Wow, I cannot fathom your stupidity. You didn't even bother to read the second half of my post, did you? Apparently, from what you posted, you didn't, because you would have realized that your argument is not valid and you don't have a leg to stand on. Who cares if a majority believes something? As long as it is not based on FACT, it is NOT TRUE. No, there is no such thing as "sort of true", it's either true or it is false.
As for your point with religions, it doesn't matter whether what they believe in is true or false because they have the right to believe it. However, if something is proved false, but they continue to think it is true, it does not affect the true, fact-backed explanation behind it. If you want to believe that it is Gearbox's fault, fine, believe it, but it doesn't change the matter that the proof which you choose ignore clearly states that Microsoft, not Gearbox, is responsible.
jcap: Seriously, what's your point? As far as I've seen, all you've done so far on these forums is insult others and act as if you were some sort of forum demigod (EDIT: no pun intended there, demigod) on The Maw when in truth you've just shown up now. The only thing I've found is a cryptic message from another thread linking to this one, and only a tiny blurb about how it's microsoft's fault. To be honestl, I've seen you do far more insulting and member-bashing than I've seen of clearly stating your opinion, arguments, and facts.
I see where Dalmedya is coming from, he's using an Orwellian background for his argument, similar to that in his classic work 1984: if everyone believes truth to be a lie, it becomes a lie, especially if the truth is that heavily repressed. In fact, yes, 2+2 can make 5. Or 10.
And please, enough with the KW stuff. It used to be tolerable, but certain posts are coming out as just plain snobby. And trust me, by doing so, you're not helping your argument any more than I would by saying "I'm a senior member of this forum, ergo, my opinion goes."

As for the thread itself: As mentioned before, nobody is willing to take the responsiblity of a defunct, not so popular, and soon-to-be-replaced game.
