Don’t call me “dear”. I’m not your child.
You don’t seem to understand, but only because you have an agenda you need to push.
You can call it whatever you want when you intentionally remove the value of a player’s possessions. But If the same piece that had gold value last week now has none, there’s really no difference. You have deliberately made them poorer by removing the value of their possessions.
Is that better if we called it “theft” or something more along that line?
Just stop being pedantic. It doesn’t work.
