It’s amazing what a difference a little bit of time can make: Two years after kicking off what looked to be a long-shot campaign to push back on the practice of shutting down server-dependent videogames once they’re no longer profitable, Stop Killing Games founder Ross Scott and organizer Moritz Katzner appeared in front of the European Parliament to present their case—and it seemed to go very well.

    I saw a random youtuber actually figure this out.

    Get banned from Prirate Software’s chat speed run, Any%.

    He made an account, joined, and just politely asked what Thor thought of the recent SKG EU Parliament hearings.

    Total Elapsed Time to Ban: Approximately 9 seconds.

    Thor then muttered about not wanting to hear anything from any SKG assholes.

    Dude is a literally terminal stage narcissist.
