It's not my problem that you have comprehensive problems, but, anyway, I will explain it again, so you (finally) get it too.
- I see Entropia Universe as a game (entertainment), not as a job, so
I am OK with paying a certain amount of money (probably up to $20 per month would be what I consider fair, which is in line with the cost of most other [susbscription based] MMOs)
- I think we all should pay for our entertainment in this game, so
I DON'T want to profit from other people's losses, but I DON'T want other people to profit from my losses
- Now, obviously,
if this Marxist conception of mine "from each according to his ability, to each according to his needs" is not possible and
someone has to win and someone else to lose, then I prefer to be me the one profiting, instead of someone else
-
In terms of TT results, I always lost money (92-93% TT results, 98-99% after MU)
-
In terms of deposits vs withdraws, my balance is positive though, for the simple reasons that I made some money from additional sources (sweating, healing, accidental trading, etc)
-
I have no problem with people making profits from involving in the ECONOMY part from the RCE (providing services, trading, etc)
-
I hate (or at least dislike)
ubers, grinders and generally anyone making TT profits, because I think that hurts the game and because I consider they are stealing my money
-
I like EU and MA and I never said anything bad about them
-
The only thing I blame MA for is allowing said ubers / grinders to make TT profits and steal my money
-
That's why, 'till they patch this loophole / exploitative behavior (in my vision),
I will vote with my wallet and
stop depositing
TL; DR: The only thing I dislike and have a problem with is other people, except MindArk, getting my money and that's why I don't deposit anymore.
So, I think that I didn't contradict myself with anything.
Thank you for your concern about my well-being, but I assure you I'm really fine and I'm in a great shape and I'm actually having a great time both in the game and here on forums. And, unlike you, being 17 actually means that I'm a billionaire in spare time so I can easily afford to spend a few hours in the game or on the forums, as long as that is entertaining for me.
Also, since my play style is pretty much single-player mode, I simply don't care if I alienate some (or even all) players; is not like I ever interact with them in the game anyway.
I have exactly six people I care about in the whole game (and they know who they are - they are the people with whom I talk on a daily basis both in-game and on Skype); rest of you are (both in game and here on forums), for me, simply NPCs that can (or can not) provide me additional entertainment or educational value, and from whose presence I can actually take advantage and profit (not in terms of money - lol).
And, actually, generate hostility from multiple sources, deal with it and train yourself to not care about what random people say to you (so growing a tougher skin) is actually a very good skill to have for real life. So I find it highly useful to learn this lesson on a random Internet forum, from people that I don't know or care about and where, eventually, if things would get over what I can handle, I can easily cut the plug, back off and move on to a different activity. So yeah, every time when you're attacking or insulting me and I manage to not get affected by it, but just smile, I consider that I'm getting a bit better at this. In the past, mean people made me quit activities I used to like, "crying like a little girl", with just a few remarks; now I can stand a few dozen people hating, attacking and insulting me, all that while actually smiling and having fun about it, so yeah, I think I went a long way and grow up a lot in this regard.
So, as far as it concerns me, you're doing your job of both training myself for dealing with hostility, as well as for entertaining me, so please keep up the good work and carry on with it.
Cheers!
