I think they've exercised more than enough due diligence since the problem was found. The patch was pulled, and if you throw a rock in any direction you're going to hit something plastered with instructions on how to correct the problem.

Well, since this is a blatantly obvious bug in the patch, any compitent level of testing would have discovered it. So no, I don't think they performed anything remotley close to "due diligence".

I bet their test manager is going to be having a serious meeting in the near future.

You're assuming way too much about how they run their tests, or the processes they took in the development of their patch. You can speculate all you want, but it matters **** all in the realm of court.

What are you going to do, spend 500 dollars an hour hiring a lawyer (you clearly can't represent yourself, as I've yet to see a sound argument based off empirical data) to have a judge hear you and... let's see, I think I've seen maybe 10 other people ***** about this thus far, about how you A. wanted to play a game B. there was a minor problem during a particular phase C. it didn't effect everyone D. it wasn't malicious and E. they came out with several solutions to the problem that offers you no harm except a minor, economic set back or maybe 30 minute inconvenience.

The true problem is that the CCP has proven that there are individuals out there who own computers that have absolutely no clue as to what they're doing. What we should do is require folks to have knowledge about their heavy machinery before we let them operate it. A simple certification check to see that they at least have the knowledge on where to *find* solutions should be a requirement before anyone can touch a keyboard. Right now all we have is a bunch of ******s poking at bricks and bothering the few and the proud who can at least figure where to go to solve a problem they may have.
