I am always amazed at the human capacity to imitate the vulture, and this thread is a shining example of it. If anything this advances my misanthropy to unthinkable levels.
One of the finest quotes in the thread, most certainly. :D
By this point, I have learned never to underestimate humanity's capacity for stupidity, or the ignorance of mob mentality.
While on a smaller scale here, it's the same kind of garbage that started the Witch Trials long ago, or even refused the idea that the earth wasn't the center of the universe. :P
Burn 'em all and sort it out later, I guess.
Realistically, if someone was on that list claiming they cheat, it wouldn't matter how good their argument to the contrary was, would it? There will always be people posting with this simple logic train:
"You = list"
"List = cheat"
"You = cheat...!!!!"
It may be all cheaters on the list, it may be half true, it may even be true for all but one single person. Unfortunately, no one has that information right now, so it's easiest to lump everyone together, close your eyes and ears, and open your mouth, I suppose.
It's really sad that no one, not one single person, has a defense against that.... no matter what they say. The list did the judging for many people here, and that's all the evidence they will ever need. :/
It's not new behavior, but it sure is saddening... it gets frustrating to see it time and time again.
Even if the list turned out to be 100% true, it's still disappointing behavior. :/ Shame that it won't change.
