I THINK GOLD FARMERS ARE STUPID POOTYHEADS AND WOULDN'T KNOW HOW TO KILL AN ORC IF THEY HAD TO.
So, if people in a game are cheating, you think it makes more sense for you to cheat than to try and stop others from cheating?

Jam it back in, in the dark.

So because the ability to exploit the system exists that means it's fair game? The dudes that made CS didn't have the ability to patch up hostage jumping abuses, does that mean it should become a legitimate strategy?

What's wrong with expecting people to try to at least uphold some sort of standard for keeping fair gameplay.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Haven't you ever cared about the principle of something? =\

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Because this one has a negative impact on our lives unlike other illegal things, probably.

How about if we call it something like a symbolic gesture? You know, we take away at least one of their customers and that makes it worth it.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?
