            People set up private servers and then sell use of admin commands or mods for real money. Stuff like 100 diamonds spawned in for $5. If course mods make it more seamless by implementing currency systems directly into the game, but the basic premise is selling in game power for real money. It’s extremely popular to do this in other games like Rust and Ark as well

      Don’t listen to people telling you this is a good system. If your kids are fighting and assaulting each other, it’s not working. Just abolish the system give each kid a max amount they can spend per month on this stuff. Non-transferable. (120 upvotes)

    Pool the toilet dollars into a central fund that can only be drawn down with the consent of all of the children. Put an expiry date on all toilet dollars so if they can’t agree they all get nothing.

    It’ll either force them to work together or teach them how best to bicker over the will of their estranged father.

    My kid used to play Roblox, which I understand is riddled with bullshit, but this is new to me and just utterly wild.

    I guess this is the kinda stuff I missed out on (luckily avoided??) by just having one child - no bizarre sibling rivalry over opaque internet currency.

        Seriously, there’s ideology happening here. There are two factions, the skibidi toilets and the machine agents, locked in an escalating arms race which gradually destroys the entire world they’re fighting over. The toilets have human heads grotesquely warped but toilet bodies while the agents have human bodies which are always in businesswear but machine heads, specifically machines of surveillance and propaganda (security cameras, televisions, and loudspeakers). The toilets primarily use physical attacks or eye lasers while the agents use more and more machines attached to their bodies. The toilets can parasitize the agents, but the agents quickly develop technological countermeasures.

        The perspective is always that of an agent.

        What does this say about surveillance, about government, about war and revolution and humanity? I don’t know but it’s not nothing.

          There are two factions, the skibidi toilets and the machine agents,

          The skibidi toilets are a radicalized group who gets “normies” liberals to join them, basically Maoism.

          The perspective is always that of an agent.

          bourgeois dictatorship smh

          What does this say about surveillance, about government, about war and revolution and humanity?

          “humanity” no idealism please, there is a struggle between workers and property owners

    As a skibidi toilet central banker, would you go into a hospital and mess with people’s life support systems?

      Would you go into a hospital and just unplug someone’s skibidi toilet, knowing they need it to live?
