REVIEW: Game Has Potential, But Snail Is A Psychopath

[Zentetsuken]

I don't get what is in this community that makes it work like a magnet for some abusive mentally ill persons like you come to forums and discord etc. and shit on me for no reason whatsoever. Behavior that I've never seen in any other game or place. You should think over your life choices and goals, go to shower, go to work or something. If all that you have to say are these pointless accusations that you like to spam with your alts in discord and forums then the case is closed.

Did you just try to totally dodge the point of his comment by calling him mentally ill and trying to play a victim?

You've lost your touch my friend.



Congrats, cherryquartz, you might be the first person who has publicly got under shublas skin so deeply that he's sunk to the low of totally derailing an argument and just blatantly attacking somebody. A tactic he himself has surely personally wrote jorb about 1000 individual complaint DMs about in order to try to have the people punished who have done it to him.

You know raiding, killing and ko'ing are intended mechanics right?

No they are not, to what extent they have recently been used to, sometimes even by abusing bugs. I'm sure that devs didn't intend to make pretty much all of the players quit the game because of 1 mentally ill person. There have been some mistakes made in designing the current mechanics. Just because some mechanic exists and gives the ability to do something, doesn't mean that devs originally intended the mechanic to be used that way. I doubt that any developer wants to see his game die because of 1 person doing ill things in the game via non-consenting pvp.

The difference with Snail is that they aren't trying to blackmail the devs while they do it. You can try to 'morally justify' it however you like, but most of the community think you're a dick and see what you did for what it was, an attention seeking stunt so you could tell everyone how you saved the newbs.

Nothing personal pal, but i'd totally spit in your coffee if i had such opportunity. Your behavior on this forum might be a little too annoying, although i'm on your side in "boat killing controversy".

I think its pretty obvious that it is the intentional intention of the devs to allow their playerbase more than the usual amount of freedom within their games mechanics. The looseness with which they hold the reigns of this horse allows for situations which would be rectified in many other games, certainly. I myself have exploited game mechanics in the past (in this game and others), even stooping so low as to conceal such exploits from the devs in question to further whatever advantage I am gaining. In these situations, where some exploit unknown to most but known to few who use it to gain power over others there is an argument to be made that the players should be more scrupulous and devs more active in plugging holes in game mechanics.

However when it comes to game mechanics which function largely as intended being used in an unexpected way, despite that use being considered unacceptable behaviour by society at large... In these situations I believe it should be up to the players themselves to act as they see fit.

There are numerous factions in-game who could have acted against shubla as he harvested sprucecaps from his boat in a manner akin to sealers clubbing seals. In the same way there are numerous factions who have the capability to put an end to snails reign of terror. Yet in both circumstances those with the power elect not to act personally but instead expect the devs to perform some kind of elaborate "divine intervention".

I am going to go so far as to say that snail would probably relish the experience of being beaten into the dust. Indeed it seems the event he/she/it is trying very hard to rally in those under persecution.

Y'all are a bunch of pussies hiding behind the devs skirts (err trousers).

Devs should perhaps be more active against genuine exploits and botting but I understand that they are not personally possessing of the time required to pursue these rampant issues.

You have the power. Use it.

No reason? Ive stated my reasons, you're a thief, a hypocrite and a vile excuse for a human being, acting like a victim wont wash it with me. You steal people's work, blackmail people and generally stamp your feet if you're not 'winning'. Grow the hell up and take some responsibility for your actions.
The game isnt dying, you just like to say that it is to try and prove your pathetic points. Oh, didnt you also copy the HH discord chat and make your own, trying to get people to move to yours? Are you on some kind of power trip?
Also, i dont have you on discord so these 'alts' you talk about are probably some of the legion of people that dislike you, trust me, there's a looooong list.

the services thread is the perfect opportunity for divine punishment, its trading scarce old playerbase for store items, straight up

devs could get creative with a "Divine Plague", the offending account would be plagued by negative stats, random wounds and can't wear or use anything

getting paid store items to attack a senile playerbase is not simply bullying... it sends a terrible message... but I hope you're right, for the sake of the game, that your friend's message doesn't snowball

Yeah, I think they have plenty of reasons to do it if they want to. He has maybe posted some stuff in C&I but there is overwhelming amount of evidence to allow devs to do stuff.

like what? As far as I can tell your blatant blackmailing of the devs during your boat combat stunt was 1000 times more worthy of divine intervention.

Evidence of what exactly? Offering to raid people for payment? Not against the rules. Attacking people? Not against the rules (you have also done this). Killing people? Not against the rules (you have also done this).

But last i knew, blackmail and plagiarism are actual crimes.
