Meta-gaming (Cheating) Ruining Immersion in Wow

[Baridorielor-malfurion (Baridorielor)]

@Kneeshooter-amanthul

But you insinuated that you agreed the person doesn’t care about their posts. Unless you (or this Thaozotl person) are telepathic, how can you possibly know that?

You do know Tigersan’s activity is open for everybody to read, right?

I would’ve told Thaozotl that he does seem to most likely care, if Tigersan didn’t made that many threads.

@Kneeshooter-amanthul

And why does it even matter?

When you’re making 13 threads over a week, let alone 3 in a single day, the quality of those threads tend to dip.

@Kneeshooter-amanthul

People often post a topic and then say something like “Convince me”, which is obviously meant to say I don’t really believe this. Do you berate them?

What you’ve said is Strawman.

@Kneeshooter-amanthul

Oh for goodness sake. People here accuse Blizzard of all sorts of things all the time, including things like lying, misleading and so on. Again, do you flag them for that? Or do you just cherrypick things to make a point?

Why do you care about this exactly? Didn’t you tell me “If you don’t like the posts, just ignore and mute them”, and yet you’re not doing just that?

If ya don’t like my posts, why not just ignore and mute them? Why not ignore and mute ANY post ya dislike instead of just complaining about something that doesn’t effect you personally then?

What, is Tigersan your friend of something?

@Kneeshooter-amanthul

Let me know where—

Nice strawman again. Skip.

@Kneeshooter-amanthul

You didn’t make a post, you made a comment,

…Literally the same thing.

@Kneeshooter-amanthul

with which I disagreed. Is anyone allowed to disagree with you without being called out for it?

You’re rather rather defensive over me telling you to keep that same energy.

Nobody has said you’re not allowed to disagree. Given your attitude however, you seem upset that people disagreed with OP on this and you’re doing everything you can to try to disprove them on them on that, or get angry that somebody dared flagging a potentially spam thread.

@Kneeshooter-amanthul

Feel free to do the same for me because we obviously have different ideas on how others should be treated on this forum.

If your idea is to attack people to defend somebody who is massively disagreed upon because of their (honestly not that good of a) reputation (whom they destoryed by their own), play the victim card when called out on your inconsistency, and only NOW practice what you preach when it’s convenient to you, while putting on a crocodile smile, showing how disingenuous you are and you trying to weasel yourself out of a situation you yourself put yourself in just to save face…

Then yes, we do have different ideas on how others should be treated on this forum.

Now what does the Invisible ChatGPT want?

@Aî-maladath

So what?

PBHT!

Are you seriously going to pretend that making 13 threads a week, or 3 threads a day, is somehow normal or not spammy even a little bit?

@Aî-maladath

Your opinion about what someone else should do is meaningless and you are attempting to defame the OP’s character, by asserting that somehow posting several threads is a criminal offense. Your entire assumption is irrelevant.

Also, nice bully tactic with trying to scare people into backing down from their opinions or etc.

I seen Electric bikes pose more of a threat then yours ever could.

Who cares about the number of posts anyone makes besides you.

I am not threatening anyone. Apparently you have become delusional.

[Sendryn-sentinels]

@Baridorielor-malfurion

This is his thrid thread he made today so… most likely not.

I’m pretty sure these are ChatGPT generated, as well.

[Baridorielor-malfurion (Baridorielor)]

@Aî-maladath

You’re doing a terrible job of not caring, if you are willing to seek out, not only people pointing out the number of threads this guy makes, but exclusively with me as well. You seem to care more about this then i do…

@Aî-maladath

I am not threatening anyone.

You insinuated that i think OP is a criminal and defaming him somehow. I can tell you right now, i do not think that.

And lying about you not threatening anybody won’t help, given i’ve quoted that, we can all see it. If you weren’t trying to meant to threaten (or just basicly bully) anybody, then you wouldn’t even bring it up at all, because nobody else was talking about crime until you have.

@Aî-maladath

Apparently you have become delusional.

I’m not the one who bought up defamation and criminals. That was on you.

@Aî-maladath

Hence is Defamation:

[Dojacàt-moon-guard]

@Tigersan-gilneas

The practice of meta-gaming is often frowned upon in many role-playing communities

In DND. WoW is far removed from DND.

@Tigersan-gilneas

So is Meta-gaming ruining immersion for Wow players?

If you wanna go into a raid with no foreknowledge of the encounters, you and those with your mindset are free to do so.

@Tigersan-gilneas

And is it by definition cheating?

No. Cheating is something like that one tabard that a player was mistakenly given that insta-kills bosses that was used back in Ulduar iirc.

[Sendryn-sentinels]

@Aî-maladath

Who cares about the number of posts anyone makes besides you.

