@_djpn You have misread the post or your values are insane. The entire point of a NQA return policy is that it disincentivizes carrying unsatisfactory durable goods. An Xbox is not intended to be a wear part. And OP actually replaced it with a new Xbox!

@gattsuru@prolejacketgape I grew up with WinMX and fanfiction, and this all sounds incredibly copycucked. I was under the impression that the furry subculture was enriched in (fellow) millennials, who I wouldn't expect to truck with such proprietary censoriousness.
@usgraphics@xariverty As someone with a habit of picking up knives at garage sales, my view is that if the steel spec isn't printed somewhere, they're ashamed of it because it's crap.
@Pack_Rat_EWaste@MorlockP 1 and 2 are lies.
