Sears did the same thing every business in america does, they spend their profits instead of continuing to invest

that is literally the only reason amazon became what it is, i hate jeff bezos but he invested every dollar back into the company

Sears hired an Ayn Rand cultist who tried to apply his objectivist Atlas Shrugged John Galt voodoo to actual business by creating intracorporate competition between departments and districts. It was a catastrophic failure and hastened the destruction of the company. Can't access the article beyond the paywall or adblock or whatever but I assume that's what it is about.

Eddie Lampert's story is just pure insanity. I think he has some kind of weird mind-control powers or something.

Did not realize what people meant until I made it to level 50 and spent some time farming etc. I don't think there are enough GM hours in the day to keep up with all the 2 boxers on green. It's so blatant too.

Just tons of people blatantly boxing. Duoing camps, logging on rez box, logging on buff bots. Nothing specific just the sheer amount of it.

Yep. And you don't even have to look for it, you'll discover it simply by playing in certain dungeons or zones. Like I didn't even know what 2-boxing was when Keeth was doing it, that's why I referred to it as "using multiple characters."
