No one is entitled to the "right to play video games" in the constitution.

Life is tuff i'm sure, but wheel chair bound individuals don't go around filing lawsuits to automakers for putting the clutch/brake/accelerator on the floor when the steering wheel is soo high up in the car. The truth is and will always be...majority rules...

@Morpheus: I wasn't saying that I was laughing about the color-blind situation, but rather that NCSoft has the intelligence to listen to it's community in order to prevent a court case. SOE may not have that intelligence, however.

@Rxu: That was entirely my point. It's foolish for him to file a lawsuit, when he could have requested something from the development team. All he wants is money.

@MajTom: I was not saying simply because I have been at multiple court cases, that I'm a lawyer. I haven't taken the bar exam, or taken courses on law, other than read Mississippi Law and Alabama Law from my father. I was relating it to a situation I have experienced, though there really wasn't a similarity. However, the reason for filing a lawsuit are what I find awkward in both situations, because money is the goal of the two.

Greed is just a plague on society.
