Every player, except Prism.
And it doesn't even begin to factor in the subjectivity of my claim to be a very important part of the game.
The simple fact is, Prism is ignoring me, and is either an alt or someone who has mastered the old perception of me that veteran players used to take, to ignore me if for no other reason on policy alone, because surely the words of mastina, the wallposter mastina, the infamous mastina, is someone not worth paying attention to, who says a lot of meaningless shit and nothing of importance. That's the attitude Prism is displaying and that's the attitude old veterans would display to me, but it's NOT the attitude a new player displays to me.
Have you considered, for even
one second
, that the reason I and apparently a lot of veteran players do this is because there are real, tangible benefits to doing so?
I
feast
off of players like you as mafia. I would be eating you fucking alive if I was scum and encouraging you all the way, because at the end of your tunnel made of 70,000 words I got so little benefit I earnestly feel I would have been better off with nothing. This is not a feeling you want a town player to have about your posts,
ever
. My posts were not simply to put you down for the sake of it, they were to outline a clear goalpost that would lead to me being more willing to work with you: make whatever posts you make at least somewhat relevant or worth reading, and have them be useful, and don't make me dig through 10 paragraphs to find
the
single useful sentence. You have categorically failed in this the entire way, and what is the response you've gotten as a result?
The evaluation that your posts do more harm than good for me. When someone who loves and adores mafia, someone who's
not even lazy in their play
(and since you respect Nacho's opinion so much, you can have him verify that one), actually makes the conscious decision that they will get more benefit out of rereading an ISO of Monokuma or Gin N Tonic for the third time that week instead of reading your posts for a second or even first time, the problem is with you.
P-Edit:
@Fate:
I'll take "Why is Prism scum?" for 500, Fate as my first category. Let's tango.
