I can’t see anything nice or virtuous in impersonating an in-game character, but apparently you’re doing it for the ****s and giggles and, you know, just to do it.

I can’t see anything nice or virtuous about piling onto Ricket for… being honest and upfront about what was done. And I can’t see any point in anyone trying to explain to you what you apparently refuse to read in Ricket’s posts. There’s a big difference between people acknowledging something is abusable (not a “bug,” just a system that needs tweaking) and pulling off a feat that tests and demonstrates the bounds of it, with a “just for ****s and giggles” goal in mind.

You’re welcome to your opinion. And everyone is welcome to judge. But trying to nitpick someone’s opinion of what’s a fun or worthwhile bit of “lulz” to do within a game about trolling internet forums and trying to “dominate” everyone else, I sort of question your ability to define for anyone how they’re supposed to be playing a game.

All that’s accomplished by treating people who are open and honest about what they’ve done in this way is to encourage them to lie, cheat and steal when something can be abused. That, and trying to dictate what BEHAVIOR is acceptable in this particular game, is only going to serve to ruin the experience of playing a game based on a brutal, anything-goes, pancake-bunny-with-your-address-on-it sort of spirit.

If you want to play a game in which nobody can try to do something funny and a little male reproductive organish to make a point, go play Buffy the Vampire Slayer the Card Game. Me, I’ll appreciate this game for what it currently is. For as long as it lasts.
