Yeah, it's getting absurd. Some nutcase was claiming you can get 700 dps out of a 2 million isk Catalyst, for goodness sakes.

I agree. The man didn't do anything but nail a woman. She was the one that cheated, so you should cut her genitals off and feed them to your dog. You should take the dude out and buy him a beer for showing you what a whorin' b**ch you married.

hahahaha! what?! No! Not at all. You should just divorce her and go on living your life. I mean if you want to buy that guy a beer, sure go for it. It'll probably lead to a great friendship. But the genital removing is wrong.

Well, I suppose I have to agree with that, but Salvos seems to be predisposed to, for whatever reason, to dealing with emotional crises by removing the genitalia of those who wrong him. While I cannot judge him, I must make an effort to point him at the correct target.

I said I would choose not to do that if I was the person in the hypothetical (and ridiculous) scenario he outlined.

if anyone deserves the removal of their genitalia, which I strongly disagree with but in the context of the conversation I will entertain an answer, is Salvos. For being so much better than me at every aspect of existence yet not being able to prove he is man enough to satisfy the needs of his significant other as well as I, someone so lowly, am capable of doing. Because if he's so much better than me, yet he cannot satisfy the needs of his partner, well then he is undeserving of his genitalia and should have it removed.

His wife? she is just looking for the happiness that I'm O So able to deliver.

I love how you label PVPers in a PVP game as reprehensible sociopath lunatic trolls and then claim a position of moral and intellectual superiority. And name calling, I mean really? Fair enough some of us do squeal "yarrr" and "pew pew pew" when we are playing (which is a bit odd) but at least we don't burst into tears when someone violences our boats. I quite like it when people shoot mine, saves the trip home.

Mandarine is one of the reasons some people slide into nastiness ingame. All we are doing is playing (properly), and we get all this abuse, ranting, name-calling etc. What do people expect when they rage like babies? I suppose we should all ask politely "Do you mind if I shoot your spaceship" then apologise afterwards, eh.


Do you consider that people who recycle scamming alts are playing properly?

Do you consider that people who pretend to ask for help in their mission, only to gank the naive dude who comes to help them, play properly?

Do you think it´s proper to use a game not to pursue ingame goals, but rather to exploit the emotional attachment of standard gamers to their ingame belongings by using complex meta and maximum cheese to make them rage IRL?

This brings up an interesting morallity question. In some parts of the world, a certain something is cut off once a woman reaches sexual maturity. Now most of us here, including myself, would say that is terrible. But who are we to judge another culture?

You're the one who introduced the prospect of genital removal of your own volition. Meaning it was a possibility you considered.

If you'd bother to read back to the posts quoted, you would see that they were talking about how not sleeping with a man's wife makes him a better man because he didn't do something bad, and the response was that not removing the first man's genitals and feeding them to a dog makes him a better man for not doing something even worse than the thing the first man did not do. At that point, I felt the need to mention that if someone does not sleep with your wife, you should not not remove his genitals, you should not remove your wife's genitals because she is the one who didn't commit infidelity, not the man.

And?

I can consider far worse than that. I can conceive of so many sadistic tortures that it would take several volumes to outline.

But not acting on them is, again, what makes me the better man than you, in the contrived scenario you considered of your own volition where you imagine screwing my wife next to me in my own bed and asking me to join in.

Yeah. Your words.

I realize this. What I was referring to is that you did not say that not divorcing your wife and tossing her penniless behind out on the street makes you a better man, you went right to mutilation, first thing, go to response.

Why would you consider the act of sleeping with your wife a bad thing? Aren't we all entitled to happiness? I'm happy, she's happy, and we want to show you our happiness.

Why would that situation where we are expressing our happiness with each other to you result in you considering removing my genitals and feeding it to a dog as a possible response?

Why wouldn't you just join in? instead of sitting there thinking about how you're not feeding my balls to a dog, in essence considering the possibility of inflicting pain on me?

I went right to that deliberately for purposes of illustrating my point in the example, that by the same logic he raised hiself up as a "better man", I can simply claim that there is an even more heinous act that I also then refrain from taking, which makes me then commensurately the even better man.

It may seem stupid, but so is his premise and logic, therefore so is this outcome.

Its not actually me in the example, you realise? Its not an actual event or situation. As such, there is no need for me to outline which laywer I would call to file divorce, what his number is, what socks I would put on as I leave the house, etc. Only purpose was to illustrate the flaw in his logic.

So you're a pessimist. You automatically go to what could be worse instead of what could be better. Got it, being a pessimist, it's understandable why you're so egotistical and selfish, because since you have such a dim outlook on life, you automatically assume the worst and withdraw within your self.

Dont worry man, I understand that you've experienced some aspects of life that's caused you to withdraw into your shell to protect yourself and wish the removal of genitals on people who just want to have a good time.

But you can get better. I can help you.

We can help you. Sure, there are alot of bad people in the world, and in this community. But there are good people here too and if you're willing to make the effort to let us show you how life can be amazing, we will be glad to take you under our wings and show you a world of possibility!

We're here for you. That's the point of this thread. To remind others that we are here.

Creating and discarding alts for griefplay purposes is against the Eula, but I'm happy with scamming over all. Weeds out the numpties and ISK buyers. Also some of them are really inventive.

Yep. Don't talk to strangers, make proper friends etc etc - actually I despise PVE. Should be removed altogether and we should be forced to make our money by looting other players. Maybe.

Don't be attached to your ingame belongings - they're mine.

I bet you rage when someone 1isks you on the market too. Actually can you write a proper list of bad behaviour, so I can make sure I'm doing all of them. Tia
