? Stupid crap that they try to make "funny" about their products that im not going to buy? When was the last time you made a purchase because of a commercial?

Oh, look, a commercial for Tide detergent. Gee, isnt everyone happy, and oh, lord that was hilarious. Uh oh, kid 1 spilled some grape drink on his shirt! Mom 1 gives him that look of "oh you are in trouble now, but at the same time, its all good because I have TIDE!"

That means next time I go to the grocery store, ill get... yep... whatever box I pick up first.

And YOU, COMCAST. I hope you rot in the depths of HADES. I pay your obscene bill every month, and what do I get for it? Terrible, TERRIBLE customer service, a garbage lineup, and what little I DO watch is littered with ads like the one above! So you get my money, AND their money, yet still try to charge me "fees" when I have to have a rep from your company come fix my service when it stops working every two weeks.

Yes. Rot. In. Hell. Comcast.

Edit:

"Shut up, Leto!", you say. "Why not cancel the cable service?", you ask?

Well, because god forbid the wife cannot watch the endless chain of reality TV trashcoms that spew forth from the anus of society.

2nd Edit:

Why is it OK for her to watch "Wife Swap" on TV, but when I suggest that, I am the bad guy?

The two biggest lies the American population were told by companies in the 1970's-

1. ATM's save the banks so much money that there will NEVER be fees attached to them.
2. Cable television would be commercial free, completely supported by subscriptions.

But is their thread so smooth, polished, and circular?

Do they have their own library and archives of dev posts that are regularly and politely given to so many so often?

I THINK NOT!
