I love how people were rationalizing low Velious release by saying there was no announcement too. Get the fuck out of here lmao.

It’s because people don’t want to deal with all the pathetic bullshit anymore. I mean just take a single glance at the Green UN discord at any point in the day and you get yet another glimpse at the caliber of player you have to endure.

You can roleplay a scumbag, I don't think anyone will disagree with that. It's hard though, because for a good role player you need to be consistent and good ethical people find it hard to be an evil scumbag on a consistent basis. Sure when you have your D&D session the rogue can do something naughty and the requirements are complete. But to do it time after time, you have to be rotten on the inside.

The first person who knew how the list worked and still took the beads and didn't report it was a scumbag, and so was every single person who followed until that one guy who gave it all up. An opportunistic scumbag on the inside, the real person. You can talk about mechanics and lists and what Brad intended or what the coding issues are but in the end I don't want to play with scumbags. People who game the system to screw others for their own benefit, using weak-ass mechanics or intended excuses are just that and I'm glad to know most people feel the same way.

Oh I understand the humor and the deviousness of it, a part of me appreciates it, like if the movie had a good plot. But those people were dirty. Defend them and be as dirty as they are.

Judgment on character alone is poor judgment.

That is not Man's place. 💯

Yea, it really is unacceptable that people get an advantage through using game mechanics.

Participation trophies for all!

First I’m defending using true classic mechanics vs artificial and non classic ones. Not scumbag behavior.

Second I’m pretty sure you just described the servers general behavior as a whole with your quoted text.

Anyone that has a brain and is not just a crying mass of uncontrolled emotions would agree that a permaban is an outrageous punishment for this offense. Maybe a week off, 2 weeks tops. If I know these list camps like I think do, many of these beads were being stolen from people who were likely working on getting their 2nd, 3rd, or even 4th set of them. Those are the people that should really be punished if you ask me.
