Yeah man, I do not want to read how I am going to steal someone's cancer treatment fund in real time. Can we get a script to replace the flavor texts?

A few days after I had my phone stolen, I did a pickpocket on a cyclist I believe and stole a phone.

 

I nearly threw my new phone away in anger because of the flavor text...

 

Freaking hell, still mad a month later. 😞😂

It's strange how much chat I've seen about "guilt" for the latest crime, including in my faction chat. These are pixels on a screen with fake money fabricated by a computer. Literally no one is getting hurt. Never saw anyone complain about selling people's credit cards (skimming), stealing money from their bank accounts (cracking), or running confidence schemes on people (hustling). Yet you're "hurting" fictional people all the same in those crimes too. You deliberately signed up for a crime game. At the end of the day scamming is just a fancy RNG simulator.

I, for one, appreciate that this new crime of scamming has a fair few people feeling guilty. That is a sign that IRL, you are decent people who'd be worthwhile to associate with.

 

Good on you.
