nah you're missing my point tbh.. i mean balanced like, not too pretty, not too ugly, not too smart, not too dumb, not too slutty, not too prudish, etc. rather than looking for a perfect woman that's like super smart, and super sexy, and super etc. or one that is weighted in one area, super pretty but super dumb for example. just a nice balance.
same for the game, balance meaning like, not too strict on the rules, but not too lapse on the rules.
not too weighted for pvp, not too weighted for pvm.
not a flood of items and resources, but not a drought either.
that sorta thing.
staff can do what they want tbf.. they dont actually owe us anything, if they want to take a break they are literally entitled to it... our fun is basically playing in their fun.. pretty sure they're not actually making any money out of it; or if they do it goes back into the game.
i mean they still reap what they sow, so if the server goes bad no-one will play and it will ruin their fun as well. but that's the motivation, not obligation...
the buying items thing is such a big no no because of that really, it's cheeky more than anything for people to profiting from their work, when they aren't. there's also legal issues if money gets involved, but i dont know a lot about that.. just that it's a can of worms. that's why it's only done by donations if at all.
nothing wrong with players killing a monster and respawning it, and the bot dying.. it's fair to say you shouldn't play to grief other players, but other players doing illegal stuff shouldn't stop legit players playing the legit game.
and as for george carlin's thing on women.. eeeuugh... his generation does not massively apply these days tbh.
plus im kinda sick of people being like "oh you're a woman, it must be tough getting raped and beaten all the time". like.. what women are you meeting?

i bet you have 'i've seen shit' eyes
honestly tho, i do not live in the world of rape and woman beating... women do get hit sometimes.. but.. quite often it's not one sided.. i dunno.. it's like they believe the films of angelina jolie beating up 4 green berrets...
generally women get hit cos they start shit, but they get hit hard because they're women.. men get in fights all the frikkin time, it's hard to go on a night out and not get in a fight. men dont start shit anywhere near as much, because they appreciate you may end up getting smacked. women will start shit believing they are invulnerable, and they only really get hit when the guy has gone berzerk from the lass pushing her invulnerability beyond breaking..
im not claiming to be an authority on this. i just dont believe that being a woman automatically makes you a victim.
amd i dont believe men are automatically abusers either.
like arbitrary numbers here, but lets say you're a 100lb guy, and you start shouting at and pushing, insulting, trying to punch, etc - a 300lb guy. what would happen? a hell of a lot sooner than if it were a 100lb woman. so... where is the sexism?
just the 100lb guy knows he'll get smacked, so he doesn't start shit.
woman be like "naah, he wont do anything"
not all women, just some are assholes, same as men.
i could be wrong like, could all be the same. all men assholes, all women saintly victims. i doubt it tho.
like take that woman on death row for example; is she an asshole or is she a victim?
.... .... maybe she's an asshole because she's a victim? i dunno.
how did all like spice girls, and "girl power", sexual liberation etc; turn into "we've all been abused"?
