You like that Len? Nice. Here is what is fully written on the concept:
Creative Villainy?
Los Viscerales is not a villain group, we finding the idea of creative villainy appealing. It is easy to react to the "bad things" any griefing schmuck may do and declare yourself a hero. It is also just as easy to be an annoying drop stealer. But for a player to step forward and make intentional actions of villainy against other characters and make dramatic statements announcing their intentions, they can be an antagonist only a good storyline can make. Creative villains are often the rarest and strongest of players when playing nice is the norm. For every villain, there are 10 heroes waiting for the chance to make a name for themselves by taking them down.
Los Viscerales doesn't encourage pathetic attempts at griefing or agitating other players, but we do suggest that player antagonists create a quality experience by organizing villain groups, which can launch assaults on other players (Aethyra), kill steal, drop steal raids (TMW), overcharge and mislead newbies, bully, provoke and generally attempt to antagonize players into action to defend their interests against the villain's.
Los Viscerales suggests players organize groups to fight the villains in any way they can without involving GM or developer intervention. We also don't support players damning other players that may decide to side with the villains just for the fun of it, to equal out the war. Basically, we find the idea of a "nice community" less appealing, where everyone is paralyzed to test each other and are often more willing to gang up on "rule breakers" than make gangs to break rules. We can be more open to a "vibrant community" where we can talk to and enjoy each other socially in neutral areas or at neutral times, but we are also willing to sacrifice a little personal safety outside these areas and times so that our associations become more valuable and a larger shared conversation is created among the community based on the antagonisms of villains, the virtuous behavior of heroes and the mercenary attitude of players that can go either way if the money is right or there is fun to be had.
