    “To the Feds, I’ll keep this short, because I do respect what you do for our country. To save you a lengthy investigation, I state plainly that I wasn’t working with anyone. This was fairly trivial: some elementary social engineering, basic CAD, a lot of patience. The spiral notebook, if present, has some straggling notes and To Do lists that illuminate the gist of it. My tech is pretty locked down because I work in engineering so probably not much info there. I do apologize for any strife of traumas but it had to be done. Frankly, these parasites simply had it coming. A reminder: the US has the #1 most expensive healthcare system in the world, yet we rank roughly #42 in life expectancy. United is the [indecipherable] largest company in the US by market cap, behind only Apple, Google, Walmart. It has grown and grown, but has our life expectancy? No the reality is, these [indecipherable] have simply gotten too powerful, and they continue to abuse our country for immense profit because the American public has allowed them to get away with it. Obviously the problem is more complex, but I do not have space, and frankly I do not pretend to be the most qualified person to lay out the full argument. But many have illuminated the corruption and greed (e.g.: Rosenthal, Moore), decades ago and the problems simply remain. It is not an issue of awareness at this point, but clearly power games at play. Evidently I am the first to face it with such brutal honesty.”

    It’s more the quest that’s the problem than the NPC.

    The NPC has a repeatable quest that has a random really low chance of being available on each IRL day. It will become unavailable again the next day regardless of if you do it or not and if you were successful or not.

    The quest has three different paths. Doing each path successfully at least once gives you an achievement that’s prob the hardest to get in the game, because of how low the chance of it spawning on a given day and you logging on to the game and checking if it is available that day are. And it has to be repeated at least three times (more if you fail the quest).

    The rewards are negligible but completionists get understandably pissed off.
