Furthermore, MSU is not free of sin, we are just committing them on a level that makes us guilty but not effective. Hugh justifies...he's helping the needy!
I agree with that. And justification of improper behavior is a basic flaw with the self-righteous, Freeze seems to be a good example of that if that is his reasoning. There is line between helping someone because it's the right thing to do vs benefitting yourself for worldly gain. I don't mind someone trying to help players but his actions have proven his help mainly centers on keeping them available to play until they have gone so far that he has no choice or they can't help him succeed.
