It's been long enough that I'll change it.

Quote from: Thomas Paine
To argue with a man who has renounced the use and authority of reason, and whose philosophy consists in holding humanity in contempt, is like administering medicine to the dead, or endeavoring to convert an atheist by scripture.

Disagree, they learn from their mistake and know that they will be punished harder if they fail and have a lower probability of screwing up this time.

Leaning into disagree, you just have to take precautions.

Completing a jail sentence should mean said person is allowed to freely participate in society again, so, disagree here :)

Quote from: Phantom
Unknown to most but the insane and the mystics, Tarran is actually Earth itself, as Earth is sentient like that planet in Avatar. Originally Earth used names such as Terra on the internet, but to protect it's identity it changed letters, now becoming the Tarran you know today.
Quote from: Ze Spy
Tarran has the "Tarran Bug", a bug which causes the affected character to repeatedly hit teammates while dual-wielding instead of whatever the hell he is shooting at.

We may not be as brave as Gryffindor, as willing to get our hands dirty as Hufflepuff, or as devious as Slytherin, but there is nothing, nothing more dangerous than a little too much knowledge and a conscience that is open to debate

See, I just can't find myself giving an opinion for a generalization.

Financial support, emo/people support.   What they were in for.  Mental stability.  Were they stewing in a facility housing a good portion of violent lifers/death penalty people?

Whole range of stuff you gotta consider.

Wait, you mean criminals, right? Because in a different context I might've voted for neutral.

I dunno.  It could apply to criminals and also getting your arse saved from certain doom.

There is no clarification.
