Ch200 is like drug addiction and the people who take part in that culture by choice.
Addicts are some of the most charming and entertaining people you will ever meet. Until they snap. Many people enjoy playing with their emotions to make them snap to watch their meltdowns. That in itself is an addiction, a codependence, and a person just as sick as the addicted. Being a part of that culture even as a bystander will have an effect on you. Those innocents are called enablers because they neither walk away nor work towards helping the addicted to help themselves. They act as an audience to play to, and empowerment by tacit approval.
Ch200 and in other arenas Ch1 in spirit, are great for game banter and friendship. In practice are vehicles to enable the worst in players who would be better served forced to use PM's that can be handed over to HTC staff for review. PM's do not allow the ch200 bystanders to cross over and become agitators how ever unintentional of the addicted's meltdown. And allows HTC in the forums an ability to MOD those who would post the meltdown publicly to achieve that next level of "possible" public meltdown by the addicted.
What other purpose does ch200 serve anymore.
Here again is the cowardice of the old excuse: "Hey I was just having some fun. Lighten up man!!" or do on to others until you get caught. Then runaway, attack the messenger, dissemble, prevaricate, split hairs and blame your victim for being too easy of a victim.
