Controversial Venting Thread - Mafia Edition

In general, I would like people to be able to filter themselves enough to phrase their issues with each other in a respectful and constructive manner. But sometimes, you need to really unload to get it off your chest to begin the healing process that comes from the traumatic events you often undergo as part of playing Mafia on a forum. Rather than filling post game discussions and the general thread with intense, bitter arguments and complaints about how awful you are to each other, this thread is a designated containment pod for it all.

Generally speaking, I'm not going to moderate this. That means course language, vitriol and even straight up flaming may happen in here, and it's not going to get broken up. That said, there are still some rules to observe:

1 - You are still using the site and thus are bound by the site's code of conduct.
2 - In general, try to keep it a little tongue in cheek. As much as there is value in getting what you need to say off your chest, straight up hurting each other is not the intended goal here so try to have a sense of humour about it all.
3 - If you feel like somethingbgoes too far then my first suggestion is to exit the thread. If something deeply upsets you though, please talk to me about it and if needed I'll read the context and intervene. Again we're not trying to hurt one another, this is purely to alleviate some tension from building up where you feel you otherwise can't say it.
4 - This is not an invitation to harrass people. Repeatedly tagging them here to get a response isn't going to fly as that isn't what this thread is for. In general, I don't want to see you tagging each other at all. The purpose is to release your anger in a way that you maybe can't in other threads. It is not to try and force a conversation between people, especially unwilling people. That's not to say you can't tag people at all, but be mindful of when you do that you're not breaking this rule.
5 - You are allowed to rant about other players here. But I don't want to see anyone making reference to their personal lives if you happen to be privy to such information if you can help it, as again, the purpose is not to hurt each other.
6 - Please don't make me regret this.
7 - If this thread happens to be a good idea, all the credit goes to @hime for suggesting it. If it happens to be a terrible idea, @Dr_Professor83 gets all of the blame for it - don't blame me!

Otherwise enjoy yourselves. Complaints about game design can still be made in the game threads post game and some discussion on the game but when it goes beyond that and becomes an argument about each other is when you take it to here. I'm going to let you guys decide on when that is so if your posts get deleted in those threads, consider whether they would be better served being here.

Oh, Prof—don’t even get me started. The audacity of this player is on a whole new level. First off, how does someone with such a big ego manage to play like they've never touched a controller before? It’s honestly baffling. Every single match, Prof walks in with that smug smile, as if they’re some sort of gaming prodigy. But then… oh then, the gameplay starts. And it’s just pure disaster from the get-go.
It’s like, are you even trying? They’ve got this weird obsession with overcomplicating the simplest tasks, acting like they're playing 5D chess while the rest of us are just trying to complete the basics. “Oh, you want to rush the objective? Nah, let me sit in this corner and pretend I'm strategizing, all while we're losing because of it.” Seriously, Prof, if you’re gonna sit back and “think” so much, at least think about the actual game!
And don't even get me started on the excuses. Every time things go south, it's never their fault. "Oh, I was lagging." “My mouse was glitching.” “I had a bad spawn." Prof, please. We can all see your performance. It’s like watching a car crash in slow motion, and you’re just sitting there blaming the road instead of admitting you're driving like you’ve never seen one before.
It’s one thing to be a bit clueless, but the arrogance—the delusion—that accompanies it? It’s next-level. If you’re gonna play like that, at least have the decency to drop the “pro” act. We all know who the real MVP is here, and spoiler alert—it ain’t you, Prof. You’re just holding up the team with your endless stream of self-assured nonsense while we’re over here trying to salvage the wreckage you’ve caused.

FOOK YOU @Dr_Professor83

Screw Pokémon mafia we voted out a scum basically every day and it still came down to f3 LYLO

Only town were allowed to die

It shouldn’t have been that close but we had like 12 mafia members in a 31 player game.

Also how are we supposed to find mafia when mafia team literally converts their NK super late into the game?

Also there was a point where Flower got my dream of having 0 Pokémon and I felt like I had to compromise my morals and catch a bunch of Pokémon and not achieve my dreams of releasing all my Pokémon and getting a Missingo because scum were trying to kill off the one move I had that made me bulletproof

I used to think I was a man of integrity but this game showed me I’m a shill for anyone dangling a sign in front of me that says “limited time offer catch your Pokémon now before it’s too late”

But yeah scum team gets all that and I can’t even wish for Flower and I to leave the game victorious when I had like 2 wishes???

wishes?? More like WASHES am I right???


I’m not even that mad rn but this is stuff I was mad about during the game when it was going

So it’s more like me rehashing stuff I was mad about

Well glad I got that off my chest

think ur using this wrong lads

i want to vent about the 1 hour+ and 100+ mb of data i wasted skimming through 20+ pages of filler posts only to die right after, not to mention having to deal with intentional trolls prior to it

it aint much but it was honest work

fook everyone who fluffed there to catch a pokemon and everyone who trolled itentionally (scum not included, you guys were doing your job), and ofcourse fook the host too for intentionally planting that pokemon in a span range of 1000 posts to increase the spamming

Me and York spammed 500+ posts after you died just to flood the thread while pretending to spam for a pokemon we already got from the post event
