It's all a matter of opinion and what side of the situation you're on, right?

You're literally sitting here trying to tell people their opinion that it was a dick move is wrong? Let me know how that goes.

For its time, after the lasting effects on the server were discovered, waking the Sleeper was known as one of the biggest dick moves a group of people can do in gaming history. Don't think that ST wasn't aware what the fallout would be when they decided to do it.

They just didn't care.

Our community response now determines how much the next guild thinking about doing it on the next incarnation of P99 cares. Stop trying to minimize our response.
I am not being obtuse. Anything that the community and developers have agreed upon to be a "dick move" has already been added to the PnP, or programmatically done to prevent you from doing it. That is why training is listed in the PnP, for example. Last time I checked, Sleeper wasn't included in the PnP.

You can be mad that Sleeper was awoken. I am not stopping anyone from doing that. I am not saying that I am not sympathetic you didn't get the loot you wanted either.

The only problem I have is people are using faulty logic to try and mask their distain for Seal Team. Just say "I don't like Seal Team, and I am mad that they woke the Sleeper!". You can do that all you want, I don't care. Just don't pretend your distain for Seal Team is actually a coherent argument as to why Sleeper shouldn't be awoken. It isn't. Any guild in P99 can wake Sleeper whenever they want, and for whatever reason. Until the P99 developers change that, you must live with it while playing on P99. You have literally agreed to it by opting in to playing the game.
