If this person does anything harmful to society, part of the blame is on you. I might not agree with the idea that life should be limited to a certain amount of years, but a long life combined with a criminal record is a problem. -Corvus
If he is dicking around with Nantes he doesn't need a doctor. he needs a TEAM of doctors as well as engineers and programmers
I just want to point out, when you people sit here talking morality and money over saving one two hundred year old career killer, there is about twentyish people sick and dying from a spore disease on Alioth and Marathon. Some of them kids.
*Encrypted as R34P3r* I think you're all missing the point entirely. As quoted by a very insightful individual: "This is a steaming sack of nope." - Hollow Counterfeit is by defined as "a fraudulent imitation of something else; a forgery." Just in case some of you weren't informed enough to understand this. Especially you hard-working, self-employed, medical specialists out there. This offer is utter horse-sh*t and can't be taken into account. Fake money is like using a baseball bat and telling someone that it's the equivalent of ten pixels. Even though it may be worth ten pixels, it's still a bat and does not represent the physical of ten pixels. It is worth approximately zero except to those who take it as such and give it that worth, that value. So if you all feel this "Exxon" is a viable source, despite being relatively new and extremely shady, you're very unintelligent and I pity you. Too long, didn't read? Hey, you guys. I've got fourty-gillion voxels in a vault secretly hid away in my quarters. Someone offer me something to buy and I'll make you rich then print out some more dough to compensate for it and absolutely ruin the intergalactic economy! Not only will I make the galaxy a terrible place to live in because money is no longer worth anything, but I'll also be low-life completely ruining the system and impressing no-one! Seriously? Stop humoring these bastards and get yourselves some hobbies, people. Life or no life. F*ck this non-sense.
Ze Doctor tried to help zem! But Ze Military Types wouldn't let Ze Doctor get anywhere near zem, even after Ze Doctor said he would wear protective gear if needed!
Perhaps you don't understand what we do at Exxon. Maybe instead of making assumptions and claiming immorality in immortality and vehemently labeling Thorne as a killer seeking eternal life you'd realize your intolerance. If the Universe wants to ridicule me, let them. If they want to ridicule my company and claim money illegitimate when they have no background in economics and no understanding of what fiat money is (which is what credits would be in this case) and that pixels are a commodity form of money which posses usable value (oh just you try to prove pixels as counterfeit when their 3D printing qualities are apparent.) You can insult it all, you can assume all you want, but when you accuse and sentence to death someone close to me, then I'll speak up. Tell you what: Whether or not he needs nanites, whether or not he was kept alive by experimental programs or by simple augments, he's still dying and can be saved by technology. That's exactly what I intend to do. As for the unfairness of me depending such a bountiful amount of currency on one man's life, let me tell you something you sick bastards can't understand: I earned that money through hard work, and I'm going to damn well spend it how I please.
*Encrypted as R34P3r* Oh, ho, ho, friend. Now, if you actually took your time in reading what I had to say, you'd have not made such a poorly-structured argument. Your whole hate-filled reply is misdirected. I did not once outright say the man was a "killer seeking eternal life," or anything along those lines. I noted that he may or may not be a heinous individual, not once did I ever give a statement saying that he definitely was. This is because I do not know this man and I hold no relation to those who may know him. However, from my experience I can say, flat out, that not everyone is who they appear to be at first glance and that, especially here on StarNet, we cannot take what politicians and men (or women) such as yourself have to say at face value. A majority of your kind, especially one leading a corporation, should never represent himself in such instances should he disgrace himself as you have blatantly broadcasted here for the galaxy to see. Seeing as how you have managed to embarrass and degrade yourself publicly by insulting an anonymous user within your own thread. I'd take it that your corporation is, just as I thought, amateur and not in fact an experienced corporation at all. With this in mind, a corporation lacking in experience is one that should not have as much wealth as you claim it to have. So, in conclusion, you're either a liar attempting to turn the attention to me in order to present me as the bad guy (because you really would rather no-one find out about your counterfeiting- which I'm almost positive is the case due to the nature of your defensive response) or you really are a gigantic galactic "steaming sack of nope." As a side note, please don't brand me with your hypocrisy. As if I, and a majority of others here, would require a "background in economics" in order to understand that a corporation, which has just recently grown roots, shouldn't have a bottomless abyss of wealth. Don't pretend like you're God. Not everyone here is willing to worship a false deity. Especially one that doesn't even come close to something like Stark. You disappoint me.
"Don't pretend like you're God." Said the spider to the fly. If my emotional responses in caring for a friend discomfort you, then you don't have to listen to my nonsense any longer. If my company reputation to consider factors of operations to ensure sanctity of life through both pragmatic and pathos instead of adhering to a strict set of rules that steamroll over others bothers your delusion that you're right about everything in this post, don't listen to my disappointing rant any longer. If you're so insecure and want attention for being a badass that you want to prod a man clearly in distress for his friend's life and bring in your ironic holier-than-thou argument of "Not everyone here is willing to worship a false deity." thus instating religion into an argument that previously didn't have such influence, be my guest. Does it change anything though? No.
Does any of this really matter, though? Neither of you are going to change each others opinions, so you might as well put down the guns and walk away.
*Encrypted as R34P3r* Again you point the finger and use your wide-ranged vocabulary in order to make yourself the big man. However, I will humor you. I approve of your emotional connection to your friend and need to see him restored to health, in your position I would probably have done the same exact thing, no doubt in my mind. All that reputation bullsh*t and sanctity of life through pragmatic and pathos, rules, and business talk. Get real. I'm not saying anything against your friend. I'm talking about you and your misuse of corporation resources. In your recent reply, you hinted at the idea of credit. Which, I assume, was your way of saying you do not, in fact, have thirty million pixels and had simply planned to credit them for their effort. In which case. If you're going to use up thirty million pixels that you do not have for one man, you'd have to do it for them all. Be realistic. Use what you can. Use your own money, not the money of your business. As long as you don't counterfeit, you're good. If you do use company funds, then use them for everyone who is dying. The outbreak patients, the torture victims, those whose lives have been torn by pain. As for the religious statement, it wasn't intended as such. It was meant to be a metaphor, as in you're pretending to be all powerful and expect people to flock to support you in your time of need. Your friend is dying. Apparently I didn't make that clear enough for you, I apologize mister CEO. Personally, though. Beyond all the bullsh*t and business. Your friend is important to you and you do what you have to do. I support that.
