For such flimsy reasons. Amber really has no judgement...

Also, no-one telling Nadia anything; a sign that she hasn't quite earned the trust of the others yet?

Anyone who learns of something after the others do might say what she said in irritation. It has little actual link to trust so far.

Interesting, how both sides take this issue. It is true that Nadia has done some redemable acts, but its sets a dangours precedent in how they deal with criminals. Which brings us to the argurment of which is better, the potensial for good, like Mayfly has shown, or the following of the laws to a m...

I'm more talking about the Laws of Society. I am not a romantic at all, I,m just a realist. That truly may be a flaw, but thats the way it is. Whatever the punisment might or might not do. If we don't follow the laws we set down ourselves, the laws become pointless. We need a minimum rather than the...

But they shouldn't get away nigh-scott free when caught. Punishment should still be applied.

On an unrelated note, its good to see some new activity in the board!

It was a stupid gamble on their part. It paid off anyways. Your complaint is only really valid now as a complaint about the story progression, and not really about their actions. In an in-world sense, you can't really argue that Nadia's later actions rendered everything moot. I can, and I do. Nadia...

Its goal is *not* the punishment, but the *prevention* of wrongdoing. That being the case, it is far better that Mayfly's talents be put to use fighting criminals and villains than her being locked up. Prevention is fine, but once the wrong is committed, there must be punishment when the person is ...

In the end, perhaps it wasn't her profession which bothered me - although it didn't help. Rather, it was the way she was included with the heroes: too fast, to leniently and too easily. Here we have someone who committed multiple crimes, who fought heroes high above the city - smashing one into pane...

This IS still about Mayfly, right?

Right?

You ask me to acknowledge other viewpoints? I do. How about you acknowledge mine? To me, she's a criminal still. Thats my viewpoint. Because I don't intend to just forgive right off the bat. A criminal action remains a criminal action. She didn't steal a candy bar from a drugstore. She attacked a ba...

I wouldn't look at her kindly in real life, and I don't do it here. I acknowledge her efforts, but her debt to society is unpaid, and should be.
