"BP or Nexon? Which is worse?"

One of the top poll threads on Basil at the moment. Currently Nexon is beating BP by 18 votes. In other words, bad free MMORPG gaming service is worse than poisoning the Gulf of Mexico.

Well, BP hasn't done anything to a lot of those people.

Because 12-year-olds don't understand BP.

Of course. Not allowing players to access their MMO accounts for a day is much, much worse than killing wildlife and disrupting millions of people's ways of life. That Nexon.

if it doesnt directly hurt them of course kids won't care. silly.

Well, I really dislike Nexon's customer service, and, uhm...

Oil spill in the gulf? Well, nothing of value was lost.

priorities, they has none. I live in florida too and this has basically fucked everything up

y u srs poast

so you are comparing an oil company to a gaming company?

or are you comparing an oil spill to a box that has been unplugged from the public-interweb?

Washington needs to place a ban on all MMO gaming until they can determine if its safe to play MMOs again.

because making a joke of the oil spill is all fine and good, but making light of it by comparing an environmental force of destruction and death to a less-than-stellar game company is a joke, in the bad sense of the word.

BP pineappleed up once. Accidentally. They make efforts (or at least commericials) to fix their pineapple up.

Nexon does it on a month basis, and then has the nerve to expect people to forgive them. After 5 years it adds up.

There shouldn't be a poll to be honest. The loss of wildlife, people's livelihoods, and the destruction of parts of our planet which will take decades to repair (yet not fully restored) cannot be compared to how poorly a gaming company performs (though Nexon is not doing a fantastic job).

BP pineappleed up a few times, in easily preventable ways. They make efforts (or at least commericials) to fix their pineapple ups.

Nexon does it on a monthly basis, and then has the nerve to expect people to forgive them. After 5 years it adds up.

had to fix that for ya.
and yes, nexon and BP make mistakes. which is more detrimental in the long run, an oil spill which has killed many forms of life and destroyed an entire regions ways of living and ruined their livelihoods; or a gaming company producing a bad MMO and maintaining it poorly until it is pulled and put offline?

That's comparing their actions, not the company. The thread title's wording stresses the company.

And that's without getting into the details and arguments about who exactly was responsible for the spill.

okay then, compare the companies if you want. BP is worse in every way compared to nexon.
