    You guys don't wanna sue them for using a copyright protected symbol?

    The EB team should definitly sue them, oh wait, what do you say, freeware? And the only thing we had to sign up was to read more history?
    Gah! When it isnt historical accurate, at least the team can then sue them for violation of the user agreement

    That wasn't even a show to be honest, that was 300 styled Gladiator with softcore pornography thrown in there for good measure.

    Ludens censored it, probably to avoid coorperate copyrights, there was the back of some fine specimen of woman and an exact copy of the SPQR logo from EB.

    Did not look like something I want to see, historically inaccurate, totally inauthentic and unrealistic fights and the sex being boring as well.

    Nah in fact I will be spending the day trying to fix a computer, doing housework and only if I am lucky will I get to training.

    ~ I suppose, but I didn't want to set a precedent. The female-beauty appreciation thread is in the Frontroom, not here.

    It means you can't post pictures of underage girls.

    Move to Denmark, our minority ends at 15. There are special rules for teachers and such, but generally you are legal if you are 15 here.

    AWESOME!
    Does that mean I can drink and drive cars and such, also, do you guys have hot teachers in denmark?

    Erm, I'm getting a little of topic here, am I?

    Also, I've seen that symbol a lot more than only in EB, so I don't think they stole it from EB, also, anyone who played EB wouldn't make such a horrible inaccurate movie/serie.

    What do you think?

    Well it was a joke. I usually think that humor can be transmitted without the excessive use of emoticons.

    But I'm interested in where you found the symbol elsewhere.

    Congrats, but I checked yesterday, you were below 980 then = You should spend more time on your studies!

    The thread was Off Topic to start with, until Ludens thinks it too much I figure we might as well banter.

    Yes we have hot teachers here in Denmark, me for one ;-) More seriously, the most beautiful women on average I have seen anywhere I have travelled are here in Denmark and especially the city I live in; Aarhus (15- 20 % of the pop here are 18- 30 as we have a huge uni in a not so huge city). And there are other hot teachers than me, I for one fancy quite a few female ones the schools I work as a substitute teacher. As does the boys in the high grades...

    As for drinking and driving, yes you can drink at 15 here, but not legally purchase alchohol (and lately cigarettes) until 18 and some bars will disallow people below 21. Driver's License is 18 and we do not much like drunk drivers, nor "connections" between teacher and student unless both are consenting adults (over 18) as teachers etc have a place of authority that they can exploit with youngsters. IE drinking and driving and teacher-pupil is illegal and pederasts have very little fun at the hands of other prisoners in jail... Otherwise all goes, including "connections" before 15 as long as both are minors.

    Before we get carried away I suggest we do not take this further- it may already be offending to some, prudish? maybe, but that is merely a matter of perception from a liberal soul like me who they view as perv.
