Libelous comments hurt people's reputation and thus make them suffer financially, e.g. if you say that the death rate of surgeries performed by Dr Smith is 80%, you will scare away his patients and Dr Smith will earn less money. That's why libel is a crime in our society, regardless of your countries.

And when we say that next week there will be a Ubisoft Bundle or Lego Bundle, what will happen? Yes, gamers will refrain from purchasing Lego games and games made by Ubi so that they can buy them for $1 later from Humble Bundle. What if they don't show up next week? Just wait, wait and wait, until one day they eventually become Humble.

The results? Ubisoft and Warner Bros will earn less money. So saying a game will feature in Humble Bundle is NOT different from saying that it contains spyware. People will just stay away from it and the developers will suffer financially.

Do a favor to the gaming industry. Stop guessing which games will become Humble.

You're right, I'll never buy a game again hoping it will be in a bundle.

Sometimes I wonder why people start posts like this. Comparing a Doctor loosing money because he is causing more lives then he saves to being waiting one week for a game to come out in a bundle because it would be cheaper....Yeah that is totally the same thing....Never know those people might not have intended on buying that game until they heard it was in the bundle....But you make people buy a game just because the dev's might loose money....If you are really concerned then I am sure you can buy many legit copies of the game just so they don't lose money.

Yeah, you think about that part. Did your small mind cover the period after this bundle?

When this bundle ends, without Dead Space 2, more people will buy it than any other time before the bundle, because it got advertised thanks to the Humble Bundle.

Did anyone seriously believe there was going to be a Humble Lego or Humble Ubisoft bundle?!

But if what you say is true, and it could cause harm...
HEY GUYS I HEARD THAT THE NEXT BUNDLE IS A HUMBLE ACTIVISION BUNDLE! IT IS COMING SOON!

It's only libel if you say it will, not you think or you wish it will. And of course nothing is libel if it is true. Libel has a specific legal definition that requires a person to make a statement purporting it to be fact, not opinion, that is false and defames or harms another. People use words like that alot without knowing what they mean.

You're very confused. Your post, while not at all libelous, is closer than the things you claim are. I recommend deleting your post before even more people read it and think you're a moron. Of course, it doesn't much matter what people here think of you, I suppose.

Perhaps next they'll try and explain irony to us. That's another word that people never get right.

You're completely misunderstanding what libel is. It's not about reducing sales; it's about hurting the reputation.

I speculated that Hot Pockets would be on sale the next week at the store, so none of my friends bought Hot Pockets this last week.

Hot Pockets WEREN'T on sale!

Will the store sue me!??!?! :'(
