> Now tell me: in the case of Nepenthe and Istendil, wasn't there No -- or at least no more than anyone else who doesn't pretend to go through Ofcol for the first time with every single character. Should I be proud of knowing that much about where items are? No, not really. It has zero practical application in my life. I retain useless knowledge. Beware me at Trivial Pursuit. > I'm sure it is not needed to go anywhere when you can just Well, yeah. Fuck, why PK anyone?

Seriously, do you cheat at solitaire? I think I might have when I was like five, but I don't now. That might seem like a preposterous analogy to you, and it is, but not the way you think. I'm not that good at solitaire. Imagine one of those 10 kilometer fun run/walks against cancer or leukemia or something. If an Olympic marathon runner (let's say someone who won the right to race but didn't take a medal, just so we don't get bogged down in a stupid 'who is the greatest' pissing contest) entered one of those things, would you accuse him of using steroids or other unethical methods to win? What the hell would be the point? Probably there aren't more than a dozen people in the crowd who are even any competition at all for him, and anyway, it's only for fun. > Do they spend more time on it than mortal players? Person for person? Almost always yes. > Do they love mud more than other people playing it? I would think by definition the answer would be yes.
