@Timcast Do something on the Bully Hunters nonsense.

2018-04-13 17:37:08 UTC  

I don't understand the response the Bully Hunters thing is getting. I mean, yeah, it's silly, it's cringe, but it's been getting a pretty exaggerated reaction to it all things considered.

2018-04-13 17:44:12 UTC  

i was thinking about the bully hunters thing but i havent followed ti enough

2018-04-13 17:45:46 UTC  

oh right that one

2018-04-13 17:45:53 UTC  

that's a doozy

2018-04-13 17:46:12 UTC  

i wonder who started that mess up

2018-04-13 17:46:17 UTC  

If you get harrassed/talked down to during CS:GO, you can 'hire' a 'Bully Hunter' to come into your game and take them out.

2018-04-13 17:46:29 UTC  

I'm not sure if an exchange of money is involved or not, though.

2018-04-13 17:47:37 UTC  

I'm curious if such a system can be abused, or even be used in place of people who would otherwise resort to 'swatting.'

2018-04-13 17:48:02 UTC  

I know that seems a bit out of nowhere, but it is a curiosity. lol

2018-04-13 17:49:11 UTC  

What happens if the Bully Hunter fails? What happens if the Bully Hunter turns around and begins to 'bully' the person who called them? What if the other person hires a Bully Hunter in response?

2018-04-13 17:51:31 UTC  

what if the bully hunter ends up being bullied to the point of having him hire a bully hunter 😛

2018-04-13 17:51:52 UTC  

bullyhunter-ception

2018-04-13 17:51:57 UTC  

What if two parties hired Bully Hunters on each other? Would the two Bully Hunters have to fight to the death?

2018-04-13 17:52:31 UTC  

what if the bully hunter gets banned from the server

2018-04-13 17:52:42 UTC  

For harrassment.

2018-04-13 17:53:08 UTC  

posted something related in <#398973785426100234> , as I can't post images here

2018-04-13 17:58:25 UTC  

We need some common sense Bully Hunter control laws.

2018-04-13 18:12:38 UTC  

all i need to know about that bullyhunters thing is that someone posted this: https://www.youtube.com/embed/iXhQww6NYd4?start=20&autoplay=1&auto_play=true as the "theme song" for it.

2018-04-13 18:55:54 UTC  

And the fact that the 'demonstration' they gave involved setting it up, including a fake 'harrasser' and a fake 'victim'

2018-04-13 19:14:45 UTC  

i mean what are they gona do? the bully hunter joins the game and then what?

2018-04-13 19:14:49 UTC  

they play the game?

2018-04-13 19:14:56 UTC  

what kind of punishment is that lmao

2018-04-13 19:16:07 UTC  

but as it turns out its just a steelseries promotional thing i think

2018-04-13 19:16:29 UTC  

for there brand new daddy issues headset line

2018-04-13 19:16:36 UTC  

isnt it multiple of them joining and then ganging up on the offender?

2018-04-13 19:16:58 UTC  

someone on the steelseries marketing team drank the coolaid and thought this was a good idea

2018-04-13 19:17:32 UTC  

falko, there are systems in place against that sort of thing in most games

2018-04-13 19:18:01 UTC  

like you cant outnumber the other team too much, it wont allow you to join the team with too many people already

2018-04-13 19:18:24 UTC  

but even then, all they can do is play the game

2018-04-13 19:18:50 UTC  

if a "bully" is being hunted, he can use that to gain an advantage

2018-04-13 19:19:04 UTC  

people hunting bullies dont capture points

2018-04-13 19:19:17 UTC  

and if they dont they are just playing the game

2018-04-13 19:20:56 UTC  

you assume they want to win and not just be massive bullies

2018-04-13 19:21:08 UTC  

its irrelevant

2018-04-13 19:21:35 UTC  

even if they are massive bullies, the bully being bullied can just use that to distract one or more members of the opposing team to gain an advantage

2018-04-13 19:22:14 UTC  

so what if he gets killed all the time, he is distracting the opposing team members

2018-04-13 19:22:52 UTC  

yeah... the first part is the important one if they dont care about winning

2018-04-13 19:23:36 UTC  

if you dont aim to win you lose

2018-04-13 19:23:42 UTC  

and then the bully wins

2018-04-13 19:24:17 UTC  

but he got bullied while doing so, which apparently is the point
