  • In an imaginary scenario, if I go to sell my house, and know that I’ve got a 400k loan to pay off and the house is worth around 400k, I’m going to factor in what I have to pay the agents and set it for 420k (assuming 2.5% for both selling and buying agents to split). I’m not going to be walking away from that still owing money to the bank.

    The prices always factor in how much will be going to the agent(s). You will not accept a price that is below what you need.

    Oh boy, another person thinking a lurch towards fascism will help get progressive policies get passed in congress. Or maybe they think fascists having control of the biggest intelligence services in the world will help the leftists thrive? Surely leftists will be just fine if the far right gets all the levers of power in government.

    I think there’s different personalities involved here. The other thing that I’m personally curious about, did you play the sim and then think, “I should get this gear” or did you get the gear before ever playing it?

    I think what’s mostly the target of ire is people that have the mindset of having to buy their way to the top. Or trying to make up for lack of skill not by continuing to try the sport/event/game out, but getting the best of everything trying to avoid ever looking ‘not good’ at it despite it being obvious to everyone play that they’ve not done this thing before.

    And not everyone is like this obv, but a lot of these people don’t want to put in the effort to get better, just want to buy their way to the top. Somewhat related are the poor folks that put in huge amounts of time trying to get better but can’t afford good gear. And then someone shows up with the top notch stuff, plays once and never uses the stuff again. Obviously it’s their money, but is a shit feeling when you’re cash strapped to see good gear rot.
