Re: ...!?

A man should never be ashamed to own he has been in the wrong, which is but saying, in other words, that he is wiser today than he was yesterday. -Alexander Pope

I was wrong. You don't care maybe,  but I've gotta say it. I still have my opinion, believe it or not, but I was completely wrong in how I communicated with, and about the people on this list. I'm just gonna leave it at that.

I have to apologize for my intemperance just now. I was frustrated. I stand by the need to point out what is wrong.

Georg, gotta say, it's weird to be called "lefty" for "conservative" values, be more precise.

Nah, I'm gonna stick this in your faces one more time. I tried to be nuanced and polite about it, but you don't want to think. Only David and Pietro made any attempt at thoughtful responses. the rest of you want to act like idiots. You can do that.

I don't much care what independent adults choose to, but I don't many people use OpenBSD as a historical archive. battlestar is in the wrong place IMO. like shitting in a fruit basket. You can do that too — BUT IT'S A FUCKING CHOICE. I just want you to be fully aware of that. That's it

Help me (and anyone else) understand something about the attitudes and dispositions of the OpenBSD project.

Please, just tell me why this even here.

Looking in source files for "battlestar" in the default install sets, (src/games/battlestar/command*) function names and strings clearly show that rape and murder are deliberate features of the game; and it really delights in describing horrible things you do to people. (E.g., functions "ravage" (clearly, "sadistic violence") and "murder", among other things.)

Basically, the player's meant to be a psychopathic killer  and rapist.
