In court matters, amended complaints were published yesterday, and I've just finished reviewing them. Since this thread has gotten absurdly long and somewhat sidetracked, I decided to start discussion of them in a fresh thread.
Please leave any talk of review bombs or SJWs behind. Thank you.

Simply asking people for their feedback is not "minimally" acceptable, it's across the board accepted by everyone. Have you ever heard of Rotten Tomatoes or IGN? Seems like plenty of people are fine using those sites.
Asking for input with the stated goal of damaging someone? You literally said you were trying to get more negative reviews. I quoted it right to your face and yet you insist that I'm misunderstanding. I can read.
Again, you don't seem to understand that it's okay, people have the right to both ask for and express these ideas. The *intent* isn't to damage, the *intent* is to get feedback with the *hope* that Paul and Fred get funding. A Hollywood producer won't win a suit against either me nor Rotten Tomatoes when I use the reviews on Rotten Tomatoes to judge a movie I decide not to see. Maybe you live in a country with limited freedom so you don't deem such a tactic acceptable, but Stardock is a U.S. company.
And that is enough, as you should know if you actually read what I posted and then reposted for your benefit, though this part wasn't put in italics.
But that's the irony I pointed out which is now more ironic because you didn't understand that. You did undersell your sympathy as if to say there was still an ethical qualm you had with it, which I don't see any reason for unless your upbringing was in a country with more limited freedom.

SJW is one of those meaningless insults that reveals you more about the person hurling it than the person it's being hurled against.

It is always cute when people cry "freedom of speech" on the internet. This is all private property here. You have as much freedom as the owners or their proxies (such as Death, a Moderator) allow you to have.

Not really. Because even then there are restrictions. You can't yell fire in a theater. You can't provoke others to commit a crime.
You have freedom to say something, but it's not freedom from consequences, legal or otherwise.
