PROTEST AGAINST SOPA

Talk about whatever - video games, sports, doesn't matter as long as it's not in another section.

PROTEST AGAINST SOPA

Post by Armored Entity »

Hey everyone, I really need to bring this to your attention.


Congress is planning on passing the SOPA bill on the 24th. We cannot let them do that. We have to make them stop.

Tomorrow, a ton of internet sites have decided to shut down their servers and replace them with a redirect page to a site to show the world why this is a bad idea and why Congress should not pass it.

We have to keep working to make sure this does not succeed. If you would, please, all of you do what you can to make your voice heard and convince Congress that SOPA is a bad idea. We have less than a week to do this, so please do whatever you can to help.
I would like to ask a favor from for anyone who is my friend here.
If someday we meet in person in the near future, and I had recently done anything that would confirm that I had become a Brony (which as of now I am not one), such as if I had posted on a Pony-related fan-site, drawn a Pony-themed artwork, contributed to a Pony fanfic, or anything else along those lines. If I have done anything like that, I want you to punch me in the face without warning. This make sound like I'm joking, but I am absolutely serious about this. Ignore any future statements retracting this if I ever make any. Though if you do, please first confirm that it is me who is doing it, and not some Brony who is posing as me and wants to see me get punched. I do not wish to go down the path of the Bronies, and hopefully those of you reading this will help me so that it stays that way, if god forbid I ever even attempt it.
Thank you.

This topic is unnecessary.

Any action we take will be unnoticed by the vast majority.

If everyone thought like that, nothing would get done, sure. But if everyone thinks different, that's an enormous cumulative voice. Even if you think nobody else is going to speak up (you're wrong), you should, because it's the right thing to do.

You know what'd be awesome?

Make an anti-SOPA Fraxy vid.

Like, build a huge SOPA flagship and pit it against the player, and when the player is almost dead, hundreds of other player ships join forces to take it down.

It'd be a huge ad for Fraxy too :FFawe:

I love your ignorance. No, really. All of you. Maybe not IE (dunno if he knows), but SOPA'S GONE. WE DON'T NEED TO DO ANYTHING ANYMORE.

I'm loving your ignorance.

SOPA AND/OR PIPA ARE NOT DEAD, JUST SLOWED DOWN. THEY ARE NOT DEAD UNTIL PEOPLE STOP TALKING ABOUT THEM.

So apparently ACTA has replaced the SOPA bill, while going over the people's head.

There is an option to ask some of the president's senior supervisors about it tonight after the "State of the Union" Address.

You can probably follow this link to ask about that, or more.
