    I mean what did he expect? Did he think that the community dedicated to rumors and leaks would praise the dude who reported someone for leaking something?

    Was he expecting that’d he’d get a medal for it?

      Not only this, the guy firmly believes that this leak will hurt Bethesda. I think “Out of touch” is the English expression to describe this

        You can also just use “stupid motherfucker”, that seems pretty appropriate, too. (For both the leaker and the other guy, as it happens)

      He didnt report someone for leaking info or screengrabs, he reported a guy who stole dozens of copies and tried to sell them for a profit.

      Fuck snitches but also guy wasnt fighting injustice, it was theft.

      I dont feel much sympathy for either side.

      You know what’s even dumber?

      Giving his full legal name for this interview…

      Like, that is just massively idiotic, especially with a pretty unique name. Not only did he dox himself in reddit, but people in the real world now know he’s the one that did this.

    2 things.

    1. It was stupid as fuck to brag about it and post your face on the internet. Wtf are you thinking? No common sense.

    2. The snitch is a self righteous asshole. Jerking himself off for telling the police about this crime. Then he also gives his full name. Again no common sense.

    Both guys are idiots. They deserve each other.

    That subreddit is a strange place. I once tried to post a post warning people not to overhype themselves so they could enjoy the game properly, and the post got removed. It’s an echo chamber full of nutcases.

      To anyone seeing this - don’t read the comments… I’ve lost brain cells. It’s not even an especially long article and you can tell 99% of the people commenting only read the headline lol
