Doesn't matter. Its all a load of mindless, pointless crap. Seriously.


GGG only gave into loot options to shut all the babies up. No matter how smart you want to sound. Its all bitchy ala bitchness with a lake full of tears that got what you want.

can we just let this thread die now?

Dude, i agree...lol

Keep up those ad hominems, Vooodu. They're the cornerstone of your argument.

You can't get bullied in a video game. As if comparing it to getting bullied over lunch money makes any sense.

Why the denial, Vooodu? Why not own up to your nature? Why not stand up, be proud? Or are all bullies truly cowards at heart?

"

Difference being, when people Bully you over 'LUNCH MONEY" they usually use violence as a way to get what they want.

Violence is merely one tool in the bully's arsenal. Anonymity is another. Here, in this environment, the loot system is the tool, the enabler. Our goal is to take away that tool. Without it, the bullies will be relegated to grappling over each others' loot.

Are you telling me that people are comming over to you house and theatening to beat the snot out of you unless you give up the 'drop'?

False equivalence? At least you're expanding your repertoire of logical fallacies.

There's the old Vooodu we all know and love. And here I'd thought you'd forgotten the Monkey Dance™!

You do realize that's been Vooodu's goal all along, don't you? Mock and ridicule posters, chase them out of the thread? Yet another form of bullying, really, with the sole motivation of discouraging players from expressing themselves, thus preventing the purpose of this thread -- an opportunity to tell the devs (who *started the thread*) just what we think of the current loot system.

But I for one will not abide a bully.

There's literally no logic behind any of your witty replies. I imagine you merely haven't been educated enough to understand any of our replies. Well, either that, or your attention span is that of a toddler and simply cannot make it pass paragraph two on any of our posts. It is quite sad if that's the case, really.

Word of the day: "Non sequitur"

WRONG. Violence is the only tool a Bully has.


I should know, i've beat the shit out of enough of bullys. Hell, one of my best friends used to be a bully till i whooped his ass. Now he buys me lunch all the time...lol

So i guess this is a Bully Thread now huh? A bully thread based on a bitchy CNN american style cry all day cause Bullys hurt my feelin's thread. lulz...


BTW, you can't bully someone in a video game.. Unless you have mental issues. WHICH YOU HAVE.

So stop directing your bitchy posts at me. Im not a shrink.

Sad to who? Some random dude judging me as if he knows me over some silly issue as loot drops.?



Please tell me more.... lulz.

There's plenty of ways to bully people without falling back on the threat of violence, Vooodu. Denying this doesn't change the facts. For example, you're attempting to bully the people in this thread by mocking and ridiculing them. Not very well, I might add. But at least you're persistent.

Great story, bro. Did I mention that it's common (unfortunately) for a once victim to turn around and become an abuser himself?

That's right, twist that knife. Ridicule and mock at every turn. Each time you mock your would-be victims; each time you demonstrate to the thread and to the devs your total and utter lack of empathy; you do our job for us. We needn't even say a word.

"

Loot ninjaing, corpse camping, trade scamming, spawn camping... you've never heard of these concepts?

Your shrinkage is not pertinent to this discussion.

Again, mental issues.

Irony so thick I can taste it in the air. I may add this to my signature.

Golly, Vooodu. You sound like you think you're being mistreated. But bullying certainly can't occur in a forum thread, can it?
