A weird, cynical and sarcastic individual. Trust is ill advised.

Ab actu ad posse valet illatio.

"...Never pay more than 20 bucks for a computer game." - Guybrush Threepwood, The Secret of Monkey Island

"In the face of power, unique human qualities become valuable, hand-picked functions that operate in the service of an agenda. To a degree, we all lose our voice. In the wreckage of a fallen world, the only choice left to make is whose side we’re on, and what we’re willing to give up for the sake of the cause." - Richard Clark, Transistor Review

"On the political realm, nothing grand could be achieved and nothing would last without the presence of people whose genius, character and willpower would inspire, get together and direct the energies of a people.
Everything collapses as soon as at the leadership of a state you have a parade of mediocre individuals. Unity dies as greatness collapses." - Maurice Duron, The Cursed Kings, vol. 7

“Actual happiness always looks pretty squalid in comparison with the overcompensations for misery. And, of course, stability isn't nearly so spectacular as instability. And being contented has none of the glamour of a good fight against misfortune, none of the picturesqueness of a struggle with temptation, or a fatal overthrow by passion or doubt. Happiness is never grand.” - Aldous Huxley, Brave New World

"Since well I've played my part, all clap your hands
And from the stage dismiss me with applause." - Emperor Augustus, apud. Suetonius Tranquillus, The Lives of the Twelve Caesars

"Where there is little justice its dangerous to be right." - Francisco de Quevedo, The Politics of the Lord

"The individual has always had to struggle to keep from being overwhelmed by the tribe. If you try it, you will be lonely often, and sometimes frightened. But no price is too high to pay for the privilege of owning yourself." - Friedrich Nietzche, Article in Reader's Digest,1935.

"... In the age of social media, information moves more quickly than ever, outrage is cheap and easy but true courage remains rare." - Lincoln Mitchell, Sorry You’re Not Charlie; and You’re Not Ahmed Either, 15/01/2015 9:36am, source accessed online at http://observer.com/2015/01/sorry-youre-not-charlie-and-youre-not-ahmed-either/ .

“The only true and sustainable prosperity is shared prosperity.” - Joseph Stiglitz, ALF-CIO Conference, 2013

"Destiny is the excuse of the weak and the creation of the strong." - Nicolae Titulescu

"A word given is pure debt." - Romanian saying

“All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others.” - George Orwell, Animal Farm

"In the retail version, I'm much funnier." - Warcraft 2 Footman

"Under the spreading chestnut tree
I sold you and you sold me.
There lie they, and here lie we
Under the spreading chestnut tree." - George Orwell, 1984

"The universe is transformation; life is opinion." - Marcus Aurelius Antoninus, The Meditations of Marcus Aurelius, IV, 3.

"The greatest happiness of life is the conviction that we are loved; loved for ourselves, or rather, loved in spite of ourselves." - Victor Hugo, Les Miserables

"...
But once a man had sent a man,
To desert -- to the poison demon,
The slave obediently ran,
And by the morn he brought the venom.

He brought the resin of the death,
A twig with faded leaves, by morning,
And heavy sweat, on his pale face,
In icy rivulets was rolling.

He came, and lay, and fell in fit,
In shadow of the tent, in fluster,
The slave had died by the feet
Of his inexorable master." - Aleksandr Puskin, Anchar

1. I ignore friend requests from: people with their steam account level lower than 10 (I also reserve the right to decline your request if I find you suspicious), minors (be at least 18 years old, I am just too old for some things) or private/suspicious profiles. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy talking with people but I am also bored of people attempting to scam me. Real life friends and old friends from video games (esp. from GW/WoW/DDO/ESO/WAR/CO) or Discord are (of course!) exempt from this rule.
2. I remove people that add me and don't even bother to say hello so at least I have an idea who you are and why you added me. I do not keep people in my friends list for the sake of occupying the slot.
3. I despise requests like: "+rep my profile". Do not request such things!
4. I do not trade.
5. I own a secondary steam account: http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198259933599/ .
I WILL NEVER request a trade with that account, DO NOT EVER accept a trade from that account IF IT EVER HAPPENS.
6. I will always reply to my received messages, sometimes it just takes longer. Sorry if this is annoying at times.

Thank you for reading and taking the above into consideration!

