2- Chip wanted another cash cow to go with the Gay/Porn sites. He wanted to control the way the debates/wars could be held. He wanted an advantage...I can see that.
3-The gang wanted to yell without being yelled at...I can see that. I feel the gang also wanted to be seen as academics discussing DL....Can't see that. You can't make a stallion out of a jack-ass, no matter how loud it brays.
They all got something from Degree Info. Vanity/Applause, money/control, protection/academic standing??? nope.
DI was the perfect mouse trap. It lured you in and then chewed you up. You can't win a debate when the other side makes all the rules.
It's like an impeccably dressed guy with a Sinatra voice who offers you "free land-line long-distance calls for life" for only $1000. But act quick, or the "loophole" may expire. He's your best buddy for the fifteen minutes it takes you to sign up: he even pretends to like the pathetic fake antiques you got in the living room, and buys the story your uncle was with the secret service, and actually shot Castro dead in 1965...as long as the check clears...then goodbye sucker...ah, one last thing...there is no such thing as free long-distance for life, you twerp, but the $1000 check was sweet
