Here we go with claims of deleting text files and auto-firing. Please Loramin, tell me more.

So you started out claiming that rolling for scout was terribly un-classic ... until I pointed out the stupidity of that argument (because the scout on P99 is inherently un-classic, and always will be unless you get people back on 56k modems). You lost that argument, so then you argued that Scout required so much skill that poor little old me couldn't possibly handle it ... until I pointed out that there is absolutely no skill involved in Scout. Again, you couldn't respond to that, so now you're trying to argue about ... deleting text files?

Seriously, and I say this as someone who has played on this server for years, and wasted countless hours, not even just in the game, but on the wiki for the game: you care way, way, way too much about how exactly 20 people in an elf simulator get to talk to an imaginary person. I mean, the mental health of most people on this forum isn't all that great, but maybe it's time to take a step back and reassess the energy you're putting in to this?

Did you not read the "and I say this as someone who has played on this server for years, and wasted countless hours, not even just in the game, but on the wiki for the game" part? Clearly I have issues, and even I, as a person with issues, can see that dude cares too much about an elf sim.

So wait, is this guy mad that most of the server has agreed to work together on scout and use /random? Fucking lol.

Someone who throws a temper tantrum over the use of the work "skill," shouldn't try to lecture or inquire about the mental health of another. Which, by the way, I thoroughly enjoyed reading. Furthermore, I did address your point about technology, re-read my response to your reply:

Your argument is that the Scout FTE should change because technology has improved over the last 18 years and your relying on the basis of "Show me screenshots..." and what have you. Which that in itself is counter intuitive of your argument because that improvement of technology allows the commoners and plebs of the yesteryears that were on 56k modems (myself included until Janurary 2002) to race with the neckbeards of yesteryears.

You want to talk about me caring "way, way, way too much..." Bruh, you literally said "I say this as someone who has played on this server for years, and wasted countless hours, not even just in the game, but on the wiki for the game," before you wanted to speak about my level of effort in this game. Good job, once again I remind you that you should probably go outside or find gainful employment. In terms of my level of effort, look I don't need a scout mob, and haven't needed one in a LONG time.

Apparently, YOU do (And you should update the signature of your forum profile to actually direct to your magelo profile, since you spend soooo much time on this elf sim, both in-game and out). I'm simply pointing out that its not classic, and the agreement that folks are utilizing is flawed and can be easily exploited without any ramifications other than RnF threads. The classic system, which if people are auto-firing and etc., has ramifications from server staff such as suspensions and bans. And I know the reply you're going to make about having each character agree in chat and what have you, but guess what? If someone doesn't want to agree with the roll, they don't have to, and that'll turn it into a clickfest right there on the spot.

And by "text files," I was implying texture files, which you brought up initially in your reply (Look at the bold print incase you're having trouble):

Wow, just ... wow. You seriously have the audacity to come here and claim that it takes skill to click your mouse over and over again? Or to make a few settings changes to your software (eg. disabling textures)? Or to use a program like autofire?

So in conclusion, Loramin, pull your skirt down. And actually read replies before you go on temper tantrums over the word, "skill."

This part is highly applicable, as Loramin does main a barbarian.

I don't know, tbh I feel like he needs to pull his skirt down.

Anyone that gets this worked up over whatever this scout mob thing is can't have a healthy blood pressure.

I do respect his attention to detail and amount of work he put into his retort, however.