Honestly, it’s not about the number of threads as much as it’s about the same pattern of using what sounds very much like ChatGPT generated topics that all sound the same using different trigger words to elicit reactions. Thus, people deem that as trolling. Especially when it’s seen multiple times a day by the same person. People around here tend to go:

Your malicious intent is clear. Regardless of how much you try to deny it.

[Baridorielor-malfurion (Baridorielor)]

@Sendryn-sentinels

I’m pretty sure these are ChatGPT generated, as well.

Ehh, maybe, could be? Idk tbh, and quite frankly, it wouldn’t exactly manner much as a couple of people here seem to think. Especially to those that they genuinely think it’s some sort of defamation of some sort, and worthy of bringing up talking about criminals or something.

Getting severe Deja Vu.

[Baridorielor-malfurion (Baridorielor)]

@Aî-maladath

Your malicious intent is clear.

Lol? What Malicious intent?

I’m not the one bullying people like you were doing by threatening them and misunderstanding what defamation is. Especially for something so trivial as “Oh they used ChatGPT”.

[Sendryn-sentinels]

@Aî-maladath

Your malicious intent is clear.

I mean… he did call out the OP. But I don’t feel he said anything malicious to them.

I urge you to read this to understand better:

Your explanation is very good. Peoples opinions are many on any subject. If you look at the replies in this thread you will see several with this assumption. But most of the replies do not reflect this concern. Opinions are subjective of course.

[Baridorielor-malfurion (Baridorielor)]

@Sendryn-sentinels

To put context on this… Someobdy has said this…

@Thaozotl-farstriders

Do you actually care about any of the topics you post or are you just farming activity?

And i’ve taken a look and i’ve said that he most likely not.

Emphasis on most likely, implying that it’s not entirely conclusive.

@Baridorielor-malfurion

This is his thrid thread he made today so… most likely not.

In the last 7 days, he made like 13 threads.

Whats also funny is Askton also somewhat responded to this, and have pointed out that OP doesn’t participate much.

…Yet somehow, Kneeshooter and especially AI taken an issue with me, and not the fact there’s people disagreeing with them. Getting weirdly defensive over it.

[Qamaits-darrowmere (Qamaits)]

Say what you want about Tiger’s intentions with the threads he makes but you can’t deny they are highly polarizing.

[Sendryn-sentinels]

@Aî-maladath

But most of the replies do not reflect this concern. Opinions are subjective of course.

You’ll find that in every thread. Not everyone is going to call out trolling, they’ll just comment on the subject. I did when I came in here the first time, even knowing the OP’s pattern. Some choose to call it out, others just take the bait, still others will comment with a more calm demeanor. Everyone’s different!

But the point remains that there are people who are very skeptical of the OP’s intentions. I just wanted to clear up as to why that is.

Not to be that guy, but… i also made this comment/post on this earlier as well.

@Baridorielor-malfurion

What Hpellispis is most likely saying, your complaints are pretty generic sounding that it sounded like a computer wrote it. And essentially saying “This isn’t a problem, and you’re not the first person to complain about this.”.

[Aî-maladath]

@Qamaits-darrowmere

Tiger’s intentions with the threads he makes but you can’t deny they are highly polarizing.

Most of the threads in this forum become a battlefield because of the trolls that make false accusations, inflammatory remarks. And derail the thread, Flag it. Just malicious
toxic behavior. Tigersan is by comparison harmless.

[Qamaits-darrowmere (Qamaits)]

To be fair most of the threads in GD are started to evoke strong emotions.

[Aî-maladath]

@Sendryn-sentinels

Understand. But there is no real way of knowing what a posters intentions really are. People will guess at what someones intentions are. But they really don’t know.
Bottom line is the forum moderators. If a topic thread is not taken down. Then it’s obvious
the thread is legit and the OP is not a troll. Regardless of what a forum visitor or regular Forum member thinks.

[Akston-area-52]

@Aî-maladath

Implications of false accusations: The above implies that the OP uses Chatdpt. Or is a chat-bot.

Hence is Defamation:
Defamation describes something very mean and completely deliberate, essentially a false accusation against someone or an attack on a person’s good reputation. The terms libel and slander — written or spoken lies about a person, group, or business — both fall under the category of defamation.

The OP called everyone cheaters that uses “meta gaming”.

Please call people out for “defamation” consistently.

@Aî-maladath

Your opinion about what someone else should do is meaningless and you are attempting to defame the OP’s character

…the irony is amazing. The lack of self awareness is just. Wow.

@Aî-maladath

Who cares about the number of posts anyone makes besides you.

You seem to care. You are doing the same exact thing you are accusing others of doing.

[Aî-maladath]

@Akston-area-52

You are doing the same exact thing you are accusing others of doing.

Your opinion is based on not fully understanding that the OP was asking a question:
