Marty's Brilliant Observations, 24th of March 2008
For some time I've been wondering why some people tend to use this game as some sort of verbal fight club. And I'm not talking about the usual "You bought my boyfriend!" or "Don't touch my friend again or I'll kill you" - or the random bad name dropping. I mean, I have been called the most horrible things in this game, just because I happened to buy a pet who "belonged" to someone who was VERY fond of him. But this is not what I'm talking about now.
It seems to me that some users deliberately try to get into a verbal fight. They buy a pet and insult the previous owner ("You're too ugly to have such a cute pet, so I rescued him from you"). Or sometimes just some bitch slapping and spitting the previous owner in the face. So it must be more than just a pet fight sometimes. What is it then?
Marty's Brilliant Theory about Internet aggressions.
I think some people just don't have enough verbal fights in their everyday life, so they use this game as an aggression toilet. Maybe they don't have enough stupid neighbours, enemies (or friends), parents, siblings, husbands or wives to fight with, so they just HAVE to get some of those aggressions out somewhere - and a lot of it ends up in here. I think it's kinda sad actually.
I think someone should develop a Verbal Fight Application. Here's the idea, and there's no copyright. (No Facebook - there is NO copyright - unless you wanna pay me 3 million dollars, then MAYBE!):
The Verbal Fight Applikation works like a tennis tournament. You move around to different opponents, and you insult eachother like there's no tomorow. The more bad words, insults, threats and whatever you can throw at your opponent, the better. And there's the possibility for everyone else to give points to the best insults, - so that's how you earn points. After 12 hours or something, the match is over, and the winner takes all the points. And then you move on to your next opponent - and so on. This is just a rough idea, - needs some development of course.
Instead of buying cute gifts to eachother, you can buy really nasty stuff and throw at the other users. A rotten apple, a dog shit, a pile of very old eggs, - anything disgusting. You use your insult points to buy the gifts, and the more disgusting the gifts are, the more expensive they will be.
I think this future applikation could take away some of the aggressions from other applikations - like this one.
But this is just a thought of course. :)
