boldee: if they do they have played zero mins, obviously a troll/spammer.

darktjm: Not that I don't agree with your point, but I have 0 minutes on all of my games, and always will (even if gog ever gets off its ass and provides a Linux galaxy, my games do not get network access, ever).
Don't forget to run your games with something like "firejail --net=none" if you're sp concerned about this.

(Note: This will break network multiplayer, of course.)
If I get banned for life and come back with an illegal account, will I be allowed to stay here too? :P

Someone should tell rt and Kleetus and Tauto and Infinite9 that the door is open for them.

AB2012: Same here. Not defending the guy in question (or any other such reviews) but not everyone uses Galaxy (so not everyone's playtime is tracked) and a review from an account that doesn't own the GOG version of an old game doesn't mean they don't own it on disc. "Playtime tracked" by itself is as useless here as on Steam if someone's playing 100% offline.
there was this guy and he wrote about GZDoom - i wanted to ask him about it but he edited his post so my reply got edited as well! something's wrong with the forum yes? so what's the big difference between zdoom final version and gzdoom?

Never heard of firejail. I suppose I should look into it. It probably does the same thing I do, but without requiring me to maintain it. I set up a network namespace containing only looopback at system startup, and use a suid stripped down iproute2 that just switches to that namespace and executes its arguments. My game wrapper script and my wine wrapper script both use this, and I only allow winetricks to bypass it (and, because I am not as paranoid as I should be, I also allow Zachtronics games to occasionally connect, so I can see how my solutions fare against the rest of the world). Of course apps can still bypass it by executing the web browser while I already have one up (not a significant enough hole for me to patch it, yet).

edit: Also, I cheat too much to want to play network multi-player (given that even loading a prior save is technically cheating, unless you're doing it to bypass game bugs). And the sort of games I might want to play multi-player usually have PBEM modes.

I've never considered this to be cheating.

If anything, if a game actively prevents the player from doing this, I consider it to be a black mark on the game, and I am significantly less likely to want to play it.

wrong_answer: oh.. i thought you guys wanted to report me.. seems i'm not that important, not that "notorious" yet... :'(
I heard from a pretty reliable source that you are from kosmak. Is that true, and if not, why not?

Wolfehunter: All I can say is and I'm going to keep this clean. stop feeding the trolls.

For me I believe in freedom of expression so if someone doesn't like something they should say it. If others don't like that point of view then discuss as best as someone can in a civilized manner. Or ignore it all together.

I hate when one group tries to censor another groups ideals because it doesn't fit there agenda.
gOg is a private company, this is their private forums. freedom of expression does not apply, but only gOg's own rules. it is the same as a stranger coming into your living room and shouting - your mother is a ugly whore and you all should go kill yourself - then claiming "freedom of expression"

Where in my comments did I say anything about gog what they can and cannot do? As Poppyappletree stated something early similar to what your implying I've agreed with him and your statement. If gog wants to block lock or remove these post that's fine by me. If they want to let it go on that is also fine by me. I've never said anything about gog. I'm talking about people in general.

Some people with a serious chip on ones shoulders...

Holy crap, you're alive. Did you get a temp ban or something?

I've never understood why some people read "PoppyAppletree" and assume a male speaker.

Well I didn't know.. so I gambled and lost on a 50/50 chance. But on the net anyone can be anything. Also I try not to get involved much with these politically correct discussions... Sorry.
