how vindictive do you need to be to ban the user for having a higher upvote score than your entire team and it happened twice. so you can imagine how they felt as a "forward facing" developer...

SultanOfSuave: So, I was correct then, in sentiment at least? You spent 12 years unable to part with something despite loathing it.
yep.
the developers just kept steering into the ice berg.


their kernel driver makes me distrust them more.
because people have found workarounds long ago.

the honest players get the raw end.
all of the disadvantages, over some cheating script monkey.

I guess those kinds of games really are like smoking. It's bad for you, but you just can't quit..

SultanOfSuave: Can you name a tool, concept, or other designed for good that wasn't used for ill, personal gain, or that caused suffering by humanity, or didn't have to be safeguarded to prevent that ill? Personally, I cannot.
Exactly so. We always destroy that which we build.

Any stories on how these games have saved lives?
Oddly (given the issues) theres plenty surrounding smoking.

Haven't heard many positive stories about MOBAs. Mostly deep depression, rage and career failure comes with playing those games. Never touched them myself. I tried LoL once at a LAN-party many years ago, but I didn't even know how to attack.
