dirtyharry50: You give him one more reason to lose faith in humanity. Who appointed you Lord and teacher? Are you perfect? If not, who are you to be instructing anyone else, to be throwing stones as it were?

Come on SimonG, just play nice will you? We don't need mods. This place is nice without them.

SimonG: Yes I am perfect (And I do throw a lot of stones)

Courtesy is no excuse for enabling ignorance and dependency.
Seeing as there is clearly no hope I am going to abandon ship right here. Good luck to you with that attitude.

Hear, hear!
You can probably pick this up for $3-4 during the upcoming summer sale.
I bought it for 3.74 pounds this time last year. Europe's slightly more expensive for Steam as you know, not sure as to what kind of pricing New Zealandland adheres to.
So if you can wait, you can probably get it cheaper within a couple of weeks.

dirtyharry50: Yeah, they did actually by calling the topic pointless and saying it wasn't the brightest question in the world.
Those are not personal insults dude, the question WAS pointless and stupid. Everyone asks pointless stupid questions though, no one is above that and recognizing one as such is not the same as calling someone stupid.

Tired of this pointless over-sensitivity, people looking to be offended. It's all about feeling superior over others really, "I am a better person than you, I wouldn't say that."

SimonG: Which.It.IS.


You answer a pointless question, you raise a pointless person. You show him that he should at least try for a second to look at the first place anybody would have looked, you spare him a lifetime of pointless questions.
The question may have been pointless, but you sort of in a round about way gave him the answer, rendering the pointlessness of this topic moot, so in essence, it did have a point after all. Thankyou and goodnight.

I didn't told him the answer, I showed him the way how he could find the answer. If anything, I educated him. The next time he wants to know when a promo ends, he will check the announcement page. (Well, I hope at least)

carnival73: Or is this thing gonna shoot back up to fifteen whoppers soon?
It'll cost the customer fifteen of these :P

In seriousness, The release page states this about this game.

The Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena, the winner of the Final Round of this year’s Battle of the Games and a brutal adrenaline-pumped Sci-Fi FPS, is available right now on GOG.com with a 60% discount until Friday, July 13 at 8:59 AM EDT.

So when the discount expires on Friday, it will return to the original pricing.

Look I mean no disrespect, but any person is entitled to ask any question they wish. Pointless or not he did the right thing by coming to the forums. Yes you have probably educated him by sending him to the promotions page, but you could have done it in a more "kinder" way than to say it is a pointless question.

And for the record your answer to him was to direct him to the promotions page for an answer, so the point of this post was fulfilled as you gave him direction to the answer. you could have just given him a full answer but instead chose to direct him to find his own answer at said location. Whatever the case, he asked a question, you responded.
Telling people to behave how you want, on the internet?

lol.
