It's outrageous that they lock the accounts to gamespy ids.<br>
<br>
If gamespy was a program without spyware, it wouldn't be such a big<br>
beef, but since the program is totaly corrupt with spyware, it's not<br>
welcome on my machine, neither will I use their services.<br>
<br>
I wish spyware would be made illegal in such ways so I never have to<br>
see a program try to give anyone spam without them clearly knowing it<br>
will before they install.
<br>
<br>
Locking the account to gamespy should also be illegal. Should I have<br>
to give gamespy full access to my computer just so I can use the game<br>
fully? I bought the game. All the content should be mine to administer
<br>
in the ways possible to me. Functions put over to a third party which<br>
happends to be corrupt, is unacceptable. They should be available to<br>
me as an owner of the game, for free, without spyware.<br>
Spyware is practically built in to BF2 as it is right now. I bet EA
<br>
gets theirs from Gamespy for forcing people to sign up.<br>
