If this is how DRM engineers are, they better enjoy their employment while they still can.

An example of some of his crap:
"You people need to EDUCATE yourselves before you trash other people or companies for their decisions!
There is no limit on the number of times you can install the game, there is only a limit on the number of times you can activate the game. There is a HUGE difference between the two!
You can uninstall and reinstall the game as many times as you like and as long as you don't format your hard drive or tamper with the SecuROM registry entries you will only use one activation."
"Because you're all really just EA haters and just using their DRM policies as an excuse to publicly defame them. Nothing more."
"You people are hopeless"
"me=leaves thread in disgust"
"Do us all a favor and format the hard drive between your ears!"
"If you don't like Mass Effect's and Spore's DRM policies, blame EA for that since they, not us, are the ones that decided to implement those restrictions.
For example: A man goes into a gun shop and buys a Colt 45. Several days later he uses the gun to murder someone. Do you blame Colt? Do you blame the gun dealer? No! You blame the person that pulled the trigger!"
"By that remark, you're just looking to pick a fight. Sorry but I'm not going to play your game."
All I can say is, wow.
