@meroviel sagte in I just cannot calm down - stop making the Kraken spawn on lvl.5 Emissarys:
Ahoy!

Not that I would ever find this people.
I wrote one of the famous "what if" scenarios.
What?
What? :D
Do you think a game cannot make someone psychotic?
Or wake something psychotic in people that is not already there?
It can.
And it will.
" People should fear the wrath of a usually peaceful man. "
I don't think im choleric.
Or not in control of myself usually.
But what happened that day was a fantastic shitshow 10 out of 10 on my expense.
.
Around a month ago or so I logged in and attacked a Reapers rank.5 brigantine btw.
° with a smaller Ship
&
° they hoisted the "PvP faction Emissary"
I did it with a filthy lvl.1 Reapers Emissary and without loot.
But at least I tried to bring something to the table.
So that means they should have nothing to be offended for, does it?
Still: One of this guys was sooooooooooo toxic, at the first opportunity I was hit by a hotmic in my homelanguage (German) and wooooow he didn't hold back at all. :D
Called me all kinds of things, threatened, insulted and omg was he salty.
I had a PvP break for like 8 months or so.
Already forgot what SoThieves does to people.
But I was really surprised.
And the odds were all in their favour too.
Yet he was toxic as hell.
Why?
Hah - well, now I know why.
But I had the Kraken spawn on me and make 2vs2 basically into a 2vs4 for a moment and we died to it.
.
This is a serious matter gamedesign and other wannabe-reasonable arguments and logic will not work or appease those burning with justified rage.
Yes its just a game but at the same time it is not.
And Rare MUST make this game as embarassingly "fair" as possible.
They have an obligation to!
Otherwise... well... lets say no one has an obligation either to not carry that grudge around and vent it... elsewhere and in another scenario.
Not like anybody cares right?
No one wants to be responsible for anything, never. :D
As I said it was just a "what if" scenario and I am thankful that fate had not tempted with knowledge as to where to find my tormentors.
Me and others "sucking" it up is nothing to be taken-for-granted.
It won't make us more mature if we do.
And it won't make us more infantile if we don't.
Some things just must be avenged.
Otherwise the hatred festers and will turn into something much much more sinister and dangerous.

So to end this "rant(?)/answer" of mine with a memorable story.
I have done something very mean and hurtful already irl to "something" to finally be free of this desire to hurt, destroy and get revenge - already!
What that was and to whom or what I did it, I won't write.
Most possibly not a smart thing to do right? :)
I think people should realize that even a videogame is not a closed room in itself.
The entire world, this entire planet and everything sentient on it, is - if nothing else - just a counterpart that exists with myself as the only thing that relates to it.
That means everything is one and ultimately shares the same quality to be hated or despised by me - even if just fleetingly - if push comes to shove.
We live in a society.
Or we live on a irritating, wrath incuring planet - that only exists to make someone very very angry temporarily.
I am not part of the "outrage culture".
But I can totally relate to the feeling of getting back at this cocky, unworthy world for making one livid.
Its okay if I am not "liked" or "understood" for these words or logic.
Means only one thing in the end.
" Your own particular event in your life has just not occured yet that will make you want to set the entire planet ablaze. Just to 'get even' with the unworthy things, events or situations that should have never dared to as much as occur. "
Why can bad stuff... just not happen? =)
Why must I feel these feelings?
Ahhh, who knows.
But I know one thing. My anger or suffering... will not just be my own.
