Art is free. Everything that involves art, sports, athletics, anything of that nature, is free and should be free. There are many that does art that is just as good or better than art that is worth millions.

You watch football on tv, people fake injuries to affect the judge. Everything that involves big money becomes corrupted and fake. I would rather watch children's sports, it's much more genuine and it's about the true nature of sports: Keeping fit and having fun. Not sitting in your couch with beer and chips and becoming overweight (not a mockery, just objective facts).

Money should come from sacrificing, or at least doing something that the society needs. Masoner, busdriver, healthcare worker, dentist, whatever you can think of. They require discipline and a lot of practice, and THAT is what should warrant money. Not sitting in front of a computer playing games and talking to a microphone. It also involves no personal risk. Doing a work practice involves personal risk, because you usually are involved with other people's safety. If a busdriver makes a mistake, it can cost him and dozens of other people their lives. Yet they get paid probably much less than what someone is sitting in front of a pc screen chit-chatting about stupid games make during a year.

That is the core of the problem. It's the risk that comes with the work, and the long-term involvement of a craft, that should determine the wages. Not popularity and "trend-factor" or whatever you call it. It's what is to me the equivalent of Bullshit. And i will never stop fighting against that because i empathize too much with those that actually do have real jobs. They have to fight this kind of stigmatization with their children every day, trying to show their children the meaning of keeping a real job, while this bullshit is brainwashing their children to play games instead of developing skills.

You say you are faster than him. He finished the game in 1h10min. I bet my ass you can't break his record, under the same rules.

And I don't understanding, are you actually praising using maphack?

I dont have anything against Llama himself, i dont like his stream (which is cringe af - looks like a 15 year old channel). But mostly, I don't like how he has so much attention on the community - i mean, it seems the developers only listen to him no matter what, i.e theres a huge amount of the community that doesnt like "x" but if llama says "x" is a problem the devs focus on the issue the day after.

So, for me, i dont like how he has so much power over the community and he also creates those 2021 braindeads that follow him blindly

i write my own mods for d2 and scripts so yes everything a person can do a function can do with total accuracy. No one cares if you can do a game quick d2 is not about that it never was, its about getting to 99, trading, pvp, exploits. By making him self unique in the sense that if you practice anyone can play this game fast and bots do it all the time and so do people (its called ladder fyi). its just about making yourself a big fish in a small pond.

Can a modder finish faster? YA LOL you can skip entire acts of the game. The was an exploit where you could go from act 1 to act 5 it was used for mass socketing and the hybrid method back in 2010-15 so you dont corrupt chars that are important lol use an expendable one.

for me d2 has always been about finding exploits, writing scripts, botting, writing bots, trading, pk, and making profit. for most players this is pretty much average for old school 2000-> 2022. we did have a breed of trash players around 2015 who cried there trash asses off about how people uses bots. no one cares we just move on and press the mute button lol. then they complain that they cant find hrs in d2r we are the reason why those items were so cheap...



so heres what your gonna say:

everyone in the thread has no skills pathetic males
anyone who uses bots has no skills
you will accuse people of being toxic
you will ask if you are faster (hes not the fastest i cant find the site but there is a rank and hes like 3 or 4 your gonna have to google it)

so lets quickly answer it:
your just trolling no one cares
you clearly know nothing
lol no u
only noobs care about trash like that seriously no one of value cares so move on



hope were on the same page now ;)

This is the most pathetic thing I've ever read on this forum. Gratz.

@topic: lhama is a Nice Guy, my only problem with him is that he only pvms.

I mean, its ok, but he is a Guy with big influence over blizz and his pvm preferences are a concern...

I read that as:
"No one knows how to play Diablo! The game was not designed to play how the developers meant, only I know how to play it properly! I know a couple of Lua and AutoIt scripts (ultra hacker), I'm a entitled little bitch and am superior than everyone else in the game, lulz noobz".

I don't care how you enjoy the game. Keep writing (cof cof pasting) your scripts, show to your mommy a bot killing Pindleskin. She'll be proud.

I just said MrLlamaSC is faster than you, I didn't say he is the fastest in the world and now I'm absolutely sure he knows more about Diablo than you.

perfectly normal cycle of a game. would expect an upsurge with ladder, for 2 weeks, rince and repeat.
also this was the streamer that said "there is no point id'ing rare amulets they can never be good". something somewhere died when he said that. but i will watch his stream on occasion. its always useful to get into the mindset of different people, it helps to understand them.

you have to also accept that streamers are what keep, and have kept, the game relative for years, so honestly, i would support him.

and finally, I am not surprised that a streamer does not like JSP. most of the sub forums are unwelcoming to new players, toxic, and not worth investing in. the root cause is that its the wild west and there is no defined set of acceptable behavior, or body that enforces a level of accepted norms / common decency. This is a trading site and beyond that its what you make of it, whoever YOU are.

because hes a god dam noob

my ass drunk knows more then d2 then that idiot

playing the game fast is not hard we all do it when ladder starts, and with mh vector pathing, packet teleport its a total joke how much faster us modders are.

Llama seems to have contempt for jsp users in general, so having jsp users lightly flame him by saying he's annoying seems justified on that premise alone.

Aside from that, you can't like everyone, and you certainly won't agree with everyone, and people like llama have a lot of influence over any narratives being passed along in the scene, and apparently influence over the friggin devs of the game we all play, so being upset that the person with that influence has different ideas than you or I have is also totally reasonable. This is why popular figures in pretty much all aspects of modern life and media are like magnets when it comes to criticism and hate, it's normal honestly.

Either way I found some of Llama's videos helpful at least, in regards to shortening my SSF playthroughs of the game and I gladly supported him through viewership of that content, but I disagree with him on quite a bit as well and I'm not particularly fond of him having such influence either. It is what it is.

I tend to agree with cooley seeming... cool, and Sweet Phil isn't half bad either from what I can tell, but I've only seen like 5 videos each from them.
