...but this legislation would be like burning down a building to get rid of its roaches.

Sounds like something we WOULD do, come to think of it...

Yeah, Bay12 is such a niche website that shutting it down would probably do more harm than good. Same reason the DF Wiki didn't shut down.

Its okay for you that other blacked out website but not you're favorite websites? Sure Bay12 is nice and all but the point about shutting down the websites is to illustrate what might happen to you're favorite website. I dont think you get it why people are doing this.

I said niche, not nice. I was referring to how the target audience is so small shutting down Bay12 and the DF Wiki wouldn't really accomplish anything, especially since I'm sure the majority of us already know about SOPA and are against it.

People are doing it to spread the word. Wikipedia didn't even shut down and it did a great job of that.

regardless, the slime shooter will be completed, come hell or high water, which are both entirely plausible setbacks at this point.

Ok, I need more coffee.. I read "Burn the legendary soap makers" and thought "uh, why? I need soap.."

SOPA is another story. The Swedish word "Sopa" would translate to "Trash"... Sounds about right to me!

In one fort I had war elephants riding camels into battle. I can imagine the war elephants taming them simply by picking them up and dropping them in a coral. I still don't understand how you can fit a few ton elephant onto camel though.

Makes sense, "soopa" is in Finnish a rather nice word for "Bullshit"

Given the general attitude about SOPA/PIPA here, shutting down the site wouldn't actually accomplish much of anything.

It would do what SOPA attempts to do but can't. FU SOPA! We'll shut ourselves down.
