This question made everyone fall into silence.
After thinking, Fu Chen was the first to speak, "We can't definitively say there are three S-rank God's Imitators now, right? It's also possible these three S-rank gas were all made by one person?"
After considering for a mont, Wei Yinzhang said, "We can't rule out the possibility that 'a certain God's Imitator created multiple S-rank gas', but when we consider problems, it's better not to think this way as much as possible.
"Supposing these three S-rank gas were all made by the sa God's Imitator, that would an sothing very bad: the entire Gallery ecology has beco unbalanced.
"This God's Imitator can save people when they want to save people, kill people when they want to kill people, and can frequently create various S-rank gas. When other God's Imitators' submissions may not even be selected, they can almost monopolize the design rights for all Gallery gas.
"If that were really the case, we might as well not call them a God's Imitator and just let them beco a god directly.
"Considering this possibility would actually interfere with our judgnt.
"So it's more appropriate to consider them as three separate people."
After thinking seriously, Zheng Jie said, "It must be a good thing, right?
"No matter what, judging from the values demonstrated in 'Simple Q&A', this God's Imitator clearly leans toward the 'order' and 'justice' side, right?
"Just like Yinzhang.
"Although this God's Imitator didn't directly enter the ga like Yinzhang to distribute visa ti to relatively disadvantaged players, there's still favoritism and care in the ga rules.
"At least this thod of using the against-conscience chanism for interrogation can only be used by communities with relatively upright values.
"Not only that, this ga will also have even more far-reaching effects on the ecology of various communities going forward.
"Those communities accustod to selling out teammates in gas to earn visa ti, communities that deliberately abandon disadvantaged groups, will have to weigh whether doing so again might cause them to encounter this kind of 'heart-piercing' question in future gas, leading to their community status collapsing.
"For communities like Community 12 and Community 15, it's a kind of restriction."
Wang Yongxin shook his head, "I think not necessarily.
"This reasoning might be overly optimistic.
"Although from the situation within this ga, this kind of 'heart-piercing question' using the Gallery's against-conscience chanism has great destructive power, I think the conditions for this to take effect are very stringent.
"Wang Weidong's situation is very likely a special case.
"To achieve such a goal actually requires simultaneously eting three conditions:
"First, Wang Weidong is a core player within the community but hasn't established absolute authority.
"Second, Wang Weidong's community is relatively strong with relatively abundant visa ti and can bear this kind of loss.
"Third, although Wang Weidong has been secretly doing bad things all along, he still needs to maintain basic decency and morality within the community.
"If any one of these three conditions isn't t, this plan might not take effect.
"When a community's ecology deteriorates to a certain degree, this kind of 'heart-piercing question' also becos ineffective.
"For example, suppose Community 15 has already beco Wang Weidong's absolute authority. He controls middle-tier players, forming a perfect pyramid structure and becoming the absolute power core.
"Then would he still fear this kind of 'heart-piercing question'?
"Most likely he wouldn't.
"Because he could directly tell other players in the community: That's right, I admit it, I wanted to sell you all to earn gold coins, but so what? Can you resist ?"
Fu Chen was sowhat astonished, "It wouldn't go that far, would it? In that case, wouldn't other players in the community resist?
"After all, they can gather seven votes."
Wang Yongxin shook his head, "A majority without organization doesn't count as a majority. When the votes in players' hands cannot form a united force, they simply can't gather seven votes and will only beco individual votes.
"As long as other players in Community 15 are weak enough while Wang Weidong is strong enough, he can completely bypass the community's original voting chanism.
"By doing proper benefit distribution, giving a small portion of people excessive benefits and using them to manage the majority of players, that's all he needs.
"Or for instance, if certain communities are very weak, like Community 12 which was originally like scattered sand, they also might not buy into this.
"Because for them, the community is scattered sand anyway. Who can really isolate whom? Compared to large amounts of visa ti, morality is completely irrelevant.
"So I think the appearance of 'Simple Q&A' may not simply make all communities 'turn toward good', but is more likely to make all communities' ecologies beco even more 'polarized'.
"It's possible to embrace relatively positive values like our community and advocate cooperation.
"But it's also possible that ambitious individuals in communities will further accelerate their scramble for power, building communities into absolute authorities or complete survival-of-the-fittest ecologies. This is also another way to solve the problem.
"And for core players in certain communities, this is actually an easier thod to achieve."
Everyone fell into silence. Obviously, this possibility Wang Yongxin ntioned did indeed exist.
Take Community 12 for example. If they were ordinary disadvantaged players, they very likely wouldn't have a choice.
Even if Chen Guangming admitted he wanted to kill them, what then?
Vote to kill Chen Guangming?
Setting aside whether this plan would leak or whether soone would betray them, the question is what happens after killing Chen Guangming?
If they enter gas, they still have no one to lead them and still can't survive.
If they don't kill Chen Guangming, at least he has the ability to lead. Moreover, after entering gas, he still needs people to help him, and not all gas have chanisms like 'Shelter Ga' for selling out teammates.
It's not necessarily certain they would die at Chen Guangming's hands.
In other words, even knowing Chen Guangming wants to sell out teammates, for ordinary players in Community 12, there's simply no other choice.
Moreover, after this ga, when Wang Weidong returns to Community 15, will he reform and try to ensure he no longer has behaviors or thoughts of selling out teammates, or will he simply accelerate his pace, attempt to eliminate dissidents, and quickly turn Community 15 into his absolute authority?
It's hard to say.
Of course, during Wang Weidong's attempts to eliminate dissidents, other players in Community 15 would definitely resist, internal chaos would occur, which would certainly be a weakening for these communities.
But as Wang Yongxin said, we can't wishfully think that the appearance of 'Simple Q&A' only has positive impacts without negative impacts.
Wang Yongxin continued, "If we reason backwards from this point, we also can't wishfully assu the God's Imitator of 'Simple Q&A' is benevolent. They might also have a neutral attitude.
"They might be using this ga to forcibly accelerate the evolution of each community's ecology, pushing competition between communities into an even more intense stage."
Li Renshu nodded thoughtfully, "Yes, although this line of thinking is slightly dark, we still need to fully consider various different possibilities."
