No its not. If we would consume less meta there would be less suffering.

and if we all killed ourselves, there would be even less.

what's your point?

I remember 20 years ago when I started playing the Might and Magic games. As part of the campaign I had to play the devil race and kill the good guys. I didn't want to play evil. But then I thought, it's just a game, and the devil race are just playing pieces.

I remember playing Vampire: The Masquerade. For the main character to stay alive he had to sink his teeth into innocent people's necks and suck their blood. I didn't want to do that either. But then I thought, it's a game, and the characters are just playing pieces.

Worst of all is when I learned to play an evil game called chess. I hated the idea that pawns were expected to sacrifice their lives to save the elitist snobby royalty of kings and queens. I didn't like supporting such an oppressive system. But then I realized that it's just a game and they are playing pieces.

People will consume as much Metagame as they want! If a skill dominates all other skills within content, people will use that skill!

i'll excuse myself out of this thread now

what's worse?

maybe locking 6 people into a small chamber without food and light for years now. in standard league

Upon further review i have decided to roleplay a little this league.

My contagion/blight witch wearing the conquest armor set is clearing those incursions quite well.

Cough on just one, then hit 'em with contagion - poof, they're all dead and the loot is all mine.

It was response to Charan. Dont tear it out of context.

IMHO OP is [Removed by Support] that gets offended by things that dont matter. As i stated in one of my prev posts - if you want to get offended get offended by real things.

Also about meat - ist started as response to someone similar to OP, someone offended by "brutality" to virtual mobs but consuming meat on daily basis. Yeah... logic.

Need to get over that. Life is cruel... even at a cellular level. The real problem is overpopulation, not what people eat, but how many people are eating it.

I have to admit its really weird seeing Shags have a higher league count than I do.... that and it's odd how people go from meaningless discussion of virtual genocide to real world food supplies and humanitarian slaughtering of food.

everything looks undead or otherwordly in there, i feel no shame or regret plundering through, no.

Ugh, dude. Too far. The OP is clearly trolling -- have you seen them engaging in the conversation they started?

But I figure just because a troll starts a conversation, doesn't mean we can't try to make it worthwhile. To give that which will likely exist regardless some semblance of meaning and purpose.

Sure. If someones punch You in the face instead saying "herro!" doesnt mean You cant talk with him, right?

No. Im a simply man. If someone is mean to me or just stupid i give exackly what he/she gave on the first place. There are too many ppl on the world to waste Your time and attention or such stupid "games".

To far? Heh. You havent see me on my full potential :)
