So using a broken mechanism in the game to claim Fafnir/Nidhogg isn't the same as using a broken mechanism to claim whatever a BST is fighting? What the fuck are you thinking Vang? If removing the flies .dat files STILL KEPT the flies around, just with no graphic, you'd be right, but it doesn't. Again, fucked up coding on Square's fault. You're abusing a system either. Notice I never even mentioned botting, so why did you? Botting is indeed not comparable to either of those methods.
Theres a big difference between MMOs and Game tourney's, and that is theres nothing to win in an MMO. Virtual items aren't comparable to real life fame and money. It's two seperate ideas. Getting a shit load of Rare/Exclusive gear will not get you anything else beyond that. Beating a bunch of pros at Street Fighter will. Apples and Oranges. You don't "Play to Win" when you're on the couch playing with your buddys are you? Fuck no, unless otherwise I guess I've confused the term "game" with "work." If you aren't having fun playing an MMO for $50 + $20/each Expansion + $12.50-$15/month subscription, why are you sinking so much money into it? Theres also no such as a Video Game Addiction. Thats such a brash use of the word, it makes me sigh whenever someone says. Theres a big difference between losing track of time, and being physically addicted to something.
Anyway, back ontopic. Had they just left Deniro to die, there'd be no arguement, regardless of the fucked up system Square has in place with Charm. Their mistake was keeping him alive, that was their fault. It's not their responsibility to see that he lives, but they are at fault for capitalizing on an issue Square's too fucking retarded to fix.
