"Persuasion by itself is a tool. It can be used morally. But like any other tool it can be used for evil. The difference between manipulation and persuasion? Manipulation is when you persuade for your benefit only, and your audience's harm."
How does it feal? To see clearly that you're being manipulated:

Tacomangradd says plainly that his everquest playstyle is to manipulate.
And in his mind, manipulative skills are just as valuable as any other tangible in-game metric:
Is Hubris his downfall? He's obviously willing to brag in front of us all about his '
accomplishments.'
Like a comic book villain he can't stop himself from monologing:

In another post
even suggesting the he (and his inner circle) have such control over the p99 servers.
That he can simply dictate more draft weeks. On a whim:

Meanwhile. Rather than practicing FTE racing, raid comms and leadership, or developing strategy to tackle content. Tacomangradd spends his time and money on BGIII early access.
He's that confident in his manipulative efforts. Surprise? He finds joy to be fleeting:

Is Jutebox the kind of person who enjoys seeing people hurt themselves?

Who exactly is Tacomangradd?
Could he be Jutebox from Kittens Who Say Meow? Their avatars certainly are similar:

I personally wish no ill will
Towards Jutebox or Tacomangradd or whoever his friends are.
I simply find the gossiping drama games he's openly bragged about distasteful.
I believe
Sunlight is the best disinfectant for these sorts of anti-social tendencies.
I asked earlier: How does it feel to see someone brag about manipulating you?
I would now like to encourage all of us to remember.
You never know what issues a person may be dealing with in their personal or internal life.
Forgiveness is a virtue. Extending grace is a sign of strength.
But that doesn't mean we have to sit here and eat shit because someone likes to lie and manipulate.
I don't recommend giving money to an addict.
And I would warn anyone to
tread careful when engaging Jutebox/Tacomangradd.[/Q
Someones triggered imagine writing a manifesto about a guy names Jutebox
