    I'm trying to find the expansion pack to Diablo, Diblo: Hellfire. However, being as it wasn't made by Blizzard in the first place they don't sell it and aside of ordering from from Germany via eBay I can't find it anywhere.

    I'm not paying the prices they have on eBay for what is essentially, a used game. So if you know where I can get ahold of a copy please let me know.

    If only Milo were here...

    It's Lord Vorak's wet dream to overthrow the existing social order. Go figure.

    I don't support pirate software (mainly because it did its part to kill Troika), surprisingly enough. But, when you're dealing with a program that isn't any longer released by anyone, you'd have to consider it abandonware wouldn't you?

    Thusly, I wouldn't have a problem in this case.

    You do realise that abolishing Copyright Law and Patents is going to seriously fuck society up don't you? While I agree that current Copyright and Patent Law is somewhat skewed and over-protective (especially with the US's recent extension in the "Mickey Mouse" Act), abolishing both is throwing the baby out with the bathwater.

    It's probably from all the crap Tipper Gore had been pushing.
    Lately I'm seeing a lot of infringements of free speech by impairing one's right to parody a licensed character or characters. It's all a big load, but if the client has enough money (i.e. a really expensive lawyer), they can get judges to believe anything.

    Well if you are seriously interested in a burned copy of Hellfire then let me know. I personally don't have any burned copies, I've spent a fortune in a half building my moltly library of PC games. But when dealing with a game no longer in print and priced on Ebay for $80 on a game that isn't exactly 10/10, I can see if I can help the desperate and needy. If it was a newer game still in stores I'd say no just because well, for the reasons above... throwing babies away can be a real waste :lol:

    I'll probably end up doing it this way.

    Anyone who finds this via a google search, don't bother asking McKedy about it, consider this a once only favour.

    It can. That's why some of us encourage parents to send their unwanted/wasted babies to Sweden, where they can find a loving home under the protection of DE and his Secret Oil machine.

    ... All of a sudden a night with a hot guy and a bottle of baby oil no longer seems quite as enjoyable.

    Baby oil is all about recycling. It's why we put it on babies in the first place.

    Why has it got such a strong smell then, and doesn't smell of urine or vomit?

    It's the preparation: the babies are pressed until all unwanted materials are expelled, and the remainder is pulverized, blanched, bleached, and distilled.

    When I've said something like that, I tend not to think about what I've said; I'm immune to my own imagination. Of course, if someone else says it, even if it's not intended to be disgusting...

    For the sake of a sane and a healthy imagination for all, I think you would be better putting the paper back in your pocket.
