Whoever made up the term cherry picking and tried to construe it as griefing needed to take a step back and relax. That anyone has the ridiculous level of imagination to in some way consider this griefing is beyond my comprehension. Does anyone actually think the entire world is out to get them in this way? Remember in live when antares bio loot sold for 72k a piece, making up for it's lack of stacking? Well now antares bio loot sells for 1.4k a piece, making it absolutely not worth the trouble. Hence... I leave most bio loot in corpses. Does this mean I'm cherry picking the corpses?
No. It doesn't. I got there first, and you're just whining. I think anyone who feels they have any right to complain about this is silly and needs to take a step back and reevalulate their feelings on the game and on this subject. There are plenty of ores to be had... dry your eyes and move on. Just because you see it and it upsets you does not make any justifiable argument for claiming it was griefing. Someone picked out the ore they wanted, for whatever reason. They didn't do it because "[whiney player] will show up later and have a fit lololol," they did it for some other reason. You see it and you feel your little world collapsing because it's against your own little personal book of rules on mining, and therefore you construe it as an action taken against you personally, as intentional griefing. When in reality, you are only griefing yourself and making yourself upset by applying your little made-up rule to every player in the game.
