HELLO! I WANT TO COLLECT SOME DATA.

IF YOU HAVE OPINIONS ABOUT ETHICS, PLEASE ANSWER THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS:

1] ARE THERE ACTIONS YOU CONSIDER UNACCEPTABLE REGARDLESS OF CONTEXT? IF SO, PLEASE PROVIDE EXAMPLES

2] ARE THERE SOME MITIGATING CONTEXTS THAT RENDER OTHERWISE UNACCEPTABLE ACTIONS ACCEPTABLE TO YOU? IF SO, PLEASE PROVIDE EXAMPLES

3] IF A PERSON HAS PERFORMED AN UNACCEPTABLE ACTION, WHAT DO YOU CONSIDER AN APPROPRIATE PUNISHMENT?

THANKS! 8)

1) I'm not really lenient towards those who hurt others for their own selfish gain, whether they do it through a deliberate murder, injury, or betrayal.

2) Acting in self-defense, having to kill in order to protect someone else, or hurting them in order to protect them. Having good intentions doesn't necessarily make them a good person, but if their reasons are understandable on a moral standpoint I wouldn't hold the same level of judgement towards them. [ Not to mention he killed a lot of Fangire to protect humans, so he's also putting himself in this category... ]

3) It really depends on the context. If someone committed betrayal, for example, I would think their punishment should be something like a stained reputation and social isolation, certainly not some jail time like with worse crimes.

HMM. IN THE CONTEXT OF YOUR ANSWER TO QUESTION 3] HOW WOULD YOU DEFINE 'BETRAYAL'?

Acting like an ally to people but secretly sabotaging them behind their back, for any reason that would range from personal satisfaction to helping an enemy side. Lying about something important enough that it destroys one or more relationships. Using a friend's insecurities and fears against them. Backstabbing, either figuratively or physically, an ally or friend.

In short, the process of exploiting one's trust for selfish reasons. That's what I think is betrayal.

THANK YOU THAT'S VERY HELPFUL! SO SOMEONE JUST DECIDING TO WORK WITH DIFFERENT PEOPLE WOULDN'T COUNT, IF THAT PERSON WASN'T LYING ABOUT IT?

Yeah, I think so. It might cause a rift, but at least they're honest about it.

SO THE PROBLEM IS DECEIVING PEOPLE MORE THAN WHAT YOU ACTUALLY DO... I NEVER THOUGHT ABOUT IT LIKE THAT BUT THAT MAKES SENSE I THINK. THANK YOU

If it helped you understand better, that makes me glad.

Admittedly I'm not extremely knowledgeable about social topics, but I'm currently learning too.

OH! WOULD YOU LIKE ME TO SHARE MY NOTES?

Sure. I'm a bit curious about what you've gathered so far.

OK!! I WILL HAVE TO SUMMARISE SOME OF MY PRIOR RECORDS TO THE BEST OF MY RECOLLECTION BECAUSE I DON'T HAVE ALL MY STUFF HERE BUT I WILL FORWARD YOU AS MUCH OF THE DATA I HAVE COLLECTED ON THIS SUBJECT AS I CAN

Thank you for trusting me with that information. I'll see if it's going to serve me as a reference for the future.

HMMM I THINK IT WOULD BE BETTER TO PROVIDE THIS INFORMATION PHYSICALLY, A LOT OF MY NOTES ARE ON PAPER AND IT WOULD PROBABLY BE MORE EFFICIENT TO JUST COPY THEM FOR YOU THAN TO TRANSCRIBE THEM WITH THIS DEVICE, I HAVE A LOT OF DATA

WHERE CAN I SEND IT TO YOU?

I understand. I could tell you the location of my house to make matters easier.
