“Disrespecting your opponent can be a psychological play. A ban for taunting removes an important human aspect. Competitive games can tell a story about the players if you let them. Trying to force everyone to be ‘friendly’ is shortsighted.”

The first event, that you couldn’t buy the skins with gold, was more of a “scam” to me, but now that you can buy them, albeit with an increased price, I’m ok with the format.

Uhh, the motorcyclist is at fault here. It would be one thing if he was at a closer follow distance, but he’s way way back. Had plenty of time to stop.

...briefly!

Play on console, in a party with friends. It’s very fun.

Am I supposed to be shocked by the result?

This is my favorite post from you, ever.

Just bought FFXV last night, only played it for a few minutes but probably going to get into it a bit this weekend.

Edit: Ironically, this probably costs more than $2k.

I am not someone who thinks spanking makes any damn sense, but I certainly think there’s a difference between light open-hand spankings and child abuse.
