how is he being opportunistic?
trying to get me and rtp to clash again because potentially we are both town and it means a scum elim is less likely. slimy tactics, but GC plays to win no matter what.
gimme a snap BM-read btw?
don't really see it. i skipped pretty much all your and rtp posts from last night because i was not in the headspace to read that, but i did actually go back to see, and threatening policy is like... not very nice?
(also i see there's stuff potentially brewing rn and i'd ask you to Not escalate)
snap bm-read bm probtown as i've said before?
it wasn't a threat - it was a commitment. I have been in dozens of games here where i get talked to like shit and I respond in kind and it ends badly and in a way which is really harmful to everyone's enjoyment of the game. I'm trying to be more disciplined nowadays with an approach something like:
A. Just try and ignore it.
B. If it's becoming a significant issue for the game, call it out and ask for it to stop.
C. If it continues, try and detach from the situation.
I'm unapologetic about the fact I play mafia to have fun, and if anybody is being a jerk and won't desist, I'll factor that in to my decisions about elimming players. I suppose "policy" isn't the right phrase, as it implies something about the player, rather than their behaviour.
I'm disappointed there isn't more of a supportive culture on MS about people standing up for themselves, but that's by the by. From my perspective, and as is quite apparent from RTP's gracious apology, the issue was not caused by me and I responded in a calm way to diffuse the situation. Ultimately, I don't want to see personal shit, grudges or anything else unrelated to the game, in the game.
