There are probably a lot of people who take out their real-life problems on people in CF. There are also people who are assholes (or rather, continually roles characters who are intentionally assholes) on purpose, because they actually enjoy it.

There are also plenty of people who partial loot, full loot, partial sacrifice, full sacrifice, etc. for perfectly legitimate reasons.

It's worth noting that in the case of the first group, the staff has stepped in before.

I promise if you roll a character who does nothing but kill anyone and everyone possible and full loot them every time just to be as much of a cunt as you can, an Immortal will punish you (either IC or OOC).

Using looting / sacrificing as a "deterrent" isn't a new tactic. It's a dumb one, I think, but it's a valid tactics nonetheless. It's allowed. Get over it. Whether or not that's REALLY why Shura (or anyone else) did what they did to you is something only they really know, but nonetheless, if someone wants to punish you in spades for doing something they don't like, that's their right.

If your argument is that "the ability to full sac" is what's wrong with CF, you're apparently in disagreement with the people who design and maintain CF. You can do it because they want you to be able to. If you want to have a level-headed, objective discussion about why that's a bad choice, go ahead and start one. You're off to a bad start, though.

The numbers are lower than they were quite a while ago, but I'm pretty sure they're up over the past few months. I don't think the number of "pricks" is up (whatever that means) so much as in a smaller player base, their negative influence is felt more.

CF has always had people who play selfishly and/or without regard for the enjoyment of others.

I don't personally like that idea.

Based on how the game currently works, I think it's fair to say that either: A) the staff does not think the problem you're inferring exists in the first place, or B) that solution isn't a very good one.
