Are you new to the world, not just the internet, in general? Everything and everyone, generally speaking, will fuck you over in this world if you don't CYA. If you dont think so, I could really use your help. I am a rich prince in Africa that needs your help getting access to my money, if you send me some ill pay you back with interest. Once i get my money ill come to America to sell you a Bridge cheap too for helping me out! Since we are such great guys just helping each other in this world.

The people who helped code THJ, i think largely didn't realize what they were going to do with this. Supposedly Secrets had a lot of help with the code base, and she had no idea it would be used in this way. This is a few individuals fucking others over for some cash. Story as old as time.

I've been ripped off by every single person I've trusted with my account in every MMO. Special exception: Eisley. I trust the one who has mine atm more than most, but it's been a troubling trend. For such a toxic person, I don't have the impulse to rip all the gear off people. Why are normal people so evil?

My best guess? Tribalism, we are nice to the people we know/like. However, we are also quick to "other" someone that is outside our proverbial "tribe". You add in taking the path of least resistance is the most likely path for any living thing and being nice and considerate is a lot harder than being an asshole sociopath. Sprinkle in some online anonymity, and it's a recipe for people who are social rejects to come together to make the 'normies' miserable. A game like EQ just really makes these things easily come together to make a toxic landscape if not moderated heavily.

This is Gen Z in a nutshell "There is Nigerian prince scams" so that means "everyone is scamming me"

Because they are really, really dumb and have been told they are special and everything they do is right, and they let the world know it.
