Huh... Too bad, I guess. It's not a thing where I live and as it happens none of my international friends have ever mentioned it.

While I am from a Western country it's indeed not the US.

No, in my country nothing of that sorts happens. Piracy is still technically illegal but only a misdemeanor for the end user, provided they don't make any money off the pirated stuff, and no ISP has ever cared to narc about it, to my knowledge.

Of course it's probably different for crackers and folks who run piracy oriented forums.

Yeah I did mean "jumping ship" to a different provider, assuming they didn't all behave like this. And of course I just assumed there were more than one to choose from.

Nasty stuff. VPNs really look like a blessing, from this perspective.

That sounds pretty reasonable to be fair. How else are they gonna check your ticket? Though I get how it would be frustrating if there were no ways to book your ticket from your phone or pc, not sure if it's the case for Paris.

The oak is so based. It's not particularly useful but it remains everyone's favourite tree just because of how beautiful it looks.

I know it shifted from a subscription model to a paid DLC one. Do you actually need to buy some DLCs to get an enjoyable experience out of this? Do you only need the endgame stuff once you get there, like buying the latest WoW expansion? How does this model actually work for chill players?

As an Italian, I thank you for your solidarity and really appreciate you gesture.

Oh wait... It's supposed to be Iran? Heh nevermind.

Already signed. It doesn't have to be necessarily HSR and it doesn't necessarily have to go all the way to the capital, but we need better international rail infrastructure. While locally we have some of the best links in the world (at least in many EU countries, although far from all of them), having to cross the border is always an incredible pain. I believe the Commission is working on an EU wide ticket platform, that will hopefully make things slightly less painful, although what needs to change is the service, not (just) the software.
