The "many" could kill everything on the server without batting a lash. Saying its not fair or demanding change effectively silences their wants which isnt fair.

Sharing isn't fair. Got it.

Yes, there is nothing inherently fair about sharing. Would you care to share your paycheck or wife with the good elfs of this p99 or your new home phinny?

And no, that doesn't mean sharing cant be fair, only that it is not necessarily fair. It is application dependent ^^

sharing pixels in a free elf simulatar =/= sharing wife with some poopsocking neckbeards. And the fact you even make that comparison and think it's a valid one, says more about you then anything else you've posted....

Safe Travels.

Of course it's not an equivalent exchange ^^ (at least to most) It serves only to simply refute the point that sharing is inherently fair. It's not and as I said, it can be but simply sharing to share is not fair :c If you would prefer a trail, I can do that too ^^

Suppose you and I are partners. We perform together. Our entire act is collaborative. We are both of equivalent appeal with more or less the same number of fans. How should the proceeds of our performances be split?

Suppose we tire of performing and enter the field of widget manufacture. We open a business together and both are employed by it. I manage to produce 3 widgets per day while you produce 5. How should the proceeds from widget sales be split.

Now suppose you don't like me anymore, but my love for you remains steadfast and I open a new branch office in attempt to mend our relationship, where I manage to produce one additional widget per day. How should the proceeds from widget sales be split?

Now suppose Raev opens a widget shop. His widgets are very well designed and reliable. He produces 3, but they stale and boring and nobody wants to by them. How should the proceeds of widget sales be split?

Our relationship continues to deteriorate despite my best efforts and you leave me for another cattle. Our business is torn like my heart, but we all continue in the widget industry. Our production and sales remain unchanged. How should the proceeds of widget sales be split?

Now suppose Trollolololol enters the widget industry. His widgets are by all standards ordinary, but he works 21 hours everyday producing and selling widgets. He produces 28 widgets, saturating the market and sells them all before we are able to finish ours. How should the proceeds from the sale of widgets be split?

tl;dr Find a better analogy.

False Analogy. Try again.

Demanding blood from people who are willing to invest a lot of time kind of is

My nieces like to make busywork for themselves and call it work too, but at the end of the day it's still just a game and they're not forcing the other kids on the playground to play by their rules and telling them to leave if they don't like it.

What's remarkable is there's a server designed specifically for the kind of gameplay those that want to work or compete for it that is going basically unused. But it's not competition they want, it's "winning" they want, so they play on the server they can "win".
