Race for world firsts getting too serious? (the use of stims)

[Boogums]

Check logs for mention of dope usage, take action if found.

Talking about amphetamines isn't a violation of policy, and you can't prove they were actually on them through chat if this was ever brought to court.

[Woobels]

Haven't gone through the entire thread but I honestly don't see the problem here, infact it looks like really good advice to me if people are going to for these kind of hours, you might aswell tell them how do prepare properly instead of saying nothing.
I know a lot of students who use forms of stims to prepare/do tests with, fine in my book if you use them properly.

[MrExcelion]

Such is the culture of a top guild. Doesn't say it's really recommended though.

[Lassira]

They should take some advice from Foxconn workers and do meth.

Honestly this is what all high ranking video gaming is. Go to any esports event and 95% of the players that will do well are on amphetamines. Not really a big deal. It's not dangerous at all unless you're completely retarded with it.

Oh no, a few internet people taking adderall! the horror!

Depends on the organization. Most don't.

Not to mention anyone under the sun can get a prescription for Adderall or Ritalin anyway and then tests don't matter regardless.

I also find it hilarious that some people in here think that someone could get in trouble for using ADHD medicine as if it was actually illegal.

That linked post is awesome and I am inspired by the depth of preparation these guys take to be the best.

I like how many of you guys bash these guys for using Adderall (or any type of narcotic upper) as this drug is WIDELY used by college students who are trying to cram in as much studying as they possibly can the night before a major test. Sure one can argue that being #1 in a video game is less important than passing tests that will directly affect your real life but taking a drug to enhance what you are doing is the same no matter what the scenario. I by no means think that this is something a person should do, i actually dislike the whole thing and kind of laughed when i read the OPs post because it is so silly to take a drug to enhance your gameplay. Either way people will do whatever it takes to 'win', even if it is detrimental to their own health.

And in this case it's not detrimental to their own health and outside of having unnaturally extremely high blood pressure there is next to no reason not to do so.

BL have always been try hards, they raided on thanksgiving and still only beat Vodka by an hour.

[warlockSTAR]

one word "nerds"

[Bryntrollian]

I honestly don't understand why people have bad things to say about this;they are giving extremely good advice and not telling anyone to specifically use the stimulants, but just notifying the precautions to take if you will be using such procedures.

[Yuni]

Next we'll see roiding so that players' fingers can be bigger and stronger than ever before. Lulz.

"-Honey, our son spends way too much time at the computer, I'm worried for him!"
"-Don't worry dear, at least he's not doing drugs."

oh wait

[Dominian]

This would be funny if it wasn't the same guild that tries to smear BL's name every progression tier, Vodka that just broke up. It's a paste bin lol you really think half those things were said? From what i've heard the original post just talks about eating right and not staying up late. Not drugs.

I know a few people from that guild. They don't use drugs lol the post says "if you choose to" as in be careful cause many college kids do

WHICH IS WHAT HALF THE GUILD IS.....

[Gnarles Malarkey]

It's up to the player to recognize that requests to avoid proper sleep or, worse yet, to consume stimulants, benefits no one but the guild leader and/or officers siphoning sponsorship and advertising funds.

The world races are bullshit and always have been. No one is losing their virginity because of it.

Edit: I should point out that I do think people should be free to consume what they like, as they like, but that's the evil-socialist that exists in me as a Canadian. But if your guild membership hinges on you taking part in an activity you'd rather no participate in, fuckin' quit. The same goes for work, hobbies, or any other activity. I--personally--wouldn't punch myself in the dick for five dollars and hour, so I wouldn't dignify anyone who offered me that.
