Eh. Thinking you’re not familiar with the fallacies of logic.

Here, educate yourself:

You keep insisting on shifting the narrative to suit your needs; I think maybe you don’t have a salient point to make.

The issue isn’t that I or anyone else want to hurt people; the example of the arcade days was meant to demonstrate that when people have to own the potential consequences of their toxic behavior, they

I think you have touched on the linchpin of this whole thing. How long have we been simply accepting this behavior as a normal aspect of games? I started online gaming with Ultima Online, then it seemed like the dicks were the exception to the rule. But we didnt, as a community, ever really push back against it. We

I’m going with Option C: the sort of person who doesn’t distinguish between, “behavior was different then because there were potential physical consequences for shit that crossed the line,” and, “I want to punch people in the face for fun.”

Online trolls don’t have the fear of catching a fist with their face, and so they escalate

when you’re in the corner of a sword-wielding, mentally-ill woman who just attempted the murder someone allegedly over video games, you may need to rethink your life choices...

There has to be a way to keep them from getting corrupt. But unions are necessary. If people want capitalism to stick around they’ll have to accept unions need to exist.

That’s the purpose of a union.

feel like your original headline, I, Cecilia, Hate Fun, was a better fit for this one

WRONG

Counterpoint: Junkrat is amazing.

I get the sentiment, but, we (as a species) were lucky to have him as long we did and that he was able to remain productive for as long as he was.

Yes.

You’re hilariously naive to think this functionality isn’t and won’t be abused. It’s outrageous, illegal malware and the CEO should be jailed.

I put a remote controlled bomb in your car but I’ll detonate it only if you run a red light. Won’t be an issue?

I want to thank you all for voicing your concerns
