Space Empires V or ridiculous lawsuits? What is the connection?

Ok, so it was not comprehensive, but it wasn't technically wrong.

I just missed one part of appealing.

And as I said, IANAL (I like little-used acronyms that only some people would get

).

i don't advocate throwing out a case without hearing it, i advocate judges with more common sense. i also think we need a more unbiased media. looks like the coffee case wasn't frivilous after all. with 6 billion people on the world, we need a way to get information fast. maybe everyone should have a personalized website?

Judges do use common sense. But common sense isn't really that common. What seems common sense to you is not necessarily common sense to everyone else.

Most frivolous law suits do get thrown out. Only a small number of them slip through. There are just so many cases that the number of frivolous ones seems huge.
