Mark Gerhard testimony in Bruce vs Evony case

Featured Replies

Libel law across the globe is nasty stuff, and he was lucky to get away from that cleanly. props to him, and mmg - nice to see UK gaming stick together.

Everyone's so eager to see what mmg said, it almost makes me think you're expecting him to have been dropping new skill hints in the courtroom lol

Evony is by far the worst example of baiting pubescent males with b00biez in advertisements that I have ever seen. Glad they didn't win... tbh I want to read the criticism the guy wrote about them but the link isn't working for me.

Like I said in another thread my dad got sucked in by the "b00biez" and I thinkt it's hilarious.

Indeed, come for the boobs, stay for the promise of boobs, leave when you realize the boobs are a LIE. :evil:

 

Of course this is nothing new, Evony is just the most blatant example. Most games that engage in this form of advertising at least feature their female mascots in revealing looking ARMOR, Evony ads are just women in bikinis now basically.

I'm not breaking the news to him that there's no boobs.

Tbh I don't mind those ads :P

 

Evony is really just the tip of the iceberg here. Seriously, have you ever played a game with women in it that did not in some way use them as teen-bait? And before you say Runescape, I've seen Rs ads/concept art etc that contained attractive females with significantly less clothing than most females wear. Maybe not as bad as some other games, but Jagex isn't completely innocent here.

To be honest, it's kind of weird to get off on a RS character. I could understand if the game had better graphics and more detail, but...

 

Anyway, who took a pee on our names?

Mayn U wanna be like me but U can't be me cuz U ain't got ma swagga on.

Does anyone actually play Evony? o.O I mean I guess so, I just never hear anything about it.

 

Yeah I'm playing it atm - I wanted to see what the fuss was about. One of the 'quests' is to join an alliance, then get rewards as your alliance gets bigger. Overnight, we went from 20 members to 80.

Very sad to see this turnout.

 

 

You wanted evony to win?

 

May I ask why?

I played Evony because my friend was playing it and its pretty much afkable, so I'd do it while I got EP. Some of the people that pay when they play are ridiculous. It's basically a game where you can lose everything overnight if you're not online or you don't pay for truces (which keep you from being hit for 12 hours).

 

The people are pretty shady though I will say that... nice to see that he won. Too bad thats not gonna be a lot of money.

Started free trade with 1.5m cash. 2 weeks later, have hit max cash 2x.

 

PvP drops: 359 Brawling Gloves, 11 Vesta's Longswords, 41+ Zaros/Ancient Statues

9 Dragon Full Helms, 3 Dragonfire Shields on the old PvP loot system

 

Brawler guide is being finished!

 

Very sad to see this turnout.

Bruce was making alot of slanderous comments and connections with no basis in fact.

I liked this comment on the news post thing describing the case:

 

"What a shame, I was looking forward to hearing how the Evony evidence to the court gradually just became ever larger pictures of boobies."

 

OT: From just that, it seems to me that evony could be linked to possible criminal rings in china and be linked to gold farming <_< I'm suprised jagex didnt think that too and go in to screaming "END FREE TRADE! REMOVE THE WILDERNESS! KILL THE CHINESE GOLD FARMERS!!"

DK drops (solo/LS): 66 hatchets, 14 archer rings, 13 berserker rings, 17 warrior rings, 12 seerculls, 13 mud staves, 7 seers rings

QBD drops: 1 kite, 2 visages, 4 dragonbone kits, 3 effigies, lots of crossbow parts

CR vs. CLS threads always turn into discussions about penis size.
...
It's not called a Compensation Longsword for nothing.

I've sent a 12k combat mission to have Aiel assassinated (poor bastard isn't even Pincers-tier difficulty).

I think the general gist is that Bruce won the case BECAUSE his comments were fact. If there was no basis then he would have lost the case. I don't agree with a lot of what Bruce comments about (especially with regard to piracy... I don't pirate games either) and he does like to pick fights with people but in this case he is 100% right.

 

I have sent Bruce an email asking for a copy of the transcripts when he gets them and will post what MMG said when he does.

A quick glance at the transcripts seem to suggest that when MMG gave his affidavit he didn't do it by sending a letter he was on the phone in court via Skype. I will have a more detailed read later.

Do you have evidence of this or care to point out some examples?

 

Apparently Evony was unable to prove that bruce was being slanderous. It's not Slander if you are dealing in facts

I go to check out the links at the top of the first page and see an ad for "World of LordCraft" with a half-nude lady on it. Seriously..

Thanks to Iglw for the amazing signature!

Yea, that stupid Bruce Everiss and all of those "facts" he presented not only in court but in his blog. I mean, what do pictures and press releases mean anyway? NOTHING, that's right.

 

Not that it matters. Bruce will continue blogging, and Evony will go back to making Generic Asian MMO #98579234847593874593784593874593478589347958348753974

 

for the glorious people's republic!

I just went to a website and guess what the add on the side of the page was. A picture of a half naked girl with flashing boobs(that's right flashing) with the words "come play my lord" next to her... The game must really suck if they need to have advertisements like that to get people to play it lol.
