They must be planning a false flag and this is the patsy that will take the blame for dropping the ball.

I spent like $2000 playing Star Trek Online. Lockbox keys, lifetime sub, all sorts of ships, items, and boosts. They introduced Mark XIV equipment with a gambling-based crafting system. You could spend dilithium (which you could buy with $) to have a chance to upgrade your equipment.

The straw that broke me? Their shitty customer service. I wanted to gear up an alt and give them the Jem'Hadar battleship with the Jem'hadar attack ship so they could launch the attack ships from it as fighters, which you could do if you had both. Problem was some ships were account bound, and some ships were character bound, and I lost track of which was which. I ended up claiming the box for one of them on the wrong character. Easy fix, right? Well not every MMO is run to the same standard as Blizzard. Craptic absolutely refused to help me. So I cut ties.

It was after that, when I experienceced withdrawal, that I read about gambler's fallacy and sunken cost fallacy and I really analyzed why it hurt so much to leave behind my addiction. I never went back, because I know that whole game is run like a casino. They do everything they can to hook you in.

It's actually gone very well. Lots of preorders. I saw videos of people lining up outside gamestop locations this morning.

It's almost guaranteed to be in the top 10 of best selling consoles.

35,000 pounds of $100 bills would be $1,587,573,295 a year. Rich bastard.

I'm not concerned if they are using chats for AI training data. In fact, I expect them to continue improving their chatbots. If they were to sell our chat logs to a third party, and those logs went public, then I expect it would quickly torpedo their platform. Even in that case, my account doesn't have my real name anywhere. I gave them an incorrect birth date. I haven't linked any social media to my account. I keep everything set to private. If the logs were to go public, and people could say "Look! This user said all these things!" they still wouldn't know who I was.

Maybe the FBI or NSA could track me down, but talking sexy things to a chatbot isn't illegal. In fact, it may very well become more commonplace. Someday we will likely have androids with AI personalities serving us in our homes.

Nope. I have never cried over a celebrity or a stranger. It's strange to see so many people who have. Isn't that a parasocial connection? The person you cried for never even knew you existed. You're hurting for no good reason.
