Of all tyrannies,a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

To be fair it's an older game in the Marathon forum and wasn't super memorable to me either, short of getting carried by you as my scumbuddy and getting overwhelmed by the game speed.

To be fair I haven't played the game and trying to understand half of what your saying is difficult. The other half is all context clue driven. Still makes it a pain, and I don't want to go through the hasslt of asking what you mean every single time (such as with posts like this one).

I play Isaac if you want any help translating.

I think they're trying to say here that people are voting them because of uncertainty about their slot than an actual solid read based on what they've posted.

That being said, despite being able to understand most of what Keeper is trying to say, I don't feel like they've posted as much content as they allude to.

dude, they are a hardclaimed gimmick alt. It's not that they are "hiding" its just this alts gimmick play and those have always been around and you know it. This "overusing gimmicks is a scumtell" is very black and white.

most gimmick alts don't just gimmick they also post thoughts between gimmick. This is using gimmick account as a shield and you know it.

Nero, I don't mind gimmicks, but Keeper has really had a lot of nothing posts. Is there any real reason to go to bat for them right now? You're drawing an associative between Fire and Keeper based on the reason for voting, but do you see anything scummy about Fire or town about Keeper individually? Like, at all?

Like I never said "anyone using a gimmick is scum always" im saying "anyone using a gimmick to hide their thoughts is scum because thats what scum do to protect themselves and use the gimmick as shield"
this isn't black and white. This comes from dozens and dozens of games experience.
