Maybe i'm just an idiot but what's this "jack vs microsoft" thing? Can someone give me a link please?

i don't have a link, but twice Jack thompson has actually accused microsoft of being resonsible for tragadys because of their games. First he accused counter-strike of causing V-tech, and then accused HALO of causing the beltway sniper attacks. he has threatened to sue microsoft.

I don't think it's going to be newgrounds. I think it's going to be all of the internets.

O LAWD, he would lose, badly, I think. Remember, mess with a chan, mess with the internets.

Are you serious?

If it is a website it will probably be NG or Maddox.

It would be like Penny Bain all over again, but with more publicity.

Do you think Tom would mind if someone alerted Thompson to the content here? You know, to stir up some controversy and show off the new redesign?

Exactly my point. I, for one, think it'd be refreshing to see what Tom has to say about Jack Thompson, and vice versa. We'd definitely see some flash trends out of it, too.

Not really. Thompson is absolutely pathetic, and he'd only make a laughing stock out of himself.

I wouldn't do that. I'm sure Thompson has heard of NG by now, so there'd be no point in doing anything to get his attention. It would be a meek response anyways, it's not as if he ever has anything intelligent to say.

Amen to that. Makes things more exciting, spices up the site and it draws more attention. Dumbass doesn't know it'll only make us more popular.

Like that matters? He still manages to get publicity to ignorant stations that are willing to let him spew his bullshit, and are always wuick to call him in, citing him as an "expert". You know, you don't need a license to sue somebody, or to get on T.V, or to just be an ass (the only thing Jack Thompson is an expert at).

I just hate it when he's referred to as a "video game expert". He couldn't know less about video games!

I don't think he could draw any real connections between what Adam did and the content on Newgrounds. Not to mention, the Newgrounds community (well, some of us) felt for his death. Newgrounds didn't influence him to do what he did. He was just simply just a contributor to our fun.

As for Weiss, fuck him. He had mental problems to begin with, and seemed to be obsessed with some pretty goofy subjects anyways.

Sadly, I'm forgetting that the demographic that Jack Thompson appeals to are lazy air-headed idiots who are too lazy and ignorant to investigate topics and come to their own conclusion. Though, I sincerely doubt that anybody here could care less if a few dim witted parents disapprove of Newgrounds either way. If kids really want to come onto this site, they'll manage to do it.

If Thompson knew about Newgrounds, which he probably does, the first flash he sees will be Pico...

Good. I hope he sees the most vile, disgusting, and offensive content on the site. There's not a damn thing he can do about it, and and none of that stuff will ever change ( I can only hope), especially not for somebody like him. I'm not saying that just to spite him. I mean, isn't that what NG's all about? The community here as a whole decides what does or does not stay (unless legal issues are involved), and we have our own cesspool combination of shit, garbage, talent, art, and comedic gold. That's what makes this place what it is.

Let Thompson find it on his own...the next thing you'll know is that Thompson will sue Tom Fulp.

He focuses on more things than just video games. He's gone after 2 Live Crew as well as Howard Stern. As far as internet awareness, he's had conflicts with Penny Arcade as well as a few other sites, and has reportedly posted on internet forums with Cease & Desist threats and opinion slanted political stupidity. I'm not saying he's intelligent enough to type a URL in to a search bar, but I'm sure he's heard of most popular sites before.

Sue based on what? The most he could ever do is verbally attack the site, seeing as the site administrators do their best to keep everything nonchalant and according to the law. If anything, he'd just make an ass out of himself.
