Hey, Jack, how's it going? I know you're out of the limelight, but I was curious: what do you think of the new Gawker layout? Pretty terrible, huh? Makes me so mad I could just shoot someone!
Haha, just kidding, buddy. See you later.
Come back to television Jack. We miss you.
Best of luck in whatever you do, whether practicing law or as an advisor. I mean it.
Hey jack.. so do you want a hand with your Macdonalds application now?
I'd best check it over for picture book inserts, and gay porn, it isnt the best start to your new McCareer.
Having a good day today? I certainly am! Great news about your disbarrment, you have them 'just where you want them'!
Hey Jack, I haven't seen you commenting in a while and haven't "seen" you since that video, and I wanted to know if everything's cool. I know you're dealing with pretty big stuff right now, so I wouldn't expect much, but you haven't been here at all . So, I was thinking "You know, I kind of miss him, but he's been gone for so long."
So, to remedy that I just wanted to inform you of something we're doing here. There is a social network site that has been put together for certain Kotaku readers to get together and play games, chat, discuss games and other topics, and exchange gamertags and the like to play together. We even have the editors come in once in a while. Seeing as you're one of our most popular commenters and a known presence, you're clearly a "Kotakuite" and, I hope, welcome at out community.
If you're interested, check it out at [kotakuites.ning.com]
Okay, when you get there you will come to a page asking you to sign in. Simply sign up (I'm sure you know how this works) and answer the questions in your profile. First, explain why you want to be there. Just a sentence, nothing long. Also, put the name of the person that invited you (me of course). Once that's done, simply wait and hope that the administrators accept you.
I feel that you are a Kotakuite, and your personal stance could bring an interesting and welcome alternative viewpoint to our discussions. Of course, I'd be foolish to believe all of the other members will hold the same respect for you I will. That's to be expected in any group. I just recommend you follow the rules and I'm sure that we'll accept you as one of our own. There will be a few immature sour apples, but sometimes that can't be avoided. I really hope you join us. If I have to, I will fight for my want to get you in there.
Hope to see you there Mr. Thompson!
And by the way, we really should exchange gamertags or something. I know you play something, even if it's just online chess or poker.

You're popular not because you rock, it's because you're too much of a douch bag.
Looks like you're in the running for KoK! I know you can do it, Jack.
Jack, so sorry to hear about your pending disbarment. I have some good news though; I hear Arbys are hiring! I know someone who knows someone who knows the manager of the Jacksonville branch, can put in a good word for ya. Just message me back if you need my help.
Hey Jack, if you want to swap Friend Codes, just send me a message. :)
What makes your fight so confusing, Mr. Thompson, is that you seem to be more focused on the removal of video games then you are the safety of minors. If you are so worried about kids being killed, why not deal with the problem of guns in our country? Possibly crime? Drugs? Do any of those sound relevant?
I would say that if we had necromancy in the world, (maybe you know this word, you did play a video game before, right?) then games like Oblivion would present a real problem. I can just imagine the terror of minors resurrecting old women at grave yards!
But, Necromancy is a fantasy. A distant fantasy, far far out of the reach of children.
Perhaps if we lived in a world where obtaining guns is a far far off fantasy for children, we would be able to play some shooting games with out trouble.
But it looks like we should be more worried about the cause then the effect. Its just easier that way right?
Oh, but then again, I don't suppose anyone would know your name if you did something as just as that.
You hold some valid arguments at times but surely you must agree that the gaming community, at times, can be truly caring. If there is ever a serious issue be it involving murder, rape etc linked somehow to video games I for one, and most of my fellow gamers, will whole heartedly do what we can to help be it in words or actions.
If you wanted to make a difference then help out with video game charities or something similar. Being part of this community would not only settle the silly freud between us but would surely put you in a much better light. A lot of people don't understand your point of view and think you want games banned out-right.
I for one would gladly back you in many cases but please don't generalise the gaming community for the one in a million that bring a bad name to us. We generally are a friendly bunch :)
Jack, I see where you are coming from on a lot of issues, but I think the gaming community would listen more if you were just a little bit calmer about it, and willing to listen to both sides.
We all know that all games aren't bad, and you've proven to know that too, but I just wish you could present your arguement without having to rely on a disaster/school shooting to make it public.
Sorry Jack, you always molest (i.e. harass) us for being anonymous while your "client" is doing the same.
"jackthompson has no friends" hahahahahaahhaahahahahahahahahah
that says it all
Why don't you get a real job?
It's only a legal sting operation if the police are involved, you vigilante.
I want you so hard it eats me up inside.
What is your deal? Why do you think all video games are harmful? They are not dangerous, unless they are given to an already unstable human being. The other millions of gamers out there do not go out and act out this crap they see in a game. If video games are as harmful as you claim to be, and have such a college age following, wouldn't college campuses be warzones? I can't wait until you lose your bar licsense or what ever, and we can stop hearing your rants of which you have no knowledge to back up.
Go to hell Banman
You are nothing more than a modern day ambulance chaser. You prey on tragedy for self promotion. You are the worst kind of scum imaginable. Burn in hell you douche.
