Comments on: David Pierce Files virtual Class Action Suit Against AVGs Chad Thomas http://alphavilleherald.com/2004/07/david_pierce_fi.html Always Fairly Unbalanced Tue, 04 Oct 2016 13:18:56 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.1 By: Urizenus http://alphavilleherald.com/2004/07/david_pierce_fi.html/comment-page-1#comment-49978 Urizenus Sat, 31 Jul 2004 00:02:43 +0000 http://localhost/wp_2/?p=2759#comment-49978 I'm also sorry to hear that, Charlize, it really does put things in perspective. In David's defense, though, I don't think he has lost perspective. He isn't filing a lawsuit, he's filing a virtual lawsuit in a virtual court. It seems like the obvious next move in the AVG game. Of course, yes it's a game and its trivial compared to life and death in r/l, but in the end we come back to gaming after tragedies in our lives, which tell me that games aren't the most important things (obviously) and we need to step away from them when we are struggling with weightier issues, but we do come back to them, which suggests that gaming has a kind of importance to us as humans, even if they are not the most important thing.

Well whatever I've spent way too much time in this game arguing with people I'll never even meet. So go ahead, file your lawsuit, keep on doing whatever makes you happy. I've just come to a point where I don't really see the point of all this anymore. That could be partly due to my friend being killed in a car accident. It makes everything else just look stupid and unimportant. So sorry if I offended you, I just have a new perspective and I'm not in the best of moods. So you choose to enjoy it by filing a “lawsuit”?

I am unhappy to hear that Mr Pierce did not call for Mr-President to resign. I mean let's give a case...A canidate runs for president...some put in 50,000 votes, he wins, the rigger is exposed, fired, and in jail. So should the current adminstration get to stay?> Apparently Mr Pierce thinks so. But I can't blame him, since he is "buddy buddy" with Mr-President and always defends him. Bottom line, AVG needs a new election. I would have to commend Ashley for all she has endured throughout this. I am unhappy to hear that Mr Pierce did not call for Mr-President to resign.

I knew something was wrong with the polls the day of the election, and quite frankly I'm tired of the game.. and even if I were to play again I would not go through what I did with the reelection. It is kind of pointless. However, I do think Chad should be fined for what he did.. but I also think that the AVG should give a public apology and money to the citizens, Loxee, as well as myself for the hardship they put us through.. especially since all of the hard work it took me to get those votes and then have them blocked and taken away from me. BUT, 100k in my opinion is not enough.. as most sims these days have a far greater amount.. I also think that not only Chad Thomas be fined, but Jason Sim. That's just my opinion... ALSO, I think the AVG should give money and the apology that I have been waiting for since April. Mr-President is never on, and at 21 years of age I'm SURE he has much better things that he could do than run AVG. I am definately for new power in the AVG, but PLEASE not Hook as he is just like Mr-President (age, never on, involved in the whole AVG posse). Considering the elections were rigged, and also consideringhow many people I had vote who couldn't.. it is pretty clear that the election was won by me, SO with Loxee as my running mate, than since I'm leaving.. that would make her the President of AVG *just a thought*. I'm sure she'd be a lot more fun than Mr-President! Ashley Richardson Ashley's Modeling Agency Hi.. count me in, but since I’m leaving TSO I don’t know how much help I could be to you.
