    Yeah, you play with people who bend to your will. Once the mechanics and balance has been established, those people will be a dime in a dozen. You'll end up bitching about nobody accepting you with your LS and then you can all be miserable together.

    I don't care really. Just don't bring it to the forums when it happens so I can avoid having an aneurysm.

    The fact is that the society will establish general norms sooner than later. If you can't follow them, you are an outcast and so will be everyone else that thinks the same way as you do. You'll probably find each other in the long run though. But to think that regardless of if this is a game or not the people playing it won't establish the same kind of norms as in real life would be far-fetched. People make this game as much as the mechanics behind it.

    Reminds me of this one forum poster that was very active during the early days. Can't remember her name though.

    lolnorms. Also I dont whine about my problems in this cesspool.

    Also people have diiferent ideas on what is "optimal" as you would say. So someone thinks stacking a ton of int is optimal. That's fine. I might think stacking int and pie is optimal. You can't force people into a single play style.

    There will be a general norm for what is considered optimal. If you fail to meet that criteria, you fail to meet the norms set by the general society. Society can, effectively, force you to act the way they want unless you want to be outside said society because they won't accept you otherwise. It's a tradeoff as clear as it can get.

    Anyway, phones are just phones too. It's okay to be rude when talking to someone on the phone as well. I'm sure they understand. It's your phone and merely an object after all. lolnorms of being polite and compromising. I don't want to meet you in real life.

    except I wasn't being entirely serious with that post. Even I can make fun with speculation.
