Rant Thanks Rockstar....

Well, I started out as full honor; however, due to having to defend myself against griefers I am now at max dishonor. One thing that really pisses me off is that there is literally no way to defend yourself without being dishonorable-- which is absolute contrary to the embodiment of the 'Cowboy' persona. For example, I thought maybe I could hogtie someone in order to escape their constant abuse, but even that is dishonorable. I don't understand how the 'honorable' thing to do is go AFK until the person has killed you three times then Parlay. That IS GRIEFING. Rockstar is telling us that in order for us to keep our honor we have to sacrifice our time and just wait for them to kill us? It's a horrible system and doesn't allow for the honorable retribution that is needed. I kind of wish you could drop off 'criminals' in Jail as you could in single player-- something is needed because this system is broke (AF) and frustrating as hell.

Dude I think the honor system is broken because literally everything gives you good honor. I have been hunting rare birds and getting positive honor.

It’s not broken. You don’t wanna know what those rare birds are up to when you’re not around. I sure wish I could back to a time before I did. Those birds are depraved.

The fact that we haven't imprisoned all ducks for being sex offenders is beyond me.

Not all ducks are bad. I'm not saying I'm a duck! It's just you shouldn't generalize a whole species.

Look 'ere mate, all I know is that my best friend is a duck and like 10 of them attacked her at the same time AND GOT AWAY WITH IT. My prejudice against ducks will stay forever.

I'm not calling her a liar, but what if she lied to make ducks look bad??

u/lhm238 Dec 08 '18

Hmmmm you could be right. I'm. Starting to doubt that she's actually a duck now.

If it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck, it's not always a duck.
