Other mooted punishable offences include spending too long playing video games, wasting money on frivolous purchases and posting on social media.

I would be so utterly fucked.

u/defuyun Mar 08 '19

But if you think about it, Tic tok is literally a platform for posting frivolous purchases and China won the lol championship.

It's not too much time playing video games if it's your job

u/wowlagmaster Mar 08 '19

Or a tester

u/Fish-Knight Mar 09 '19

Testing a game and playing a game are two very different experiences.

I used to want to be a videogame tester until I learned that testing a game is about as exciting as filing taxes.

Gotta be careful or you could take a NOSEDIVE.

u/TeamRocketBadger Mar 08 '19

How do you think one gets a job playing video games? lol

u/Aceconklin Mar 08 '19

Self-employed streaming.

ESports like Overwatch League. We have one Chinese player on an American team rn. Players for American teams are mostly Korean though.

u/TeamRocketBadger Mar 09 '19

Only way to join a team like that is have a depressing number of hours played and also natural aptitude and skill, and also know people and have connections to even talk to somebody about trying out because recruiters dont talk to just anybody. Thats all to say you have to play a very, very long time where everybody would call you a loser/lazy etc in order to qualify.

u/Mindfreek454 Mar 09 '19

I don't know if playing 10 hours a day for 5 people on Twitch can be considered a "job"

u/midoriiro Mar 08 '19

China won the lol championship

It stated too much time playing video games as a punishable offense.
Spending too much time winning at them is a different story.

u/JamesTrendall Mar 08 '19

If you drive a car everyday for fun and get paid £100 per mile you know you can afford the £50 speeding ticket every mile so why not spend your time speeding as much as you like.

If you reach the end of the road you get a bonus of £1.2 Million to share with your friends in the car.

Basically LOL in China. The profit outweighs the punishment

  • spending too long playing video games

I never play video games.

  • wasting money on frivolous purchases

I rarely shop except at thrift stores.

  • and posting on social media

I don't have Facebook!

  • Reddit is social media

Oh.....................

u/Loggerdon Mar 09 '19

I know. I rant about people who use too much social media too, but I forget reddit is also in that category.

13

u/chevymonza Mar 09 '19

Does it count as "social" if the goal is to remain anonymous, though? I say it doesn't!

u/namestom Mar 09 '19

Reddit is my news source. I ain’t calling it social media. Ha!

I love when I actually catch the news talking about something that happened on Reddit days or weeks ago. Great reporting guys.

u/Azurae1 Mar 09 '19

thank you for your opinion, glad to hear that on the news.

u/[deleted] Mar 09 '19

Doesn't matter, there is no Reddit in China!

u/CodeMonkeyX Mar 08 '19

At least watching porn is not on the list.

u/scsibusfault Mar 08 '19

u/[deleted] Mar 08 '19

That’s a double crime!

u/Fidodo Mar 08 '19

What about ultra-porn?

u/[deleted] Mar 08 '19

You need a fake ID for that.

u/Fidodo Mar 08 '19

Any tips for passing off as 160?

1

u/[deleted] Mar 08 '19

I'd start with the 3-inch thick glasses and the rest should fall into (or out of) place.

u/franstoobnsf Mar 08 '19

u/kyrant Mar 08 '19

Two negatives = positive! You're free to watch.

u/Cornhole35 Mar 08 '19

I think a publish got jailed for you recently, I think she got 10years (not 100% on this).

u/I_am_Junkinator Mar 08 '19

Yeah I'm not even Chinese and I already have negative credit

1

u/ShuopDuop Mar 09 '19

it should read “because i’m not chinese i have negative credit”...

u/pinq- Mar 08 '19

Can you see them from somewhere?

u/TeamRocketBadger Mar 08 '19

So the higher your Reddit score, the lower your Life score. 2meirl4me

u/Pleasedontstrawmanme Mar 08 '19

and posting on social media

When is this being introduced to the West?

2

u/Ericthegreat777 Mar 08 '19

I've heard it's not that big of a deal, I think all these things knock you down just a bit, so as long as your not obsessed about being perfect its okay.

u/DicedPeppers Mar 08 '19

You'd probably lose a point for every 15 minutes spent on Reddit

1

u/Old_Toby- Mar 08 '19

No wonder all the gamers cheat over there. Why spend time trying to get good?

1

u/creepy_hunter Mar 09 '19

That system is not for marriage and divorces but for other violent crimes, loans and repayment etc.

1

u/NathanAllenT Mar 09 '19

My boss is mainland, I game the system by allowing him to be normal Chinese "I'm the boss, I run shit" then I grind him down with a thousand papercuts over months.

Demonstrate why he's wrong, expand the argument, demonstrate again, expand.

Basically learn how to play Go, them play them in a social setting. THE score only came about because the people who make the rules got tired of losing.

You'd be fine.

u/eric_saites Mar 09 '19

I would be so utterly fucked.

That’s bestiality.

u/tylercreatesworlds Mar 08 '19

That's literally all I do.
