If you liked this, go watch FreddieW's videos for "Jedi A*****s" on his channel, as those vids were the first thing I thought of after the first 20 seconds of this video.

Slaughtering people for not being polite, check.
Red saber, check.

NOT Jedi. Sith Lord.

Just sayin'.

Oh, and upvote for having a Stormtrooper available.

I had a friend wait out for me...than I walked up to the line and grabbed the ticket. And I enjoyed the film cause I was in high school...and I didn't have to wait in line or pay. People are stupid and when you know a stupid person it's your job to exploit them constantly.

Thanks man, I'd forgotten all about this one. Wonder if they built that Falcon?

I may have picked this up wrong but I think HIS company was only dealing with the money side of things. So, though he was working with the people breaking the rules he wasn't the one breaking them. That said, due diligence would have discovered that THEY were breaking the rules. BUT if I were him I would have been cool with that cos, you know, Nietzsche et al. (joke). So if this was the case an he didn't have a moral objection then I agree that his mistake was the personally owning the account and not the participation in the first place.

And you should ALWAYS start sentences with conjunctions and CAPS LOCK something.>> ^MilkmanDan:

He talks as though his key mistake was personal ownership of the paypal account, but I think that really just focused the fallout on him rather than across multiple business entities. His key mistake was breaking the TOS/EULAs of the accounts that he was (re)selling, and rolling the dice that Blizzard would never catch on.
They did catch on. Personally, I think it is very difficult to prevent this sort of thing and that your best bet is to either just live with it, or change in-game things to make the motivation for it less enticing. Star Wars Galaxies had accounts for early jedi unlockers (being able to play as a jedi was originally a very rare thing) sell for multiple thousands of dollars also. Since jedi as a class was so attractive and so rare, you'd have to expect that such account sales would happen -- that is just bad design, assuming that you want to prevent such activities.
Still, it is hard to fault him too much since this was relatively uncharted territory. And, it makes for quite an interesting story!

I'm certainly not saying the guy is blameless, but his business existed because there was a need to be serviced. Buy an account, or gold, or use wowglider etc, the end user is risking their account. The whole industry is a grey market and the first rule is buyer beware.

I have no sympathy for people who pay for accounts and get them banned. They know (or should know) what they are getting in to and that they risk loss of the account. I guess it would be hard for a business to write in to it's legal stuff "Your account could be banned at any time due to your or our fault, so suck it and see!"

Jedi? You mean Sith! Unless Jedi stole/borrowed the red light sabers?

>> ^daxgaz:

i would like to see the sword fighting choreography that could hold up to this level of scrutiny.

Any choreography that would involve the defender to actually have to block/dodge the attacking sword would do.

Anyway - the Jedi, with lousy lightsabre skills, are still more dangerous than the chronically myopic stormtroopers.

Dead video replaced.
