Wording is just a way to try to get off with it. You can choose whatever word you want, but he did help towards what he hates. And forgive me if I don't fully comprehend those big words on the wikipedia example, english is not my first language.
2. A village throws wood at a small fire, the fire gets huge. Nobody to blame. Not even the farmer with the truck full of logs. Sounds reasonable.
1. That might be the case for MapleSEA because a lot of factors make it pretty much impossible to even be mid-funded without huge amounts of cash, but despite the fact that KMS does have hackers and botters their economy is still good enough that a superb bosser that made a killing from bosses last time could in fact fund themselves without much cash. I used to think Limgoon was one of those super-funded Maplers until evidence showed otherwise since I never knew that he organized boss runs before this thread was posted and if he really did build himself up he has every right to say that since some other people at KMS did the exact thing you're saying feeds the fire and who knows, maybe that Xenon that beat him to the first successful Chaos Vellum solo really did just that.
The point I'm making here is that he's not being hypocritical simply by stating how he hates the gap; he would need to hate it and put in tons of funding for no reason and then deplore that reality since he'd truly be saying one thing and doing another and making no amends to lessen it.
2. How is it the farmer's fault if the village took the logs he could have been intending to use for something else and threw it in? One person alone isn't responsible for the state of the game, much like how MSEA can't blame PerfectShang for high cash prices even if he spent SGD 1800 on a Cygnus overall just to get back the same stats at the end.
