Meh, if that's the way they act to people it makes me wonder how they keep players. And it's not that some of them are good, it's that most of them are assholes, hell I've seen nicer people on 4chan.
The suggestions get me assaulted, insulted, but I posted the thing about the ripper and zombie mutation and not a single word about that.
Bunch of bloody wankers, not dwarvenly at all, or even elvenly.
See, that's the entire point. You're in HELL. Everyone is an asshole, and listening to the advice of random street mutants is totally idiotic if not down right suicidal. You might be taking some of it personally.
The entire game is your trial by fire, and it doesn't end until you quit. The corruption, hatred, paranoia, and fear extend well past the NPCs and backstory. If you can't kill the people that aggravate you then you may as well try to hurt them as much as possible, and believe me, there are ways to do it.
You don't get a reputation in HellMOO for helping the most newbies or bringing the most people into the game. You get a reputation for ripping off as many people as possible; tossing friend and foe alike into ravines, drinking and laughing at their futility as they desperately try to climb out of the freezing water. Then, just as your friends, corp-mates and enemies are all burning, drowning, in pieces, irradiated, or some combination of the four, you withdraw the entire sum of your corp's funds and leave.
Welcome to Hell! Hope you like
