So you openly admit to being an asshat. There's a shock.

Yup, but I am also in agreement that SE does need to improve their moderation, and expecting people with higher risk tolerance to just blindly following "da rules" is kinda a meme. If the punishment does not outweigh the benefits of the infraction why not take part? Just out a subjective metric?

A rule that is hardly enforced or lightly enforced people really should not be shocked that people weigh out the options and say whatever. Without harsher moderation this problem will not go away. Saying one shouldn't do x is kinda pointless imo.

If in some alternate universe that were actually true, humanity would be completely screwed.

I would argue humanity is already kinda screwed because of selective or light rule enforcement. If one could make say 1 million ignoring the rules then taking a fine of even 200k why not just do it? Still making profit.

In the end if I get caught so be it, I break the rules knowing the risk. Just so happens the risk is so low and recovery is so minimal I personally do not lose much of anything. In the end my priority is to myself first and foremost. Willing to bet most people that break the rules also operate on the same mindset. We do not break the rules just because it is a calculated risk we take, want people to stop make it so it is no longer profitable for the cheater either in terms of time or income.

Guess what I am trying to say I do not think people follow the rules just because more so because they are afraid of consequences.

I don't even think it's a meme. People are just... you know... not following them. lol
