So the guy gets no care because the system is not fit for purpose?

Play on a public server - someone else gets to deal with that! :D

You are so right! Nethack is an unforgiving master, and it will have you in the end no matter how smart you think you are.

If you're going to splat on astral, make it spectacular!

I've had so many, it's hard to choose. Probably my most stupid, self-inflicted, I-totally-deserved-it-too YASD was when I hatched a couple of baby silver dragons, lovingly raised them to adulthood, then decided to callously kill them for their scales. Except I used a wand of death. I didn't have reflection. They did.

Yes, I know I'm a horrible person for even attempting to do that. I have paid.
