They put that crap in everything, everywhere.

Zog, we've already downsized and standardized our boxes over here (it's been that way for over a year). So we have the same crap you do, wherever you live.

And as it is right now, there's ALREADY a box with a ship and a planet (something to that extent) on the shelves. I think it's Hedgemonia, not sure. It's good that Freelancer doesn't have this box art too.

Dredloch- thank you

Yes, we have probs. We try and fix them, sometime it works, sometimes it doesn't.

There is no perfect government or society out there. We all try and do our best, but sometimes the best for you isn't the best for me....so we disagree.

But, having moved to the US I will say one thing, if it doesn't work we change it. It may take a while and a ridiculous amount of kicking and screaming but eventually it happens.

So, at least in the US I can say what I want, do what I want and act how I feel within the structure provided.

Believe me, having grown up in Africa, I know how it feels having to watch every word you say.

It may not be the best, but it is by far not the worst.

Whitetiger: if it was solid black with the words "freelancer" I would instantly think it was some sort of counterfeit thing from China and not buy it

I was kidding about the black box. Makes no difference to me how the box looks.

lol, thats is a hell of name, im still laughing as I type. Yeah, I guess i mean packaging in western ways. everything has to be able to be thrown away. Like in ireland(im irish, not born but still am) they make you bring your own shoping bag and if you want one from them its like almost a dollar or something. Thats the way to do it. Id bring my own little tote bag everytime. Thats the difference with america. We think were so all important that we can drive our big suv's(stupid useless vehicles) waste gas. Eat McDonalds and throw away all the packaging on the street, watch freakin American Idol while our dumbass president who cant even pronounce the word nuclear -->NEW-CLE-ER(not NU-CU-LUR) is tyring to start a war in Iraq. Uh-oh, im going off, ill stop i know this is off topic.

American Idol is a European creation...

And we're not all litter bugs, Mr. Stereotype. And most people save all those shopping bags to do other things (book covers for paper, small trashbags for plastic).

I can't really comment on the SUVs. I have an '89 Chevy Silverado, but it's really a pickup with a roof over the back. And it's not shiny and clean either, so it's put to good use.
