Like somehow it is our expected objectivist duty to try to edge everyone out and be awful solely for our own personal gain. And anyone who says otherwise is "Beta" (lawls), weak, or somehow whiny and deficient. This equation makes me laugh. Especially the use of the term "Beta" in a online video game.

Sorry guys, no jobs are being created here, and no economics are trickling down, and Atlas is clearly not shrugging. Also, you're probably not the "Alphas" you think you are.
pretty sure you're the only person in this thread that has used the words Alpha and Beta.

so, being "awful" means trying to do well for yourself in the game by having an equal chance at receiving loot that you helped to acquire?
