Consider the process by which the Why Do old aberoth player hate us steam ppl post comes to be: The author has multiple, terrible complexes and feelings, such as, "Why am I poor?"; "Why do I get PKed?"; "Why can I not make friends?" His mind and body constantly are pressured, from both within and without.

Those pent-up grudges become endless feelings of hatred toward society. They become rage.

However, the largest source of rage is his own personal cowardice.

He is poor because he lacks the skill with which to earn money. He can not make friends because he lacks charisma. But the process of seeing this truth and acknowledging his own incompetence requires quite a bit of courage. No human beings, regardless of who they might be, want to look directly at their own shortcomings.

At this point, the reddit complainer projects his cowardice onto the outside world.

He creates a fictious "enemy" outside of himself.

Enemy. My enemy. Society's enemy.

"Because an enemy conspires to do evil, I cannot find happiness. Because of this conspiracy, I cannot make friends. That's right! This is all because of the olderoth players. Because the olderoth players are scheming away out there, I can't find happiness. Damn you, olderoth players! I won't forgive you!"

Truthfully, this kind of thinking also inconveniences old players.

All reddit complainers need to look a little closer at reality.

"Enemies" don't exist externally. "Evil" does not exist externally. One has to assume blame oneself for being a worthless person.

It's definitely not a conspiracy by old players, nor one by new players, and - obvious as this may be - it's not a plan by Simple. Before all else, one needs to keep this fact firmly in mind while playing the game.

Even so...

A tiny percentage of people actually have stumbled upon a real secret society that chooses who succeeds and who fails. There is, in fact, one person who witnessed with his own eyes a group that exists, at this very moment, in the most extreme secrecy.

Who is this person?

It's me.