"Not everything brings results but everything is a result of something." - Nisio Isin

"There is always somebody better but for the best it is always downhill." - Nisio Isin

"You're ten seconds away from the most embarassing moment of your life" - Ford Fairlane (the Rock and Roll Detective himself!)

"What is Chaos? Suffering, you might say. Oppression. Deceit. But could not all these things be said of your Imperium? You hunt down the talented and the strong-willed. You break them or sacrifice them. You lie to your citizens and wage war on those who dare speak out. The Inquisition you call master assumes guilt and execute millions on a whim and why? Who do you do this? Because you know Chaos is there but you do not know how to fight it, so you crush your own citizens for fear that they might aid the enemy." - Ghargatuloth, Daemon Prince of Tzeentch

"The lesson is this - the game is rigged. The cards are stacked. The dice are loaded. It's the same as it always was. Every cycle. People in power exert power. Little people cower in their homes, think what they're told to think, and buy whatever product will help them forget how horrible their lives are for another day. And that's why we don't *play* their fragging game. We don't swallow their drek sandwich and politely ask for another. It's why we run the shadows. That's where real life is, kiddo." - Harlequin

"...
Asako: Basically, it's just how those ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ think. If a perfectly nice guy lies to her one time, it's unforgivable, but if some piece of ♥♥♥♥ show her the smallest kindness, she's totally duped - she's putty in his hands...
Asako: If people think you're perfect, no one will forgive you if you make a single mistake. Ain't that a pain in the ass? That's why I try my hardest at playin' a ♥♥♥♥♥ every day..." - Asako Kusakabe, Labyrinth of Grisaia: The Afterglow of Grisaia, VN

"...For your information, a number of important sociological and psychological theorists have posited that stores exist in an intermediate space, neither private nor public in nature but combining elements of both. Displays in store windows, for instance, can best be viewed as mental constructs projected onto the public consciousness as a means of engendering mass conformity derived solely from the supposedly private domain of consumer choice..." - Baldurs Gate 1 Protagonist

"You guys are free to have a fight anywhere you want to, but interfering with an innocent girl’s meal is unforgivable. And, if it happens to be Lina Inverse’s meal, you’re lucky to be alive!" - Lina Inverse

"Though men may try to wrest the reins of their destiny from the gods, they are all born at the mercy of Nature, bound in a hundred ways to those around them. This is how the gods insure mortals are tied to their world of toil and sorrow." - Fake Cyrinishad

"It's true that your luster may not have been as bright as gold. You only shined on occasion. You were always arguing and fighting. You have wavy hair. You were lazy. You were the king of sexual harassment. You never paid the rent. You paid your people late. Still, you were brighter than the fake glint of gold plating. When you were angry, your entire soul was enraged. When you laughed, you laughed with all your heart. Your silver was much more beautiful." - Tama

"Fake people have an image to maintain. Real people just don’t care." - Hachiman Hikigaya

"A fallen angel banished from heaven, arises into the light to be received by the benevolence of God..." - Spike Spiegel

"I’m scared of hot and cold. In winter, I hide under the heating table and in summer, I lie in bed and do nothing." - Hirasawa Yui

"I have one last request. Please slap me in the face with that wad of cash." - Hirasawa Yui

“The cruelest form of torture one can inflict on a kender is to lock him up. Of course, it is also widely believed that the cruelest form of torture one can inflict on any other species is to lock them up with a kender.” - Margaret Weis

"Now, we who seek the light, Have tightened our resolve, and we’re stepping out toward tomorrow,
But now, for us, the ones who have lost our destinations, Someone teach us what it means to live.
The knockoffs keep on wriggling, It’s all idiots, there’s no end. Papparappa, Viva! Tarirarira~n,
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!" Okamoto's - Headhunt

"At its heart Gintama is a science fiction human pseudo-historical comedy. The bottom line is that this is a nonsense manga. But I don't believe in telling readers what to think, so read it any way you like." - Hideaki Sorachi

"Don't worry! I do not have low self esteem. I have low esteem for everybody else on this planet" - Daria

"Don't get me wrong. It's not like I'm worried about you. But if you don't come back I'll never forgive you." - Hitagi Senjougahara

"Stupid potato!" - Holo

I am not afraid of indie games! I am afraid of the wave of shovelware games that invaded the Steam STORE.
