libertine 351 Posted October 29, 2012 Ran across a couple articles today and thought i'd post one. To take what might be a several months of effort by another DayZ player and blink it out of existence is a horrible (or ignorant, aka stupid) act, to do it to a 60 population server i would have said was unbelievable before i saw it happen. I personally had been killed around 25 times this way and i didn't feel like I even played that much.http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-15386740You will have to work with these people in later life and they may be your boss, since selfish corporations like someone who is willing to crack a whip, not to mention many companies are run by this type of person.

OrLoK 16185 Posted October 29, 2012 (edited) Hello thereI would say more sociopathic rather than pure psyco, but the net just tends to draw out "the real us"Not good IMHO, not good at all.rgdsLoK Edited October 29, 2012 by orlok Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The_Man 393 Posted October 29, 2012 That is quite a stretch Dr. Wikipedia. It is probable that you are insulting many of the people just getting a laugh out of how upset people get in a clearly buggy game. If anything, these hackers teach me not to get so obsessed with a video game. Just my opinion. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The_Man 393 Posted October 29, 2012 I think your thinking of the hollywood definition of psychopath. Im talking about the clinical definition.If anything, I think the Hollywood definition would be more appropriate here. Calling someone you've never met or at the very least spoken to a "psychopath" in the clinical definition seems a bit much don't you think? Maybe you have a PhD in Psychology that I don't know about so you could be right. I think it is hard to say such a thing. How do you know if they aren't Sociologists that are taking notes during these "tests" they are running? They could literally be anyone! Perhaps Thunderdome is a rogue social experiment. Of course, my assumption of this is just as absurd as your assumption. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hank_scorpio 41 Posted October 29, 2012 I wouldnt say their crazy at all id say its just called being an asshole . They do it for shits and giggles and because they can . Its useually just a kid on a power trip or some snot nosed teen with daddy's money buying hacks . It is just a game after all remember that there are hackers in every game and they will exploit games anyway they can it just so happens dayz can be exploited more I don't think that makes them psychopaths . Like playing any other games with hackers you wouldn't call them psychopaths just a bunch of assholes with no skill . Just my 2 cents Hank Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SaviorSELF 1 Posted October 29, 2012 Psychopath: A person with an antisocial personality disorder, manifested in aggressive, perverted, criminal, or amoral behavior without empathy or remorse... So anyone care to elaborate where this guy is wrong in his statement? Perfectly describes the behavior of hackers.. Oh wait, actually describes a majority of DayZ players ;P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nano27 15 Posted October 29, 2012 Psychopaths on the internet =/= psychopaths in the real world.On the internet, most of us are psychopaths.Just look at your search history (if you aren't an internet schizophrenic and delete your history on exit). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
