I see people talking about "investing" their time and money into video games, this one in particular.

Now, I looked up the definition of invest according to the Merr-Web dictionary.


1: to commit (money) in order to earn a financial return

What sort of return do these people expect to get?

The ability to spend more time and money? If so you are "investing" in a never ending cycle of debt, with no return in time or money.

Are you "investing" in your entertainment? Again entertainment gives you no return, nothing productive ever came out of entertainment, except the ability to be non-productive.

Enlighten me please on how this is investment and how PGI has squandered your investment.

Unless you have some share in the profit of the company, please revise your wording. You have paid for a service. If you think that service is inadequate, it is simply that you are an unsatisfied customer. Thus, you should take your business elsewhere.

P.S. Russ and Bryan have a lot of legal bills, they need your "investment" dollars. (You didn't think I would go a whole post without a jibe did you?)

Good heavens a No Remorse post I can agree with?

Is the world ending or has he decided to simply start trolling the trolls rather than PGI?
